The third concert etude in D-flat major from Liszt's Trois etudes
de concert will challenge advanced pianists with its constant
hand-crossings and varying number of cascading notes per measure in
the accompaniment. A lovely pentatonic melody is embedded in the
rolling arpeggio-like patterns, frequently played by alternating
hands throughout the piece. Keeping this cantando melodic line
distinct and phrased while transparently maintaining the flowing
accompaniment is the primary challenge of this masterwork. This
edition is based on Musikalische Werke herausgegeben von der Franz
Liszt-Stifung, Series II, edited by Ferruccio Busoni.
Masterful transcriptions include Rossini's "La Danza," Bach's "Organ Fantasy and Fugue in G minor," Beethoven's "Joyous gathering of the peasants" from the "Pastorale" Symphony, Mendelssohn's "Wedding March" and "Dance of the Elves" from A Midsummer Night's Dream, "The Trout" and "Erlkonig" by Schubert, the "Polonaise" from Tchaikovsky's Eugene Onegin, and many others.

piano virtuoso of the 19th century includes such masterworks as

This classic text represents the definitive account of the life of
the great Polish pianist/composer, Frederic Chopin. The story is
told by his friend and colleague, the legendary Hungarian pianist,
Franz Liszt-the ideal man to relate the brief, but brilliant life
