Franz Liszt
Piano Sonata b minor
The surviving autograph of Franz Liszt’s b-minor Sonata is a fascinating document that illuminates the compositional process: many cuts and paste-overs show how Liszt refined the architecture of the work. These paste-overs have since been removed and in our new edition we can see for the first time what is hidden behind them. The knowledgeable introduction by the Liszt expert Mária Eckhardt provides an abundance of information and a unique look over the composer’s shoulder.Video with facsimile: Claudius TanskiAudio example: Krystian ZimermanDeutsche Grammophon 028947796978GM2
