Franz Liszt
Rigoletto - Concert Paraphrase
> If one ignores the fact that at this point in the opera the betrayal of Gilda's love is made known, the work offers no sign that it was written at a time of deep depression: Liszt’s hope of legally marrying Princess von Sayn-Wittgenstein was slowly disappearing. Maybe Liszt's opera paraphrases are therefore to be understood as memories of happier times in Weimar.

Henle here continues its superb rebranding of Liszt works, familiar and less so, providing a wealth of excellent background information as well as lucidity, elegance and practicality. ... It is extremely useful here to have creative yet practical fingering for the extended quasi cadenza flourishes by none other than Marc-André Hamelin. This is quite a coup for Henle, and indeed the edition is well worth purchasing for Hamelin's input alone.
Piano International, 2011De uitgave van Henle is zonder meer ideaal. De virtuoze omspelingen zijn in een kleiner notenbeeld gestoken dan de vocale partijen. Dat biedt direct een (visueel) inzicht in de structuur van de compositie.
