| |  | Franz Liszt: Mazeppa
Patrick Scheyder (piano Ignace Pleyel 1846) Patrick Scheyder takes a fresh look at the tradition of Liszt interpretations to reveal the long lost link between instrument and its specific technique. This recording, played on a Pleyel built in 1846, aims to turn this CD into a manifesto, as was the case with the poem Mazeppa, published by Victor Hugo in 1828.The last track is an improvisation, a personal and musical conclusion to the programme. The disc is illustrated by Horace Vernet's, Mazeppa and the wolves (1826). “The sound of Scheyder's 1846 piano bulges and wavers in such an alarming fashion that the attempt to evoke a sound or voice from the past is seriously qualified… the effect of all these ill-defined performance is strenuous and ungainly.” Gramophone Magazine, July 2008 | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |

In November 1822 , Schubert put the final touches to the 'Wanderer' fantasy in C major, the fruit of a commission from his exact contemporary, Emmanuel Karl von Liebenberg, a pupil of Hummel and most assuredly a seasoned pianist, to judge from the formidable difficulties with which this celebrated piece is studded. Never again did Schubert attain such virtuosity on the keyboard, and it was this virtuosity, as much as the novelty of the work's intentions, that fascinated Liszt, who seized on the fantasy, which he frequently performed in concert and transcribed for piano and orchestra. “French pianist Brigitte Engerer here explores a paradox - how music's supreme lieder composer also launched, with a single work, the virtuoso Romantic piano tradition. She conjures some remarkable sounds from Liszt's transcriptions, from 'Die Stadt' in particular.” BBC Music Magazine, May 2008 **** | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |

“Liszt's songs turn up far less frequently in recital than Schumann's, Brahms's or Wolf's… Ruth Ziesak's selection of 21… forms a good introduction to their varied merits, and her strong interpretative skills… stand her in good stead.” BBC Music Magazine, August 2008 **** | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |
