“One of the hardest working pianists in the business, William Wolfram is nothing if not a consummate professional--an artist whose world-class technique, beautifully modulated sonority, and good taste inform everything he touches, including Liszt's oft-recorded concert etudes that open this release.” Classics Today | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |

“As his two previous Nimbus discs (3/95 and 7/95 – the latter including a fine performance of Liszt's Dante Sonata) show, Mark Anderson is a most musicianly pianist. His communicative ardour understandably made him an audience favourite at the 1993 Leeds Piano Competition and here, in this richly diverse programme, he again proves himself a born orator, declaiming Liszt's fantasy and nobility in generous-hearted fashion. At the same time all these performances (with the exception of the curiously elliptical and prophetic Vier kleine Klavierstücke which are played with a rapt concentration and intensity) have an off-the-cuff flavour with the spirit often engulfing the letter of the score” Gramophone Magazine | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |

A must have collection of Liszt’s works for piano performed by some of the greatest interpreters of his music. With a premiere division line up of pianists this 10 CD set offers the listener two performances of the B minor sonata by Gilels (captured in 1949) and Richter, the late Lazar Berman plays the Dante Sonata, the Transcendental Etudes, the Years of Pilgrimage Book 1and the Mephisto Waltz No.1. Recently retired Alfred Brendel is heard in the Three Sonnets after Petrach, the Paganini Etudes and a selection of opera paraphrases. The great Earl Wild puts his stamp on the Mephisto waltz No.1, and the Reminiscences from Robert leDiable, and Don Juan.The legendary Cziffra contributes more operatic paraphrases, this time Tannhauser and Rigoletto, plus Gnomenreigen and the Hungarian Rhapsody No.19. Expect the unexpected with Cziffra in this music – his performances were always at a white heat, and not for those of a delicate disposition! Listeners will have the opportunity to compare. Vladimir Ovchinikov’s recording of the Transcendental Etudes with Berman’s. Berman’s recordings today are hard to come by and this is a welcome reissue of this remarkable and elusive artist. The younger generation is represented by the outstanding Artur Pizarro performing the Hungarian Rhapsodies. Further information The Brendel recordings are from his highly acclaimed Vox recordings from the late 1950s which critics have preferred to his later Philips recordings. ‘Brendel was from square one a devout Lisztian and a true believer, his adroit pacing, his unfailingly architectronic timing of detail and dramatic events gives him a Toscanini-like impact’ Harris Goldsmith, on Brendel’s Weber/Liszt transcription of the Overture to Oberon. Wild finds exactly the right balance between devil-may-care energy and accurate virtuosity. Here on can sample Wild at something like his zenith as a Liszt player. Virtuosic, bordering on incendiary, but stand well back.’ Gramophone Ovchinikov’s Transcendental Etudes: ‘Extremely fine pianism… a superb achievement outclassing Bolet and Arrau in just about every department. Ovchinikov has set the standard and set it high.’ Gramophone Comprehensive booklet essay | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |
