Liszt

[fleubis]

Now I'm having nightmares of a piano lesson from Rachmaninoff who has a ruler in his hand just waiting for my next mistake to slap down my already black-and-blue fingers. I may never recover from the 2nd universe of Pianophilia!

..I am quite sure that Rachmaninoff in his present state of existence
would treat you with „heavenly“ endurance...

Was Gott ...und Rosenthal thun das ist wohlgethan, dabei will ich verbleiben.

Liszt Variationen Weinen, Klagen ed. Rosenthal.pdf

[fleubis]

Ah, yes! The beautiful Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen variations. I was delighted to see Rosenthal highlight the georgeous central cadenza to which Liszt gives us a massive built-up -- see pg.14. This section as always been the real highlight for me.

Thank you, Alfred.

Friedmann had edited three volumes of Liszt compositions for Brietkopf & Hartel. I am not sure if they are still easily available, but would be curious to look at them.
Does anyone happens to have a digital copies of the three volumes???

Friedman in fact edited the majority of Liszt's works.
at least one more PP member evinces interest in these editions, I will upload a couple.

I am surprised NOT EVEN ONE SINGLE MORE PP member who are interested in Friedmann's Liszt editions (or for that matter, any other composers).

Could we have more please (pleading as in oliver twist).

Somehow I missed this! Friedman's Liszt would indeed be interest to me and others, I am sure!

Dear soh, dear fleubis,

Friedman edited not the complete works, but quite a large selection in 12 volumes
(some works also in single editions).
I will scan and post one by one...still planning to continue the „Czech weeks“...

You are welcome! Without your „devotedness“ I probably would post much less in this forum!!!

Thank you Alfred. You always post scores of interest. I still spend most of my time at the piano playing through the very interesting "undiscovered" music which you and others have posted and not so much reviewing various editions of the standard repertoire. Alas, there are just so many hours in a day. Today it's Dohler etudes.

For comparison, as promised.

Liszt Rem. de Don Juan ed. Pauer.pdf

audio:
Conrad HANSEN plays Mozart K 331
on a period instrument

[fleubis]

I, for one, will be pouring over the Pauer edition of Don Juan, merely for the exercise in seeing what different editors have to say about it. Certainly I'll never play it, but I do wonder if anyone really plays these operatic fantasies any more, I have heard only one operatic fantasy in concert: Horowitz Carmen--but no other. Those living in musical metropolises certainly may have heard one occasionally. The fact that Liszt wrote this one is what holds my interest.
