The pre-eminent Lisztian of our day, Leslie Howard recorded every bar of the composer’s music for solo piano during the 1990s and 2000s, including many items new to the catalogue. This new album forms a significant appendix to that monument of gramophone history. Liszt’s pioneering series of 12 symphonic poems came to fruition during his time as Kapellmeister at the court of the Duke of Weimar in the 1850s, although the gestation of many of the pieces begins somewhat earlier. Liszt did not conceive the final order of the works until all the pieces were ready for publication, but it is clear that he thought of all 12 works as a gigantic cycle. He issued them in versions for orchestra, for two pianos, and for piano duet.
