Seldom has the art of song transcription been more creatively
fashioned than in Liszt's homages to Schubert. In this third volume
of elegant and virtuosic pieces, Liszt's prodigious capacity for
colouration, shifting textures and use of myriad pianistic devices
to suggest changing verses, brings refinement and beauty to each
selected song. In songs such as Erlkönig and Die Forelle Liszt excels
in drawing the music from the salon to the concert platform. In this
recording, Goran Filipec, whose previous Liszt discs were praised
by Gramophone as 'nothing short of superb', includes some rare
versions of Liszt's transcriptions..
