Lazar Berman

Plays Franz Liszt and Sergei Rachmaninov

Lazar Berman, piano

Live concert recording, Milan, 29th April 1976


On 29th April 1976 Lazar Berman gave, in Milan, one of the most extraordinary concerts of his career: a performance of Liszt\'s 12 Etudes d\'exécution transcendante which the people who were lucky enough to hear it will never forget. What had the critics in awe was undoubtedly Berman\'s programme: all of Liszt\'s 12 Transcendental Studies was a feat which only a few illustrious pianists had attempted before. But they were even more stunned when they saw the way Berman achieved his goal: after two hours of performance, after Rachmaninov\'s Six Moments Musicaux and - in the second half of the programme - Liszt\'s 12 Studies without interruption, the pianist, showing no sign of fatigue, generously gave the audience a series of very virtuosic encores, concluding with a spectacular Orage by Liszt. This double CD set contains all of that splendid concert, in a recording of exceptional sound quality.

Ample liner notes included.


Track List:

Rachmaninov: 6 Moments Musicaux op.16
Liszt: 12 Transcendental Etudes
Liszt: Sonetto no.104 del Petrarca
Rachmaninov: Prelude in G minor op.23 no.5
Liszt: Orage
