Liszt: Fantasie un Fuge
On October 22, 2011, the musical world will celebrate the 200th birthday of Franz Liszt. Garrick Ohlsson, one of the great piano virtuosi of the current era, contributes to the celebration with recordings of two of Liszt’s towering achievements: the infrequently recorded Busoni transcription of Liszt’s organ piece, “Fantasie und Fuge über den choral Ad nos, ad Salutarem Undam”, (To us, to the healing waters, come again) S. 259 and, the most beloved of all of Liszt’s piano compositions, the Sonata in B Minor, S. 178. Those who revel in great pianism need look no further than this spectacular program. Garrick Ohlsson also recently completed the 32 Beethoven sonatas for Bridge with the release of BRIDGE 9274A/B.
