About Franz Liszt's 2 Concert Etudes

The two studies in this collection were composed in Rome in 1862. Liszt wrote them to fulfil a promise he had made to produce a couple of pieces for the so-called Grand Theoretical and Practical Piano School by Siegmund Lebert and Ludwig Stark, a piano method which was translated into several languages and widely distributed in both Europe and America.

Liszt was apparently quite satisfied with the result - he played the 2 Etudes himself in a number of concerts, published them independently the following year, and dedicated them to one of his pupils, Dionys Pruckner.
