Liszt's Wake-up Call for Val
on: December 31, 2015, 04:08:35 AM
Hey, you guys.... yeah, YOU!
Remember when the superstar pianist Valentina Lisista was the only one who recorded Liszt's Rondeau Fantastique sur "La Contrabandista"? Well, things are shifting dramatically now.... recently, Drew Peterson made an amazing performance of it in the Semifinals of the prestigious Leeds Competition:

Also, the Liszt Competition in Ultrecht has updated its repetoire requirements: they give the contestants a list of pieces containing, most notably, the Douze Grandes Etudes of 1837 and the Etudes d'execution transcendante on Paganini, as well as the Rondeau! WHAT IS THIS MADNESS?
Well, I guess Liszt is giving Val a rude awakening!

The rondo was unknown to most people,also the douze and the Paganini Transcendentals,they're just getting more popular.
I'm glad,by the way,I consider both of the earlier sets better than their known counterpart.
