Liszt Mephisto waltz abriged version
on: February 23, 2016, 04:10:26 AM
I read on the Henle Verlag website that Liszt "simplified" his Mephisto Waltz for a friend.
Does anyone know about this and where can I get the sheet?
I'm also looking for the Piano Duet sheet.
Thanks.
Morunful and yet grand is the destiny of the artist.
-Franz Liszt

I know, but I do not want to buy it, as it still may be totally unplayable for me, just interested how it sounds etc.
