Franz Liszt - Douze Grandes Études, (Weber)

0:00 - C major, 1:04 - A minor, 3:48 - F major, 9:18 - D minor, (Wenbin Jin) 15:01 - B flat major, 18:57 - G minor, 24:48 - E flat major, 30:19 - “Pandaemonium“ C minor, 37:09 - A flat major, 47:45 - F minor, 53:08 - D flat major, 1:05:26 - B flat minor, I felt compelled to make this score video as the video of Wenbin Jin’s Naxos album has multiple irritating editing errors, uses an obsolete non-urtext edition, and Jin’s recording is sometimes hesitant and always earthbound. Janice Weber’s recording from 1988 even antedates Leslie Howard’s, and it is played confidently, smoothly, and with such zest and elan. I hope you enjoy this video of an underplayed and wickedly difficult set by Liszt. Pf: Janice Weber
