Overview

VISIONS: Chamber Music by Franz Liszt is a unique collection from Oehms Classics that sheds light on the less-known but equally profound chamber works of the great Romantic composer, Franz Liszt. Far from his celebrated piano virtuosity, this album showcases Liszt's intimate musical voice through duos, trios, and string quartets.

The album features an exceptional ensemble of artists, including violinist Ingolf Turban, cellist Wen-Sinn Yang, and pianist Lukas Maria Kuen. Highlights include the emotional Duo-Sonate for Violine und Klavier and arrangements like the dazzling VALSE CAPRICE (Nr. 6) aus den „Soirées de Vienne" (an arrangement of Schubert/Liszt, further arranged by David Oistrach). The recording concludes with pieces inspired by Liszt's close friend Richard Wagner, such as Richard Wagner: VENEZIA and AM GRABE WAGNERS. With a total runtime of nearly 75 minutes, this CD offers an insightful exploration of Liszt's diverse and often deeply spiritual chamber output.
