Description

“I believe everyone who is not completely indifferent to Liszt’s work and person is deeply moved when they enter Franz Liszt’s birthplace in Raiding. When I played here for the first time in 2010, I felt as though I had been carried on wings from the first to the last note. And this feeling accompanies me every time I step onto the stage of the Raiding Concert Hall.” (Boris Bloch). Now released for the tenth season of the Liszt Festival Raiding, this edition of live recordings of Boris Bloch’s Liszt recitals includes the complete “Années de pèlerinage” I–III on 6 CDs, as well as “Harmonies poétiques et religieuses,” opera paraphrases on works by Handel and Wagner, polonaises, concert études, and other, mostly smaller, piano pieces. Unrivaled sensory experiences with inimitable authenticity from one of the greatest Liszt interpreters of our time.
