'Liszt at his most unpretentious, fresh and direct … Howard is here at his warmest, bringing out how Liszt's genius developed' (The Guardian)

'Lost treasures unearthed … This invaluable disc crowns Leslie Howard's Herculean Liszt cycle recorded on 95 CDs' (Gramophone)

Liszt was a Very Prolific Composer. Having already recorded 95 CDs of his 'complete' piano music, the indefatigable Leslie Howard, after deep burrowings in the Goethe- und Schiller-Archiv in Weimar has found more - enough in fact to fill this supplementary disc, including the Album of Princess Marie zu Sayn-Wittgenstein, the Zigeuner-Epos, the original La lugubre gondolaand other rare pieces. Needless to say all are first recordings.

Tracks:

The Album of Princess Marie zu Sayn-Wittgenstein (1847)
Zigeuner-Epos, S695b (c1848)
Célèbre mélodie hongroise, S243a
Three early drafts of pieces in the Troisième année de pèlerinage
Three Album-Leaves
O lieb, so lang du lieben kannst!, S540b
