Franz Liszt
Venezia e Napoli
About three years after the publication of the second volume of his “Années de Pèlerinage” (Italy), Liszt added a supplement to this collection: the triptych “Venezia e Napoli”.
For this he reworked two of four pieces which he had already composed in 1840 after a journey to Italy, grouping them around an adaptation of the gondola song “Nessun maggior dolore” from Rossini’s “Otello”. It is diffi cult to imagine the piano repertoire without the furious “Tarantella” in particular, which brings this supplement to a close after the two rather lyrical pieces “Gondoliera” and “Canzone”. With the publication of this supplement all works pertaining to the “Années de Pèlerinage” are now available in Henle Urtext.
About the Composer
Franz Liszt
The most famous piano virtuoso of the nineteenth century is regarded as the most influential artist and composer (with Berlioz, Wagner) of the so-called New German School. His immense musical oeuvre comprises, above all else, works for solo piano, including numerous transcriptions; he also devised the symphonic poem. Important, too, are his sacred and secular choral works and songs.
