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.

De Liszt-uitgaves van Henle zijn altijd een wonder van overzichtelijkheid, zeker gezien de hoeveelheid noten. Wat daar sterk aan bijdraagt is dat de versierende coloraturen in een kleiner notenbeeld worden gestoken, zodat de structuur van de compositie niet wordt ondergesneeuwd, maar helder overeind blijft.
Pianowereld, 2012Pianists and students of Liszt can now rejoice that with this publication, the complete Années de Pèlerinage in four volumes is now available in a reliable 'Urtext' from Henle.
