Didgeridoos for unique Australian Aboriginal sounds​ La Danza and Other Great Piano Transcriptions

Franz Liszt (1811-1886) was not only a brilliant and innovative composer and the greatest piano virtuoso of the 19th century; he was also a generous popularizer of other composers' music. One of his primary methods was through his superb piano transcriptions of great orchestral, operatic, and other pieces. These transcriptions -- many of them masterpieces in their own right -- made it possible for people living far from the concert hall to re-create and enjoy music to which they would otherwise have had no access.
Liszt's incomparable mastery of the art of transcription is reflected in this rich selection of favorites, including Rossini's La Danza, Bach's Organ Fantasy and Fugue in G minor, Beethoven's Joyous gathering of the peasants from the Pastorale Symphony, Mendelssohn's Wedding March and Dance of the Elves from A Midsummer Night's Dream, The Trout and Erikönig by Schubert, the Polonaise from Tchaikovsky's EugeneOnegin, and many others.
