Liszt\\u2019s piano music is so much in the foreground that his works for orchestra have been almost forgotten. Here we present a fascinating selection.\\r\u003cbr\u003eLiszt\\u2019s Trois Odes fun\\xe8bres were composed between 1860 and 1866, and exist in a variety of versions: for orchestra, for piano solo and for piano duet. There is also a chorus in the first Ode and the possibility of a narrator in the first and second. The first is also an organ piece, with the title Trauerode, and La notte also exists for violin and piano. The third of the Odes is also entitled \\u2018Epilogue to the Symphonic Poem: Tasso, Lamento e Trionfo\\u2019, and in its orchestral version it enjoyed a certain vogue towards the end of the nineteenth century. Although it is quite clear from the original manuscripts that Liszt intended these works to be performed as a cycle, they have never been published together and have rarely been performed as he wished.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\u2018From the cradle to the grave\\u2019 was written after a drawing by the Hungarian artist Mihaly Zichy (1827\\u20131906) depicting three stages of existence: birth; the struggle for being; and death, the cradle of the life to come.\\r\u003cbr\u003eThe Faust legend preoccupied Liszt for much of his life, and inspired the composer\\u2019s most famous orchestral work, the Faust Symphony. However Zwei Episoden aus Lenaus Faust also contains some of the composer\\u2019s most thrillingly atmospheric music.\u003cp\u003eVon der Wiege bis zum Grabe S107\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrois Odes fun\\xc3\\x83\\xc2\\xa8bres S112\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eZwei Episoden aus Lenaus Faust S110\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55145715040641,"sku":"761227","price":12.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51JoEis9AeL._SL1500.jpg?v=1767819863","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/761227","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
