Music reviews of Schubert-Liszt Lieder Transcriptions
Music Review: Better than the real thing?
Rating: 5 Stars
Liszt was a devourer of anything great that came along. Typically, his transcriptions and paraphrases tell you that the original piece is itself a masterpiece. This Schwanengesang is no exception. It shows that great music doesn't need words and as much as one may like the cycle's poems, its music perfectly stands alone. And Liszt's transcription is so good that, to use a horrible contemporary expression, he really does add value to it and makes it a piece in its own right (unlike Brahms's transcription of the Bach Chaconne but like Busoni's)
Now Chiu: energetic, passionate, virtuosic ... all three qualities that are sadly absent from Leslie Howard's encyclopaedic but plodding renditions on Hyperion (he even plays two versions of the transcription). Perhaps one may have hoped for slightly more obvious sensibility from Chiu but his drive saves his enterprise. Highly recommended. If someone is looking alone for the famous St?ndchen, the "Horowitz at Home" CD on DG comprises the best imaginable with the famous echoes played with unbelievable wizardry! And this Horowitz CD also includes two Soir?es de Vienne that shows us what piano playing should be. But back to Chiu: buy it! No buy both the Chiu and the Horowitz!
