FRANZ LISZT (1811-1886)/CARL TAUSIG (1841-1871): Faust Symphony, S 108 (World Premiere Recording).

Description: And if the Faust Symphony on period instruments isn’t unusual enough, then you can have it for solo piano in another technically challenging transcription by Tausig. Dating from 1857, it is of the version of the symphony which included a chorus. Since the Tausig fair copy includes sparse performance or dynamic markings, the pianist here relied upon the orchestral version for these. István Lajkó (piano).
