Composer Biography
Franz Liszt, a traveling virtuoso, sometimes left entire songs in guest books after performing at noble houses or evening soirées.
Composition History
Liszt's song output is surprisingly extensive, with about 85 distinct songs or 'titles,' and up to 140 if including his revisions or new versions.
Performer Biography
Konstantin Krimmel, the baritone on this album, is of German-Romanian descent and began his musical training with the St. George's Choir Boys in Ulm.
Composer's Artistic Vision
Liszt did not use opus numbers for his songs, which means they are not grouped into cycles like those of other composers such as Johannes Brahms.
Performer Biography
Daniel Heide, the pianist on this album, is the founder and artistic director of 'Der lyrische Salon,' a concert series at Ettersburg Castle near Weimar dedicated exclusively to art song.
Composition History
Many of Liszt's songs remain unpublished or are only available in rare, out-of-print editions, making a complete overview difficult.
