Franz Liszt

Sonata in B minor Franz Liszt

Urtext edition of Franz Liszt's Piano Sonata in B minor, edited by Dr Leslie Howard, one of the greatest modern-day exponents of Liszt's piano music. This landmark edition of arguably the composer's greatest work, the 'Grand Sonate pour le Pianoforte' according to the manuscript, now known as the 'Sonata in B minor'. Given the radical nature of this music, the composition date of 1853 might seem surprisingly early.

Superlatives abound when describing this monumental masterpiece, and they are fully justified.
