It's me again March 22, 2004 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
Okay, a year or so has gone by since my short first review. In that time, I compared Leslie Howard's playing of the Transcendental Etudes to several other players. I still think that, pound for pound, Leslie Howard's performance is the best. Sure, Bolet and Arrau play the slower movements very distinctly, but their fast movements lack the savageness that I like to hear in Liszt. (You can guess that I'm a fan of Horowitz's performance of the "Rakoczy March" from his "Favorite Encores" CD.) If I find a better performance of these 12 Etudes, I'll let you know. But for now, it's Howard.
Liszt's powerhouse compositions played superbly September 17, 1999 7 out of 17 found this review helpful
Liszt's Transcendental Etudes, played superbly by Howard. What, I'm supposed to elaborate on that? Hardly!
