TWELVE TRANSCENDENTAL ETUDES
Etudes d'execution transcendante

Liszt understood the appeal of virousity, and it was rare for him not to impose great demands on the pianist. In these Etudes, equal weight is given to musicality as to technique. Within these Twelve Etudes there is such a variety of musical expression, it can be said there is truly something for everyone's varied sensibilities. The range of Liszt's expressions is captured by Christopher's unique ability to reveal these expressions through his phenomenal interpretation of these astounding pieces.
