Liszt wrote little original music for two pianos, although he made a large body of arrangements, usually of orchestral pieces or works for piano or orchestra. His two important original works: the "Grosses Konzertstuck uber Themen aus Mendelssohns 'Lieder ohne Worte'" and the "Concerto pathetique" are issued together in this volume. The inventive and entertaining "Grand Concert-piece" on three of Mendelssohn's opus 19 "Songs without Words" is, extraordinarily, published here for the first time, and the authentic texts of both editions - neither available for more than a century - of the powerful "Concerto pathetique" are here printed in tandem for the first time.
