Often forgotten amongst stories of the mania surrounding his piano playing, Franz Liszt’s orchestral works are some of the greatest ever written. Credited with creating the symphonic poem genre, this 2 CD set from Eloquence is a fantastic introduction to the majesty of Liszt’s unsurprisingly unique look at the colours and programmatic value of the orchestra. Sir George Solti leads the charge with a selection of tone poems, and Ivan Fischer takes the baton to present the Hungarian Rhapsodies 1-6.
