Info for Liszt Recital



Following on from her hugely successful Chopin recordings, renowned Canadian pianist Janina Fialkowska has recorded a personal selection of Liszt’s solo piano music.

"The emphasis here is on variety within variety, on Liszt's generous and extraordinary response to other composers...Fialkowska takes the Faust Waltz by virtuouso storm...We need many more records from this master-pianist" (Gramophone Magazine)

"an enchanting recital...The poise, spectrum of tone and sheer naturalness of her playing makes the Bénédiction de Dieu dans la solitude utterly compelling, the instinctive expressiveness of Liszt’s Chopin arrangements likewise...this is a disc to be treasured by admirers of elegant pianism." (The Telegraph)

"Liszt discs aren’t thin on the ground but this one stands out...the playing of these lesser-heard pieces is magical. Highlights are the sublime Bénédiction de Dieu dans la Solitude; the joyously rippling Chopin paraphrases, Six Chants Polonais; and Gretchen, the composer’s rapturous transcription of the slow movement from his Faust Symphony." (The Times)

"There’s not a dud moment in the recital. And this is impressive playing on any account, more so when you read that Fialkowska’s career was nearly derailed by a tumour discovered in her arm in 2002. After groundbreaking, successful treatment she resumed playing in 2004 and sounds better than ever. I think I’m now a paid-up Liszt fan." (The Arts Desk)
