Kissin Plays Liszt

This 2-CD collection illustrates Kissin's technical prowess and depth of expression, bringing together his great Liszt recordings on RCA Red Seal and Sony Classical. Recorded between 1987 and 2003, this set contains live recordings from Carnegie Hall, New York and Suntory Hall, Tokyo.

The five Liszt Transcendental Studies bring reminders of Kissin's own transcendental technique with a range of dynamics and colour capable of transforming the keyboard into a full orchestra. ... few meet Liszt s audacious challenges with a more daring spontaneity. Gramophone.
