Album insights
For a century and a half, the world's top pianists have been measuring themselves against Liszt's Etudes. Now, with Daniil Trifonov's recording, Deutsche Grammophon has released their first complete compilation of the Liszt Etudes. Trifonov, intensely focused, required only five days to record these emotionally and technically demanding pieces. The result is an exemplary recording that Liszt himself would have admired.
