Product description

Immerse yourself in the profound and introspective world of Franz Liszt's late piano works, masterfully interpreted by the acclaimed pianist László Borbély. Released on October 29, 2021, by Hunnia Records, "Songs of Sorrow and Consolation" is a captivating collection of 22 pieces that showcase Liszt's mature compositional style, blending technical brilliance with deep emotional resonance.

Spanning a duration of one hour and one minute, this album features a diverse range of compositions, from the fiery "Mephisto Waltzes" to the serene "Sospiri!" and the hauntingly beautiful "En rêve." Borbély's nuanced performances bring out the subtleties and complexities of these works, offering a fresh perspective on Liszt's later creations.

The album's title, "Songs of Sorrow and Consolation," reflects the duality of human experience, as these pieces oscillate between melancholy and solace. Borbély's delicate touch and dynamic control allow the listener to appreciate the intricate details and emotional depth of each composition.
