LISZT: Beethoven - Symphony No. 9 (arr. for 2 pianos) (Liszt Complete Piano Music, Vol. 28)Pianist Franz Liszt agonized over his transcription of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony - he loved the music of Beethoven and wanted to get it just right.

In the end, his transcription for two pianos is absolutely brilliant.

It’s not a substitute for the symphony, but still a great way to listen to this symphony.

Catalogue No.: Naxos 8.570466
