Rachmaninoff / Liszt

A recital as Babayan likes them: unexpected and varied, a journey that takes us from Schubert to the land of the Wizard of Oz. Sergei Babayan has devised an ideal program for a summer late afternoon. A program made largely of transcriptions: Schubert and Schumann lieder transcribed by Liszt, Rachmaninoff romances reduced for solo piano, a miniature by Kreisler revised by Rachmaninoff.
