Les Préludes

While still in Weimar, Tausig transcribed for piano Liszt's Symphonic Poems as well as the Dante and Faust symphonies. These manuscripts, left unfinished to a greater or lesser extent, have remained unpublished. In fact, three manuscripts of the eleven transcriptions of symphonic poems are missing. Of Tausig's transcriptions of Liszt's works, this volume makes Les Préludes available to a wider public in a printed edition.
