Tuesday Rhapsodies
For this week’s Rhapsody we return to Franz Liszt and his Hungarian Rhapsodies. This is number five, nicknamed the Héroïde-élégiaque performed by Roberto Szidon. There is also an orchestral version but at the moment I find myself liking the simplistic haunting quality of the piano here. It’s not quite as “bangy” as a lot of Liszt’s stuff.
