For Liszt’s biographer Derek Watson – “The music reflects the man in its range from the ascetic to the sumptuous, from the trivial and profane to the sublime and spiritual.” Alfred Brendel, another Liszt-admirer, has remarked: “For Liszt … the piano was an object to be transformed into an orchestra, turned into the elements, lifted into the spheres.” In addition to this keyboard-related revolution, Liszt’s harmonic language deeply influenced Wagner, while his pioneering development of the symphonic poem genre also contributed to his far-reaching influence.Liszt’s Trois Études de Concert S 144 (Trois caprices poétiques in the 2nd edition) date from 1848.
The origin of their individual titles (Lamento, La Leggierezza Sospiro) which were added later, is something of a mystery, but they have proved to be generally popular and evidence suggests that Liszt himself was happy with them.

Liszt was only twenty-two when he composed the three Apparitions. These innovative, surprisingly forward-looking pieces are among the most important of his early works, imbued with an otherwordly spirit, suspended and dream-like.
