Russian pianist Yury Martynov presents the second volume of the complete recording of the cycle of Beethoven s symphonies, as transcribed for the piano by Franz Liszt. For both the pianist and the listener, this recording constitutes a genuine adventure, combining the creative genius of Beethoven, the inspired vision of these works by composer and pianist Franz Liszt, and a piano with the same sonic resources that were available to Liszt. For these two symphonies, Martynov has chosen the same Érard piano of 1837 on which he recorded the first volume of this series. That CD, featuring Symphonies 6 & 2, received a particularly warm welcome from the press including a Choc de Classica in May 2012.
