Charlotte Hu’s Transformative Journey Through Liszt’s Piano Music
Digital Only Album – Not Available on CD or SACD

Pianist Charlotte Hu (formerly known as Ching-Yun Hu) presents Liszt: Metamorphosis, her debut album for Pentatone.

On it, Charlotte explores Hungarian composer and virtuoso pianist Franz Liszt’s chameleonic and evolving approach to composing – the metamorphosis of his music spanning from his early works inspired by Beethoven to the abstract tonality of his later works, as well as his incredible ability to transcribe and transform the music of other composers he admired.

This digital release includes Liszt’s Les jeux d’eau à la Villa d’Este (The Fountains of the Villa d’Este) from 1877; his Lieder Transcriptions of art songs by Schumann and Schubert from 1838 and 1848;
Three Concert Études from 1845-49; and Rhapsodie espagnole (Spanish Rhapsody) from 1858. A perennial favourite with Hu’s audiences, Liszt: Metamorphosis explores works that showcase the important role literature, spirituality, and travel play in Liszt’s music for solo piano. Nuanced and multifaceted, Charlotte takes the listeners through the evolution of Franz Liszt through his many creative stages: a storytelling of an emotional and spiritual- filled journey.
