Liszt: Pilgrimage Years Vol.3

Franz Liszt was twenty-four when he began composing the Années de pèlerinage. He would continue to work on the cycle for the rest of his life. How to describe each of the pieces that make up this masterly achievement? As Liszt himself declared, it aims to express – more than words, more than images – an ineffable poetry of sound. "I admire the freedom with which the evocations of the soul, of nature, of the colours of the masters of Italian painting unfold in succession. Everything Liszt saw during his pilgrimage to Switzerland and Italy contributed to a process of reflection, a journey, a quest to bring him closer to his ideal where silence became the ultimate authority."
