Search - Michael Korstick :: Liszt: Harmonies poetiques et religieusses

Franz Liszts mystical piano cycle, Harmonies Poetiques et Religieuses takes its title from a collection of poems by the French romanticist Alphonse de Lamartine and underwent an unusally long period of gestation, written over a period of two decades. Liszts religious and abiding preoccupation with poetic themes in his creative works was in part fueled by his passion for the works of and friendship with de Lamartine. Given a splendid interpretation by pianist, Michael Korstick.
