This is a brilliant and beautiful thing. It's so hard to find good classical music, especially if you're a mere college student. You are an oasis for me. Thank you from the depths of this soul.

Hi Ian, thanks for your comment. i'm glad you like the Liszt, it's a very special piece, & therefore surprising that more people haven't come across it.

best wishes! s.

If you like this work (I am a huge fan of it), of all the recordings I’ve heard, I like those by Reinbert de Leeuw. He has recorded it three times, the earliest was with the Netherlands Chamber Choir, then he did a piano solo version (no choir). His most recent recording is wonderful. Collegium Vocale Gent with piano.
