Overture to Tannhauser Concert Paraphrase for Piano Solo 李斯特 唐懷瑟序曲 改寫鋼琴曲 亨乐版

1876年回首往事時，李斯特坦率地向出版商佈雷特科普夫& 海特爾承認，他的《瓦格納轉述曲》"只是利用鋼琴的微弱可能性，為瓦格納的高貴天才作了適度的宣傳"。事實上，在 1850 年左右，瓦格納的歌劇《飛鳥集》、《唐豪瑟》和《羅恩格林》--這些後來大獲成功的歌劇--只是在李斯特的指揮下在魏瑪宮廷劇院上演。1848 年在魏瑪上演的序曲和 1849 年 2 月上演的整部歌劇啟發了李斯特創作《唐豪瑟》的靈感。李斯特為序曲所作的鋼琴改編曲是一首技藝精湛的上乘之作。它是亨勒的李斯特瓦格納改編曲系列中的又一里程碑"

原文簡介:
Looking back in 1876, Liszt admitted candidly to the publisher Breitkopf & Härtel that his “Wagner Transcriptions” had “only served as modest propaganda for Wagner's noble genius, using the meager possibilities of the piano.” In fact, around 1850, Wagner's operas Der Fliegende Holländer, Tannhäuser and Lohengrin – which would later be so successful – were only being performed at the Weimar Court Theatre under Liszt's baton. Liszt was inspired to compose his Tannhäuser Paraphrase by performances in Weimar of the overture in 1848 and of the whole opera in February 1849. Liszt's piano arrangement of the overture is a technically brilliant piece of the highest order. It is a further milestone in Henle's series of Liszt's Wagner arrangements.
