Although Liszt’s thirteen symphonic poems exist in two-piano
transcriptions prepared by the composer himself, it was his Czech student August
Stradal (1860–1930) who transcribed twelve of them for solo piano
– versions which demand almost superhuman virtuosity. Stradal died before
he could tackle the last of the symphonic poems, Von der Wiege bis zum Grabe;
Risto-Matti Marin has made good that lacuna with his own virtuoso transcription,
and adds six of Stradal’s transcriptions of Liszt songs for good measure.
