It was not that interesting. A bit about his phenomenal memory, and that he playd in the dark on stage ... that he concentrated on Bach-Brahms (whatever that...
Dmitri, could you tell us the name of the author of this article? For me the euphoric tone is rather astonishing. The general cliche certainly still is "first...

Hi, This Liszt Sonata was previously released on a Philips CD #422-137-2 with the wrong date attribution, and in absolutely dreadful sound. The Palexa version...
