This recording was made several years ago. I really need to re-record this piece because I have since gained a much deeper appreciation for the piece and I feel as though my interpretation of it has greatly improved. I also now conclude this piece with Listz's alternate ending which concludes in a whole-tone scale with the left hand and accompanying chords in the right. I prefer this ending over the original because I have a particular affinity towards the whole-tone scale... it reminds me of the eternal nature of life and my deep faith in religion and a Heavenly Father (God) who loves us. http://www.lisztonian.com/titles/Concert+Etude+No+3+in+D+flat+Major-23.html http://www.lisztonian.com/images/lisztonian.jpg http://www.lisztonian.com/music/download/Consolation+in+E+Major+No+1-57.mp3 Franz Liszt Performed by Jeremiah Jones. The six consolations by Franz Liszt are deeply emotional and inspiring pieces. Each one has so many different ways of being interpreted. Each performance should be unique and draw on the emotions of the performer and listeners. This recording is from a live performance from January of 2003. It was recorded using a nine-foot concert grand piano. http://www.lisztonian.com/titles/Consolation+in+E+Major+No+1-57.html http://www.lisztonian.com/images/lisztonian.jpg http://www.lisztonian.com/music/download/Nocturne+in+A+flat+Major+No+3-58.mp3 Franz Liszt Performed by Jeremiah Jones. This piece I have always lovingly dedicated to my grandmother. During the Great Depression, she used to listen to this song and it would uplift and lighten her spirit. She often requested that I perform this piece at her funeral. Her request was humbly granted at the time of her passing. This piece is one of Liszt's most popular piano pieces and remains a personal favorite of mine. http://www.lisztonian.com/titles/Nocturne+in+A+flat+Major+No+3-58.html http://www.lisztonian.com/images/lisztonian.jpg http://www.lisztonian.com/music/download/Transcendental+Etude+No+1-42.mp3 Franz Liszt Performed by Jeremiah Jones. This is the first in the set of 12 Transcendental Etudes. The set of Etudes is wonderful and this piece provides a great "prelude" into the rest of the series. http://www.lisztonian.com/titles/Transcendental+Etude+No+1-42.html http://www.lisztonian.com/images/lisztonian.jpg http://www.lisztonian.com/music/download/Transcendental+Etude+No+11-59.mp3 Franz Liszt Performed by Jeremiah Jones. This recording is a live performance given at a solo recital in January of 2003. The recording was made on a nine-foot concert grand piano in a small recital hall. This Etude was the first of Liszt's transcendental Etudes that I studied. I fell in love with the harmonies and chord progressions that Liszt uses in this piece. It also happened to be the piece that I was working on when I first met my wife. For that fact, this work is among our favorites. http://www.lisztonian.com/titles/Transcendental+Etude+No+11-59.html http://www.lisztonian.com/images/lisztonian.jpg
