Christopher
Duigan ‘Liszt vs Liszt’
 Christopher Duigan
presents an outstanding selection of music by Franz Liszt on the 200th
anniversary of his birth. Probably the greatest pianist of all-time,
Hungarian-born Franz Liszt (1811-1886) was a pianist of extraordinary technical
and musical virtuosity. Selecting from his all-Liszt programmes presented this
year Duigan features a number of contrasting performance pieces from Liszt’s
varied output. In this Sunday afternoon concert Duigan plays the Hungarian
Rhapsodys Nos. 2 & 6, La Campanella, La Leggierezza together with music
from Years of Pilgrimage, Liszt's most extensive and poetic work. Christopher
Duigan is a Steinway Artist.
