Liszt Ferenc: Hungarian Rhapsodies II. (Nos. X-XIX)
Ferenc Liszt, New Edition of the Complete Works, Series I (Works for piano solo), Vol. 4
The first 15 rhapsodies appeared in print in 1851-53, with numbers 16-19 written three decades later. Rhapsodies 1-15 and 19 can be traced back to foreign themes, while in nos. 16-18 Liszt used his own thematic ideas. By the 1880s Liszt's musical idiom had changed greatly: by then he was using a simpler, denser piano sound, but all the rhapsodies adhered to the 'lassú-friss' (slow-fast) structure.
As customary, there are two versions of the publication: a blue clothbound edition and a grey softcover edition. The preface, which gives the most important information on the contents and technical details, is identical in both versions, but only the former includes an English description of the sources and a critical commentary. Both versions include facsimiles of pages from Liszt's original autograph manuscript.
