Volumes I/15-17 of the New Liszt Edition contain the piano versions of Liszt's own works for other instruments or voices. Volume 16 features the piano version of several works with a Hungarian connection, such as the fantasy written to the melodies of the Szózat and the National Anthem, the Hungarian Coronation Mass and the Hungarian March for Coronation Ceremonies; several piano works are keyboard transcriptions of excerpts from large-scale compositions for orchestra or choir and orchestra, such as a few movements of the oratorio Christus or the Legend of Saint Elizabeth.

As far as possible, the pieces are given in chronological order. In the footnotes, as well as editorial comments we give the performance indications that August Göllerich noted down in 1884-86, when he took piano lessons from the composer.

As customary, there are two versions of the publication: a blue clothbound edition and a grey softcover edition. The informative preface giving the most important information on the contents and technical details is identical in both versions, but only the former version includes an English description of the sources and a critical commentary. At the beginning of the volume can be found a facsimile of a page from Liszt's original autograph manuscript.
