About

This disc forms the third collaboration from Laurence Equilbey and Brigitte Engerer, after their previous recordings of Brahms’s German Requiem and Transcriptions 2. This latter was recently voted Editor’s Choice in the March 2007 issue of Gramophone on top of the Editor’s Choices garnered for the first Transcriptions disc (V4947) and their disc of Poulenc works (V4883).
 
The focus of the programme on this new disc is Via Crucis, an unjustly neglected masterpiece by Liszt, and arranged here for piano accompaniment rather than the usual organ. It features alongside the composer’s Harmonies Poétiques et Religieuses, one of his most personal and confessional piano cycles, transcribed for choir.
