Description:

The "Classical Masters" series. Jorge Sifra, who has been called "the second coming of Liszt" for his overwhelming technical brilliance, shows his full range in this masterpiece. This is an entertaining performance that showcases his superb technique in a spectacular manner. Not only the technique, but also the toughness of Sifra's unique touch that makes the piano itself sound, and the rich nuanced expression that is evident in the weakest notes, are noteworthy.
