Poème symphonique pour grand orchestre (d'après Lamartine)
While still in Weimar, Carl Tausig transcribed for piano Liszt's symphonic poems as well as the Dante and Faust symphonies. These manuscripts, left unfinished to a greater or lesser extent, have remained unpublished. As a matter of fact, three manuscripts of the eleven transcriptions of symphonic poems are missing. Of Tausig's transcriptions of Liszt's works the present volume makes Les préludes available to a wider public in a printed edition.
