Link to the Show / Show NotesMarc-André Hamelin seems to be recording continuously, in some of the most interesting corners of the piano repertoire. Godowsky, Grainger and Kapustin are some of the composers he champions. Here, from his recent visit to our WGBH Studio, he plays two serene pieces by Liszt, inspired by the Italian poet Petrarch. Serenity itself!
Franz Liszt: Petrarch Sonnet No.104; Petrarch Sonnet No.123.
Marc-André Hamelin, piano
