Italian pianist Manuel Cini takes us on a voyage through the highly dramatic and passionate cycle of Liszt’s 12 Transcendental Études. Unlike technical studies aimed to develop and reinforce specific aspects of piano playing, Liszt’s studies are incredibly vivid and profoundly imaginative; gems of the piano repertoire. Among many other accolades, Cini won First Prize at the Franz Liszt Center Piano Competition in 2021, reflecting his affinity with this repertoire.
