Brahms & Liszt Back 2 Back

Brahms & Liszt Cd - regular 12.95, limited quantity at this price.  18 greatest classics, over 75 minutes of music.  Johannes Brahms (German) and Franz Liszt (Hungarian) were both creating great music in the second half of the 19th Century when the boundaries of romantic expression were being pushed to their limit.  Brahms was a sober hardworking character whose passions were by and large channeled into his music.  Liszt on the other hand was a famous traveling virtuoso and led a life that mirrored the fantastic romance of his music.  Listening to these two together brings out the similarities and contrasts in an appealing album of well-known favorites.
