The Italian pianist Michele Campanella is acknowledged as one of the foremost virtuosos and interpreters of the music of Franz Liszt. The Franz Liszt Society in Budapest has awarded him their Grand Prix du Disque on three occasions, and in 1986 the Hungarian Ministry of Culture presented him with a medal for “Services to Liszt”, as did also the American Liszt Society in 2002. The recording of Wagner transcriptions and late piano works by Liszt presented here was a milestone on the pianist’s route to becoming a Liszt expert. It is particularly notable for being made using Richard Wagner’s own grand piano, which dates from 1876 and can be found at the Villa Wahnfried in Bayreuth.
