Liszt, Franz. (1811–1886) [Schubert, Franz. (1797–1828)]. "Sei Mir Gegrüsst," Lieder von Fr. Schubert für das Piano-Forte übertragen.. Wien: Ant. Diabelli. [1838]. First edition. 4to. 7 pp. Engraved. [PN] 6531. Scattered foxing, overall very good. The first of Liszt's arrangments of Schubert's songs. Weinmann 2, p. 105; Raabe 243.
"Liszt arranged more than fifty songs by Schubert for piano solo... As can be gathered from a review appearing on 7 December 1839 in the Wiener Zeitschrift fur Kunst, Literatur, Theater und Mode, at the time these transcriptions were highly prized and appropriately appreciated: 'In the transcriptions of Schubert Lieder, [Liszt] has created a new genre. Here is an excellent effort to reproduce the melodic and harmonic beauty of the new classical Lied as a lyric entity on the piano alone; and to manage this perfectly, as if with the power of the vocal line and declamation, without sacrificing in the process any of his pianistic richness. [Liszt's] artistic, characteristic, and tasteful treatment [has] raised these peices to performance favorites almost everywhere. Now Schubert's immortal songs need remain no longer the [sole] property of the accomplished singer.'" (Martin Chusid, "A Companion to Schubert's Schwanengesang," p. 10-11)
