LISZT, Franz
(1811-86)
Consolation by Franz Liszt is a lush, modern sounding character
piece whose subtlety is enhanced on the guitar. MIDI sound file of
Consolation. [1 page, 49KB]

Cradle Song by Franz Liszt. Written toward the end of Liszt's
life, the Cradle Song has none of the brilliant display that is often
associated with his music and it fits quite easily on the guitar. The harmonic
language is advanced, yet still accessible, and there are few fingering
difficulties. Listen for subtle rhythmic shifts within the gently rocking
context. MIDI sound
