In the new edition of the Etudes D'Exécution Transcendante (1851) the music text has been revised and corrected on the basis of numerous sources including the version of 1837 (Grandes Etudes) and complemented by hitherto disregarded variants and original fingerings by Liszt. In addition the critical edition of two 'Grandes Etudes' is published for the first time apart from an alternative version of étude no. 11 (Harmonies du soir) from 1876. The notes on interpretation are based exclusively on historical sources such as records from Liszt's pupils and the analysis of performance instructions in the early version.

The main part of Supplement Volume 12 features the predecessor of the Grandes Études de Paganini, a series of six études written after Paganini between 1838 and 1840, and referred to by Liszt as transcendent performance (Études d'exécution transcendante d'apres Paganini). The series was inspired not only by the virtuoso violinist and composer's Caprices and Violin Concerto in B minor but also by Schumann's Paganini Études, which Liszt presumably encountered thanks to Clara Wieck at the beginning of 1838. The volume also includes the first and second solo piano versions of Die Zelle in Nonnenwerth (1840 and 1841), which Liszt composed a number of times in several versions,as well as two Wagner transcriptions and the first versions of adaptations of two works by Russian composers. A detailed preface in Hungarian, English and German, including new research results, numerous manuscript facsimiles and critical notes make this volume of the New Liszt Edition a specially important publication of scholarly value. Simultaneously with the Complete Edition volume in cloth-bound, its paperback for practical purposes is also published, the contents of which, except for the critical notes, is identical with the Complete Edition volume. The GRANDES ETUDES D´APRES PAGANINI are a series of six études for the piano written by Liszt. The pieces are based on the compositions of Niccolò Paganini for violin.

Liszt first composed these etudes at 14 years old in the year 1825. Just 25 years later, after being revised repeatedly, they appeared under the title of Transcendental Etudes (12 Études d exécution transcendante).This edition has found a place among the renewed publications in our Music Lesson series, and it features revised fingerings, performer s notes, and a preface all written by pianist Kornél Zempléni. He believed that Liszt s Op. 6 serves as the ideal introduction into the technique and musical elements needed for students to successfully study the Transcendental Etudes. Regarding the 12 Etudes for Piano, Zempléni had this to say: ''With this publication we hope tocontribute something both to the advancement of the young pianist and to the increased appreciation of Liszt s art.'' Liszt's 12 Etudes has been renumbered as his Op. 6 according to the most recent research, but in terms of content this publication corresponds with the volume which was formerly labeled as his Op. 1. (catalogue number Z. 766).
