Volume 15 of the Supplement Series presents an earlier version of the Concerto in a solo piano edition, along with earlier and alternate versions of Liszt original pieces and transcriptions. The paper and cloth editions have identical contents, but the cloth edition contains critical notes and commentary. This volume completes the initial phase of The New Liszt Edition. Series I: Works for Solo Piano (18 volumes), Series II: Free Arrangements and Transcriptions (24 volumes), and the Supplement to Series I and II (15 volumes) were presented over a span of almost fifty years. Every volume is available in both a paperback performing edition and a hardcover critical edition. See an overview of the New Liszt Edition at EMB's website.

Once Editio Musica Budapest had published critical editions of the complete piano solo works of Franz Liszt, they began work on a Supplement Series with the goal of publishing earlier and alternative editions of those works. Now in Volume 14, the editors present two alternate versions of the seminal Weihnachtsbaum: the first version (from autograph) and an early published version. Included also are alternate versions of his Annees de pelerinage, Troisieme annee and the Schlummerlied im Grabe, Die Trauergondel, and others. As always, both versions include background information on all pieces and facsimile copies. The hardbound edition includes all critical notes and a handsome blue hardcover, matching the rest of the series.

Supplement Volume 14 of the New Liszt Edition contains mostly unpublished early versions of piano works from the last two decades of the composer s life. The bulk of the volume comprises pieces from Volume 3 of Années de pelerinage and the Weihnachtsbaum cycle. Of the latter, two complete early versions are extant. One of these consists of pieces which are shorter and more condensed than the final version. For performer and listener alike, it is an exciting experience to become familiar with this set of pieces in its early form.Among the individual pieces in this volume, the autograph version of the beautifully evocative Schlummerlied im Grabe is also published here forthe first time. Finally, Liszt s characteristically economical attitude to composing can be studied in the original form of what can be considered as the common starting point for La lugubre gondola I and II. The latest volume of the New Liszt Edition also contains a detailed preface in German, English, and Hungarian, including new results of research, five manuscript facsimiles, and critical notes. Along with the cloth-bound Complete Edition, a paperback version for practical use has also been published. This edition s contents are identical to those of the hardcover edition, except for the omission of the critical notes. Dieser neue praktischen Zielen gerecht werdende Band basiert auf der neuen Liszt Ausgabe, erscheint allerdings ohne den Kritischen Bericht. Der neueste Band der Neuen Liszt-Gesamtausgabe umfasst ein detailliertes, neue Forschungsergebnisse enthaltendes Vorwort in deutscher, englischer und ungarischer Sprache.
Der vorliegende Band enthält die größtenteils unveröffentlichten Fru hfassungen von in den letzten zwei Jahrzehnten des Lebens des Komponisten entstandenen Klavierwerken. Das Ru ckgrat des Bandes bilden die Stu cke des III. Bandes der Pilgerjahre und aus Weihnachtsbaum. Von Letzterem sind zwei vollständige Fru hfassungen erhalten geblieben. Eine von ihnen besteht aus ku rzeren, kompakteren Stu cken als die endgu ltige Form. Fu r die Vortragenden und die ZuhörerInnen ist es ebenfalls ein spannendes Erlebnis, die Reihe in dieser fru heren Form kennenzulernen.

Composed in 1834, Liszt's Grand duo is based on material from three pieces from the first book (op. 19b) of Mendelssohn's Songs without Words (no. 1 in E major, no. 6 in G minor, and no. 3 in A major). While Liszt made an almost literal transcription of the first piece, he gave the second and third pieces a much freer arrangement, in the style of concert paraphrases. The large-scale concert piece was premiered by Liszt and Chopin on Christmas Day 1834 in a salon in Paris. The Grand duo was not published in Liszt's lifetime, and has survived as a draft.Schubert's Fantasy in C major (also known as the Wanderer Fantasy) was a defining musical experience for the young Liszt. He arranged this masterpiece of Romantic piano literature for piano and orchestra in 1851, at the beginning of his Weimar period, and it was premiered by Julius Egghard in Vienna in December of that year. By 1855, Liszt had transcribed this arrangement for two pianos, because it was played on 22 October 1855 at a concert held in Weimar in honour of his birthday. With the version for piano and orchestra, Liszt attuned the fantasy to the requirements of the concert hall, reinforcing the orchestral effects inherent in Schubert's composition. His aim with the two-piano version was to achieve a similarly grand effect in spaces too small for an orchestra. The arrangement for piano and orchestra appeared in print in 1857, followed by the two-piano version in 1862.This volume comes complete with a detailed preface in English, German, and Hungarian containing new research findings, several manuscript facsimiles, and a critical report in English.

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.

Supplementary Volume 16 of the New Liszt Edition contains free arrangements and technical exercises. In the first section can be found early versions of three arrangements. The first consists of the first and intermediary versions of a transcription of Die Rose, a song Schubert composed to a poem by Schlegel. The arrangement of the second movement of Berlioz's Harold Symphony also draws on literary inspiration: Lord Byron's (1788-1824) narrative poem Childe Harold's Pilgrimage (1812-18) was a literary experience Liszt shared with Berlioz. The fantasy on themes from Bellini's opera La sonnambula [The Sleepwalker] (here the first version of 1842, and the second version dating from the following decade are given) is important in music history because it was while he worked on this (and other operatic fantasies) that Liszt developed a new concept of the form, which took shape in more complex and more concentrated fantasies than before. Particularly interesting material can be found in the appendix. In addition to sketches and drafts for arrangements of Spanish themes, there are three sources published here for the first time, which shed light on technical aspects of Liszt's piano teaching. These are three sets of exercises: the first written by Liszt himself for Valérie Boissier in 1832; the second a copy in an unidentified hand from the same period or slightly later; and finally the third which was noted down in 1871 by Henri Maréchal in Rome based on the composer's dictation. This latest volume of the New Liszt Edition includes a detailed preface in German, English, and Hungarian containing new research findings, together with five manuscript facsimiles and critical notes. Simultaneously with the cloth-bound Complete Edition, a practical paperback version has been published, the contents of which are identical to those of the hardcover edition, minus the inclusion of critical notes.
