Georg Solti and López-Cobos share conducting duties on this 2000 Decca recording pairing Liszt's two major symphonic poems. The Faust Symphony receives a distinguished reading emphasizing structural clarity, while the Dante Symphony offers a different but equally ambitious canvas—three movements representing Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise. The set also includes Les Préludes and Prometheus, two of Liszt's most colorful orchestral works. Les Préludes is a thrilling piece of 19th-century orchestral splendor that became hugely influential. The engineering is excellent with warm, spacious sound. This collection offers a comprehensive view of Liszt's symphonic ambitions and his profound influence on orchestral development.
