About This Song
About "Piano Concerto No. 2 in A Major, S. 125 : Liszt: Piano Concerto No. 2 in A Major, S. 125: I. Adagio sostenuto assai" by Daniel Barenboim
The opening Adagio sostenuto assai of Liszt's Second Concerto is a dark, lyrical reverie. Barenboim's piano sings over hushed orchestral strings, the melody a solitary voice in a vast hall. The calm is majestic but fragile, a prelude to the agitation to come.
