About

Rising young virtuoso pianist with a profound musical insight. One of Gramophone magazine’s piano experts, Bryce Morrison has written: “Levanon’s daunting technique allows him the fullest imaginative freedom …Already he is liberated from the cares and concerns of other lesser pianists, free to do virtually anything.”

This project is part of an ongoing Liszt cycle (Sonate B minor in 2022; Piano Concertos 1 & 2 + Totentanz in 2024) highlighting Yoav Levanon’s affinity for the composer’s virtuosic and poetic writing.

Liszt’s Transcendental Etudes are a monumental set of twelve virtuosic and expressive piano études showcasing Liszt’s technical brilliance. A high point in the Romantic repertoire, they are considered as some of the most difficult pieces for piano.

“When I approached the Transcendental Etudes, I knew I wanted to make one thing clear; that this project was never about virtuosity for its own sake. Instead, it was about what virtuosity allows us to uncover. Each piece is a universe of its own, inviting us into vast inner landscapes, full of hidden colours and meanings that demand something far deeper than brilliance.” – Yoav Levanon
