La Roque-d'Anthéron International Piano Festival - Liszt's Années de pèlerinage Book I - Switzerland.
Sarah Walker introduces more performances from last summer's festival in the heart of Provence. Sitting in the open air, surrounded by ancient trees and with the sound of cicadas in the background, audiences were treated to all three of Franz Liszt's atmospheric Years of Pilgrimage. Today, Tanguy de Williencourt plays Book I: Switzerland, a sublime fusion of art and nature. At least two of the movements of this first book of Années de pèlerinage were inspired by Liszt’s reading of the work of Lord Byron. And it's words by him which inspired the nocturnal movement in Rachmaninov's Suite for Two Pianos.
