Two absolutely staggering tone-poems, the first of which is utterly exquisite in its marriage of liturgy and nature, and anticipates so many later composers too numerous to mention. The second is a dramatic/romantic sea evocation, still with spiritual undertones but less obviously so. "La Predication Aux Oiseaux" though....what an amazing piece!!

Köszönöm az értékelést
Thanks
Incredible. Feels like debussy wrote this.
Indeed, Debussy was enthralled and profoundly influenced by Liszt's innovations. Liszt was light-years ahead of his time.
Noseda's recording is the best when it comes to St. Francois de Paule.
Actually, James Conlon's version is the best ----->> on TH-cam: Liszt 2 Légendes S354 : II St Francis de Paule Walking on the Water (orchestra)
@@richdisilvio4591 It is a close call, Conlon is better in the "de paule" and Noseda in the Assisi.
@@ruramikael Agreed
