André Watts: Piano Recital 1986
This remarkable pianist, born in 1946, is seldom heard in concert now, but this recital is treasurable. His Liszt is spacious, almost leisurely, and intensely poetic.

About

Andre Watts was born in 1946 and made his concert debut when he was only 9 years old. At the age of 16, Leonard Bernstein asked him to perform Liszt’s Piano Concerto No.1. Bernstein became Watts’ mentor. This all-Liszt recital, recorded in 1986, demonstrates what a great musician and breathtaking virtuoso he is.
