“Franz Liszt honoured on his 200th Birthday in Ilmenau”

(…) Cathleen Bergner (Thüringen) played Franz Liszt’s Ballad No. 2 in B Minor with mastery and devotion (…) Autumn storms gathered, the room ready to burst, sounds cascading upwards, and her proficient finger technique lulling the more oppressive passages back, in an instant, to the melody.”

(Karl-Heinz Veit, Thüringer Allgemeine)
