Glittering Ilion, the city that rose and fell not once but twice . . .'_______The story of Troy speaks to all of us.
It is the kidnapping of Helen, a queen celebrated for her beauty, which sees the Greeks launch a thousand ships against that great city, to which they will lay siege for ten whole and very bloody years. It is Zeus, the king of the gods, who triggers war when he asks the Trojan prince Paris to judge the fairest goddess of them all. Aphrodite bribes Paris with the heart of Helen, wife of King Menelaus of the Greeks, and nature takes its course.
It is a terrible, brutal war with casualties on all sides. The Greeks cannot defeat the Trojans - since Achilles, the Greek's boldest warrior, is consumed with jealousy over an ally's choice of lover and will not fight . .

The story of Troy speaks to all of us - the kidnapping of Helen, a queen celebrated for her beauty, sees the Greeks launch a thousand ships against the city of Troy, to which they will lay siege for ten whole and very bloody years.

It is a myth in which we seek the truth about ourselves and which Stephen Fry brings breathtakingly to life.

Описание: The Trois tudes de concert, which was written at the beginning of Liszts work as a conductor in Weimar, appeared in three separate books in 1849.

Therefore it served as the main source for the new URTEXT edition presented here. The German and the French first editions of 1849 were used as a source of inspiration. The edition contains also Liszts short cadenzas to the Etude No. 3 and his alternative version of the Coda, which might also be interesting for
