The Valse Impromptu is one of the witty, delicate and languid, brilliant and cheerful works from Liszt’s early years as a concert performer, but all revised and eventually published in 1852 during Liszt’s time at Weimar. Although it is by no means among Liszt’s well-known works, it is full of charm and originality, and its neglect seems inexplicable.Notes by Leslie Howard
