Corie Stanton Root writes in allmusic.com...
"Because of Franz Liszt's commanding position in the music world during the mid and late nineteenth century, he was able to mould and popularise the compositions of other composers that he felt were worthy. He had a particular affection Schubert's music and this is reflected in his more than sixty transcriptions of Schubert's songs. Liszt played many of these works in his concert programs during his years as a travelling virtuoso.
James Lisney enjoys a rich musical life, moving seamlessly from concerto and recital soloist to chamber musician, song accompanist and pianist director. Initiatives, such as his Schubertreise series at London’s Southbank Centre, his extensive Beethoven Project or the recording company Woodhouse Editions, provide a platform for his wide-ranging musical sympathies.
