"In the Faust Symphony, he [Karabits] handles the sprawling and discursive first movement impressively, moving between rumination and headlong energy in this character sketch of Faust." (BBC Music Magazine)
In Liszt’s Faust Symphony psychology enters music. It displays the power of sound, of tone painting, to evoke a fantastical, epic and psychological world. With his subtle and analytical interpretation of Goethe’s Faust, Liszt creates psychological tableaux, recorded by the Staatskapelle Weimar under the baton of Kirill Karabits.
