At the age of 14, he studied piano with Moscheles in London and gave his first public concert in May of that same year. He subsequently studied under Hummel and Czerny, and in 1835 traveled to Paris, where he was met with great acclaim as a pianist.\nIt is said that in 1837, he faced off directly against Liszt in a performance, and was praised with the remark: “Talberg is the world’s greatest pianist; Liszt is the world’s only pianist.” This album is a single-disc release from a 6-disc box set released in May 2021 (originally released by MARCOPOLO) and features five works based on melodies from Donizetti’s operas. While making full use of dazzling virtuosity, each piece offers a stylish interpretation of Donizetti’s beautiful melodies and is thoroughly captivating. The performer is Francesco Nicolosi, born in Italy in 1954. Not only is he a virtuoso, but as president of the Tarberg International Research Center, he is also dedicated to the study and promotion of Tarberg’s works.\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Naxos","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53374661656865,"sku":"4945604555029","price":2421.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4945604555029.jpg?v=1787632244","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4945604555029","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
