The album brings together\u003cbr\u003eBeethoven's groundbreaking Symphony No. 3 \"Eroica\" in Franz Liszt's\u003cbr\u003evirtuosic piano transcription and Arnold Schoenberg's politically\u003cbr\u003echarged masterpiece Ode to Napoleon. Originally dedicated to Napoleon\u003cbr\u003eBonaparte, Beethoven's symphony became the \"Eroica\" after Napoleon\u003cbr\u003ecrowned himself Emperor. For Igor Levit, the work continues to embody\u003cbr\u003ehuman resilience, inner strength, and artistic independence. Liszt's\u003cbr\u003eextraordinary transcription translates the symphony's orchestral power\u003cbr\u003eto the piano and remains a landmark achievement in the art of\u003cbr\u003etranscription. Levit places Schoenberg's Ode to Napoleon alongside it.\u003cbr\u003eWritten in exile in 1942 and based on a text by Lord Byron, the work\u003cbr\u003estands as a powerful musical indictment of tyranny and oppression.\u003cbr\u003eTogether with the Kammerakademie Potsdam under Antonello Manacorda and\u003cbr\u003eacclaimed actress Dörte Lyssewski as narrator, Levit delivers a\u003cbr\u003eperformance of striking intensity and contemporary relevance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e7 tracks\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTrack Listing\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e01.
