A Naxos CD, 8.550327, which contains a Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 in C#m, arranged for orchestra. In the program notes it's read,
"Hungarian Rhapsody, No. 2 (No. 12) the most popular of Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsodies, No. 2 in the orchestral arrangements the composer made with the aid of Franz Doppler,
and No. 12 in the set of 19 for piano, ..."
But when I listen to a DVD, Kissin (The Gift of Music), he plays Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No. 12 in C#m, it is totally a different piece! So I searched for Hungarian Rhapsody in google, it is strange that many websites give a different numbering, some of them have the No. 2 in GbM, some of them C#m, some of them Dm! The most problematic
is Liszt has written two Hungarian Rhapsodies in C#m, and some websites have listed both No. 2 an No. 12 in C#m. Which is correct? Or did Liszt or any publisher revised the number ?
But I've checked, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000002A9K/qid=1143299904/sr=8-2/ref=__2/102-9465889-0890563?s=music&v=glance&n=5174 (Also for orchestra, also written Hungarian Rhapsody, for orchestra No. 2 in C sharp minor (after piano No. 12), S. 359/2 (LW G21/2) ) (when you hear it you will find it should be actually D minor) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00005AVML/sr=8-1/qid=1143298074/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-9465889-0890563?%5Fencoding=UTF8 Cziffra playing Hungarian Rhapsody for piano, try to listen to No. 2 in C# minor This time orchestral no. 2 = piano no. 2, not piano no. 12 !! Still it is not solved
