Author Description

Liszt composed the first version of his Réminiscences de Don Juan (Raabe 228, Grove 418) for the piano, for two hands, in 1841, and it was published by Schlesinger in Berlin in 1843. The date of composition of the second version for two pianos (R. 379, G. 656) is not known, but this work was also published by Schlesinger in 1877, and this publication has served as the basis for our edition. The editor's additions are indicated by square brackets, or, in case of ligatures, by broken lines.
