Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, tonight I propose that we listen to the two Lisztian sonatas: the one in B minor and the fantasy quasi-sonata from the 2nd year of pilgrimage based on a reading of Dante's Divine Comedy.

dI must say, the second audio of the '59 Dante doesn't particularly blow me away; I have an Emi recording on CD that is decidedly better... but this will do.

if any good soul feels like telling us how these two sonatas are structured, I would say thank you very much

...are you aware of how much work it would take?

For the Dante sonata I found these 2 links, I haven't read them... these could also be a useful starting point:

I took a look at the index of this last one (aside from having downloaded it)
