Last week Mr. Hendrik Decker was so kind to contact me about Liszt’s transcriptions of Rossini’s Stabat Mater. Mr. Decker wrote:

Today I assisted a performance by Albert Martínez-Lorente Romero (trombone) and Francisco Javier Jiménez Martínez (church organ) of an arrangement of the Cujus Animam movement of Rossini’s Stabat Mater by Franz Liszt, in the Jesuit church Iglesia del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús in Valencia (Spain), I thought that this might be of interest to you, since, on your web page that covers Liszt’s Stabat Mater, no mention is made of the existence of Liszt’s arrangement of Rossini’s Cujus Animam, originally for piano. Apart from the original arrangement for piano and the version of Liszt’s arrangement of Rossini’s Cujus Anima for organ and trombone, as heard today, also an adaptation of Liszts’ arrangement of Rossini’s Cujus Anima for organ and voice exist, according to what can be foud of the world wide web…

As I could not imagine that Hans would not have known about these Liszt transcriptions, I checked, and indeed on the Liszt page Hans says: Liszt frequently made transcriptions for piano from famous compositions of other composers; one was Rossini’s Stabat Mater. However, Mr. Decker provided me with interesting and valueble extra information and thanks to him, I could order a CD  with Liszt’s piano version of Cuius Animam Gementem. You can listen to it here:
