Sophia Liu's new album, featuring selected works by Chopin and Liszt, will be released on Mirare Records on October 10, 2025.
I am thrilled to share that my next album will be dedicated to two of the greatest virtuosos and visionaries of the Romantic era: Frédéric Chopin and Franz Liszt. I have loved these two composers dearly for so many years, and, for me, their works are some of the most extraordinary, miraculous and profoundly beautiful music of the piano repertoire—but what speaks to me above all is their almost indescribable power of transporting us to an otherworldly reality. From the dreamy and ethereal Liebesträum, to the microscopic nuances of the Mazurkas, and finally the grandeur and nobility of the Polonaise and so much in between, these pieces not only reflect my personal journey but carry a message that pertains to every person. Each piece featured in this album is transcendent in their own way, and I sincerely hope that you will enjoy listening to them.
