 We are now going to listen to a series of pieces by Franz Liszt called Mephisto Waltzes, Mephisto being the embodiment of the devil and the story of Faust, the tempter of Faust in that legend, told by several authors, including Goethe and Lenau. Here is the first of the Mephisto Waltzes, and it's by far the best known. It's also called Dance in the Village Inn by Liszt. We're going to hear it in its orchestral version with the Rotterdam Philharmonic, led by James Conlon.
