About three years after the publication of the second volume of his “Annes de Plerinage” (Italy), Liszt added a supplement to this collection: the triptych “Venezia e Napoli”. For this he reworked two of four pieces which he had already composed in 1840 after a journey to Italy, grouping them around an adaptation of the gondola song “Nessun maggior dolore” from Rossini’s “Otello”. It is diffi cult to imagine the piano repertoire without the furious “Tarantella” in particular, which brings this supplement to a close after the two rather lyrical pieces “Gondoliera” and “Canzone”. With the publication of this supplement all works pertaining to the “Annes de Plerinage” are now available in Henle Urtext for the Liszt year.
