Asher Fisch is not just a wonderful conductor. He is a gifted pianist as these Liszt transcriptions of Wagner selections from The Mastersingers, The Flying Dutchman, Tannhäuser, Lohengrin and Tristan and Isolde reveal. 

There’s a wide range of emotion here, and Fisch’s performances give great insight into the core of these gems.
