Transcriptions from the Romantic period are Marin, Risto-Mattii's specialty, and this is how this record begins, with Liszt's view of Johann Sebastian Bach's Fantasy and Fugue for organ in G minor. Liszt converts the organ texture written by Bach on 19th-century romantic concert piano; Liszt did not seek Baroque authenticity, nor does Marin. The end result is good, the pianist is clearly in his own area.
