Composed by Franz Liszt. Arranged by ForteTwo. Romantic Period. Score and parts. 18 pages. ForteTwo Music #4984329. Published by ForteTwo Music (A0.942808).

A piece perhaps suitable for Halloween, Unstern! (‘Unlucky’, or ‘Evil Star’) contains some brutally unfriendly harmony, and an unwary listener would be apt to place some passages among the works of the twentieth century's most important innovators. Open tritones, whole-tone harmony, augmented triads over a pedal and a particularly violent dissonance before the organ-like closing section, create a continuous tension. Small wonder that Liszt spoke of his musical language not being understood in his lifetime! This version, which has been adapted for Brass Quintet, especially captures the continuous tension, and brings an even more organ-like sound to the closing section of the piece.
