Années de pèlerinage (French for Years of Pilgrimage) (. 60, . 61, . 63) is a set of three suites for solo piano by Franz Liszt.

And classic this performance most definitely is. I have listened only to two other complete recordings of this magisterial cycle - and there seem to be little more on the market - and I can safely say that Aldo Ciccolini is totally superior to both Leslie Howard on Hyperion (digital) and Lazar Berman on DG (late analogue), to the latter embarrassingly so.
