有人形容，李斯特是一位「要求讓情感說話、流淚、歌唱與嘆息，以自己的感覺帶給音樂生命；他的音樂熱情洋溢，表現出音樂最光輝燦爛的一面；他在毫無生氣的音樂中注入活力，注入靈感與想像力，讓音樂重獲朝氣與優美迷人的律動。他的音樂結構猶如在萬里穹蒼展翅飛翔；他的身上一定有上千把精良的武器可供使用；他讓人憶起芬芳的氣息，並把這氣息帶入生命」的鋼琴大師，而這一段話，也是形容阿格麗希風格的最佳註腳。阿格麗希的音樂如水銀般流動靈巧又難以捉摸，好不容易捉住又會立刻溜走；音樂如同刀劍般的銳利，八度音如同火焰般閃耀，就是這種能緊緊抓住人心的快速多變風格，讓她屹立在音樂會舞台與唱片市場長達五十年而不動搖。
這套專輯收錄許多阿格麗希最受樂迷鍾愛的曲子，例如：蕭邦《詼諧曲》與《前奏曲》、普羅高菲夫《觸技曲》、拉威爾與普羅高菲夫的鋼琴協奏曲選、拉威爾《加斯巴之夜》裡的〈水妖〉等作品。最後則是讓人驚喜兩軌珍貴錄音：1960年一月與九月，不滿二十歲的阿格麗希在德國科隆彈奏莫札特第十七號鋼琴奏鳴曲第二樂章，以及貝多芬第七號鋼琴奏鳴曲第四樂章實況錄音。這兩軌錄音的母帶收藏於西德廣播電台，品質相當好，過去從未發行。
