You are HERE >> Music : General Classical Composer : Franz Liszt by Betty Fry November 6, 2001 Amazon Products Lizst: Jorge Bolet Rediscovered Liszt... When I discovered Franz Liszt had been interested enough in gypsies to become their friend, and to even spend time in a gypsy encampment in his childhood home of Hungary, I immediately became very interested in him as a man as well as a musician. On one occasion when he visited the camp, he was given a pile of fur skins as a seat of honour, and from this special vantage position he watched the men eating meat and honey, while the women danced, crashing their tambourines and shouting to each other. Then the men rose to examine several horses they had been given, and were so delighted with the animals, they threw their caps into the air with joy before taking up their violins and cymbals to play in excited celebration. I could hear, even see all this happening when I played his Hungarian Rhapsody No. 9 The series of pieces he called 'Magyar Dallock', which were later published as 'Hungarian Rhapsodies' were also based on music he had heard the gypsies play. He is said to have admired their prophetic talent, and although he found their primitive ways both erotic and barbarous, the simplicity of their life also charmed him. As a boy he was influenced by the gypsy violinist Janos Bihari, and for this reason had a rich knowledge of his country's national music to draw on. But his fascination with their music related directly to his own attraction to the colourful and unconventional.

The World's Largest Literary Cafe Nantucket Navy Live Chat Classicals The Jolly Roger ... The World's Largest Literary Cafe Posted by Ross on February 22, 1999 at 23:00:41: Carl Tausig (1841-1871), Liszt's finest pupil, was a phenomenal pianist, described as "infallible" by Anton Rubinstein, and "unsurpassable, superb" by Hans von Bulow. Liszt first received him at age thirteen and immediately proclaimed, "He is one in a thousand." Apart from a few interruptions, Tausig remained Liszt's pupil from 1855 to 1859. He was a prankster, and apparently some of his tricks weren't entirely harmless. Once, he sold the as yet unpublished manuscript of "A Faust Symphony" for five thalers, without his teacher's knowledge! He was packed off to Wagner for a while, and Wagner's reaction was one of delight and horror: "My childless marriage has suddenly been blessed with a real catastrophe, and I am enjoying, in rapid succession, the quintessence of a father's cares and troubles.... Musically, however, he is enormously talented, and his furious piano playing makes me shudder." "I recently wrote to you in uninhibited terms concerning this young Tausig. Two things make me overlook all his shortcomings, and bind me to him to such a degree that I am almost inclined to trust him: they are his boundless love for you and the way he stops being naughty the moment the conversation turns to you, when he shows the most tender and profound reverence towards you...." Tausig seemed uniquely suited to a virtuoso career, yet it was not one which gave him any lasting satisfaction. He studied philosophy, mathematics, and natural science. In 1862, he went to Vienna and conducted concerts made up entirely of Wagner's works. In 1865, he founded a "School for of Advanced Piano Playing" in Berlin. On 2 July 1871, he travelled to Leipzig with Liszt, and the next day he contracted typhus. He died on the 17th, and the hands which Liszt described as "des mains de bronze ey de diamants" were laid to rest forever.

document.write(""); LISZT, FRANZ Transactions. His principal works were Historiae animalium A ngliae tres tractatus (f678); Historiae Conch yliorum (1685— 1692), and Conchyliorum Bivalvium (1696). As a conchologist he was held in high esteem, but while he recognized the similarity of fossil mollusca to living forms, he regarded them as inorganic imitations produced in the rocks. In 1683 he communicated to the Royal Society (Phil. Trans., 1684), An ingenious proposalfor a new sort of maps of countries; together with tables of sands and clays, such as are chiefly found in the north parts of England. In this essay he suggested the preparation of a soil or mineral map of the country, and thereby is justly credited with being the first to realize the importance of a geological survey. He died at Epsom on the 2nd of February 1712. LISTON, JOHN (c. 1776—1846), English comedian, was born in London. He made his public debut on the stage at Weymouth as Lord Duberley in The Heir-at-law. After several dismal failures in tragic parts, some of them in support of Mrs Siddons, he discovered accidentally that his forte was comedy, especially in the personation of old men and country boys, in which he displayed a fund of drollery and broad humour. An introduction to Charles Kemble led to his appearance at the Haymarket on the 10th of June 1805 as Sheepface in the Village Lawyer, and his association with this theatre continued with few interruptions until 1830. Paul Pry,the most famous of all his impersonations, was first presented on the 13th of September 1825, and soon became, thanks to his creative genius, a real personage. Liston remained on the stage till 1837; during his last years his mind failed, and he died on the 22nd of March 1846. He had married in 1807 Miss Tyrer (d. 1854), a singer and actress.

CRISTOFORI CF-885: MARTIN BERKOFSKY PLAYS FRANZ LISZT MARTIN BERKOFSKY-FRANZ LISZT-ASSISTANCE IN HEALTH CARE Assistance in Health Care, Inc., was started in 1983 by a concerned group of individuals who saw that cancer patients, and their families, were struggling not only to combat cancer, but to survive the economic toll the battle takes. Because of the prolonged nature of the treatment, fighting cancer takes financial resources many patients and their families simply do not have. It became clear to this founding group, as it has to the many volunteer members of A.I.H.C. and the many more individuals and businesses that have made donations, that people need help at the most basic level: with money for gas, for groceries, for the bills that pile up while the patient is unable to work. The stress induced by not having enough money for basic necessities is considerable. A.I.H.C. helps relieve some of it, in an area where even the smallest amounts can make a big difference. In the fall of the year 2000, the pianist Martin Berkofsky was treated at Cancer Treatment Centers of America. He returned from his stay with a suitcase stuffed with rubber noses, monstrous green plastic gloves and other relics of his humor class and a renewed outlook on life; a heightened sensitivity to others and the conviction that caring works, and works at every level. He also returned with a commitment to help other cancer patients. Helping A.I.H.C. is a natural. The founder of the Cristofori Foundation, he too seeks to relieve persons of financial distress. With solo performances, ensemble concerts, and the sales of compact discs such as this, he has helped the homeless, a neighbor pay for a heart transplant, Albanian refugees at the height of their crisis, a blind girl in Macedonia trying to educate herself.

Door velen wordt hij beschouwd als de grootste pianist aller tijden. Op negenjarige leeftijd verliet Liszt zijn geboorteland om in Wenen muziekles te volgen bij Salieri, de leraar en concurrent van Mozart. In 1823 ging hij naar Parijs, want deze stad was de kunststad van die tijd, zowel voor beeldende kunstenaars als voor muzikanten en componisten. In 1836 won de jonge Liszt een pianoconcours en dit betekende de start van een lange en succesvolle carrière. Lange tijd was zijn roem als pianist groter dan zijn bekendheid als componist. Franz Liszt toerde door Europa tot 1847. Vaak stonden lange rijen muziekliefhebbers voor de ingang van de concertzaal als Liszt optrad. Een specialiteit van hem was het herschrijven van melodieën van andere componisten. Franz Liszt kon bijvoorbeeld extreem moeilijke improvisaties geven op een populaire operamelodie.

Franz Liszt Liszt was the son of a steward in the service of the Esterházy family, patrons of Haydn. He was born in 1811 at Raiding in Hungary and moved as a child to Vienna, where he took piano lessons from Czerny and composition lessons from Salieri. Two years later, in 1823, he moved with his family to Paris, from where he toured widely as a pianist. Influenced by the phenomenal violinist Paganini, he turned his attention to the development of a similar technique as a pianist and in 1835 left Paris with his mistress, the Comtesse d'Agoult, with whom he traveled widely during the following years, as his reputation as a pianist of astonishing powers grew. In 1844 he separated from his mistress, the mother of his three children, and in 1848 settled in Weimar as Director of Music Extraordinary, accompanied by Princess Sayn-Wittgenstein and turning his attention now to composition and in particular to the creation of a new form, the symphonic poem. In 1861 Liszt moved to Rome, where he found expression for his long-held religious leanings. From 1869 he returned regularly to Weimar, where he had many pupils, and later he accepted similar obligations in Budapest, where he was regarded as a national hero.

FRANZ LISZT Man of the Cloth, Man of the World Composer, Teacher, and Conductor Greatest Pianist of the 19th century Composer of Piano Transcriptions "The music of Franz Liszt has been consistently misunderstood for generations. Much of the skepticism no doubt stems from the apparent dichotomies of the composer’s multifaceted personality: saint and sinner, man of the cloth and man of the world, sensitive poet and showy exhibitionist, original musical thinker and purveyor of occasional bombast. Only in the past 20 or 25 years has there been an objective assessment of Liszt’s best work, revealing his important pivotal position in the history of 19th-century music as well as the substantial influence on later generations" (Ratliff, Program Notes on Liszt). Ludwig van Beethoven In 1830, Liszt met Romantic composer Hector Berlioz (1803-1869), as well as literary figures Victor Hugo and Heinrich Heine. During this year, he also became acquainted with (1810-1849) and Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847), later bringing Chopin together with his long-time companion, George Sand. Liszt was first introduced to the art of virtuosity when hearing acclaimed violinist Niccolò Paganini (1782-1840) perform in 1831. After this event, Liszt had even further determination and was more diligent than before: "I practice four to five hours of trills, sixths, octaves, tremolos , repeated notes, cadenzas and the like" (qtd. in Plantinga 181). From that point of inspiration, Liszt continued playing and studying feverishly until the end of his performance career in 1848. The impact of Paganini’s presence, along with
