This Companion provides an up-to-date view of the music of Franz
Liszt, its contemporary context and performance practice, written
by some of the leading specialists in the field of
nineteenth-century music studies. Although a core of Liszt's piano
music has always maintained a firm hold on the repertoire, his
output was so vast, influential and multi-faceted that scholarship
too has taken some time to assimilate his achievement. This book
offers students and music lovers some of the latest views in an
accessible form. Katharine Ellis, Alexander Rehding and James
Deaville present the biographical and intellectual aspects of
Liszt's legacy, Kenneth Hamilton, James Baker and Anna Celenza give
a detailed account of Liszt's piano music - including approaches to
performance - Monika Hennemann discusses Liszt's Lieder, and Reeves
Shulstad and Dolores Pesce survey his orchestral and choral music.
