Arguably the greatest of all piano virtuosi, Liszt was one of the
few composers of his day who had the technique to perform his own
compositions. A child prodigy pianist who could read music before
he could recite the alphabet, Franz Liszt is one of the most
outrageously gifted and most controversial figures in classical
music. Unconventional in both his approach to composing and his
personal life, he had a reputation for courting hostility and
riding rough-shod over other people's feelings, particularly those
of his musical peers.
This lavishly illustrated book chronicles Liszt's life and times
with the help of many rare photographs and contemporary prints.
With numerous quotations from the people who knew him best,
extracts from personal letters and diaries, this remarkable book
gives an intimate picture of the composer's private life, and also
investigates the complex religious and emotional forces which
inspired his music.
Includes a CD featuring a selection of recordings by the composer.
