Excerpt from Franz Liszt Once Liszt helped Wagner, but who now will help Liszt? This was said in 1874, when Liszt was well advanced in years, when his fame as piano virtuoso and his name as composer were wellnigh eclipsed by the growing glory of Wagner - truly a glory he had helped to create. In youth, an Orpheus pursued by the musical Maenads of Europe, in Old age Liszt was a Merlin dealing in white magic, still followed by the Viviens. The story of his career is as romantic as any by Bal zac. And the end Of it all after a half century and more Of fire and flowers, Of proud, brilliant music-making was tragical. A gentle King Lear (without the consolation Of a Cordelia), fol lowing with resignation the conquering chariot Of a man, his daughter's husband, who owed him so much, and, despite criticism, bravely acknowl edged his debt, thus faithful to the end (he once declared that by Wagner he would stand or fall), Franz Liszt died a quarter of a century ago at.

Book Description
Excerpt from Franz Liszt and His Music The celebrity enjoyed by Liszt as an executant from the time when, a mere child, he became the wonder of the musical world, curiously enough seems to have proved rather a hindrance than otherwise to his fame as a creative artist. He had long been recognised as facile princeps among pianists, but his attempts to shine in the higher spheres of musical composition were received from the first with suspicion on the part both of musicians and public, and the Opposition against which he had to struggle lasted to the end of his days. Far from embittering him, however, it seemed to make him more and more anxious to devote all his energies, all his talents, to the furtherance of music in its varied manifestations.
