"Liszt very philosophical composer, and busy always with three questions: love, life and death."

Quote taken the new Macmillan book

Liszt is my favourite composure. I found it funny the way he was a passionate party animal!

I was wondering, does he really have big hands or was it just because olden days pianos had small, close together keys? I watched a lady...Anna something play on his piano and the keys looked small. Maybe his hands were big...I'm not sure.

Liebestraum No. 3 (Pianist Daniel Barenboim)

Does anyone else know his Malédiction for Piano and String Orchestra? It's fantastic. Why isn't this piece performed more often? I'd rather hear this than yet another performance of his two piano concerti or even the Totentanz (which are all quite wonderful, don't misunderstand me, but still ...).

He was such an intense individual - Lisztomania would have been something to behold!
