Franz Liszt lived as he composed -- on the grand scale -- the quintessential, flamboyant romantic. Born in Hungary in 1811 to poor farm parents, he received his onyl education from his father who was a well-known amateur musician. Although a virtuous at age 13, he was tormented by his lack of formal education. Denied entrance to the Paris Conservatory because of his young age, he surrounded himself with the most celebrated men of letters and music of his time. This impressive volume encompasses Franz Liszt's entire legendary career -- the virtuous tours, the composition of piano works and transcriptions which revolutionized the instrument, the period as conductor at Weimar, and the creation of brilliant new forms of orchestral and choral music. -- From publisher's description
