Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
During his early years, Franz Liszt worked as a traveling piano virtuoso, his adventures highlighted by his entre into the literary world as a correspondent for the most popular French journals of his time. In this second volume of Janita HallSwadleys The Collected Writings of Franz Liszt, Liszts work as a music essayist and journalist is on full display. In his essays, readers will see the influence of the revolutionary theories of HuguesFelicit Robert de Lamennais, Victor Hugo, and FranoisRen de Chateaubriand as Liszt boldly calls for social reforms on behalf of musicians and musical institutions, from demands for a repertoire of church music of divine praise to the timely publication of inexpensive music editions. In addition to Liszts scandalous review of Sigismond Thalberg and the fiery exchange that ensued, the essays include his testimonies to living composers Giacomo Meyerbeer and Robert Schumann and the recently deceased Niccol Paganini.Alongside the essay, this new translation of Liszts letters opens a window onto the composers immersion in the Italian countryside, where he paints a portrait of a rich musical landscape. Liszt regales his correspondents with amusing anecdotes at Sands Italian country estate in Nohant, describes the beautiful landscape and artistic treasures of Italy from his residence on Lake Como, defends himself from Heinrich Heines accusations of his illseated character, discusses the religious aesthetic of Raphaels painting, and offers his thoughts on the interconnectedness of all the arts. Including two complete facsimile reproductions of the existing manuscripts for De la situation des artistes and Sur Paganini propos de sa mort, Essays and Letters of a Traveling Bachelor of Music is a mustread for student and scholars of 19thcentury classical music.
