The man was gorgeous in his younger years and looked really good in older years too. They say he was a looker drawing great crowds not only for his genius in music 🎼 but also because of his exceptional beauty 🖤👼🏼🖤
@@babygirl4169 thats fake, the actor who plays liszt looks nothing like him. The first video was shot in 1888 and it was 2 seconds long, that video was way longer than 2 seconds long.
There are rumors of an audio recording of Liszt playing that were recorded on an Edison cylindrical phonograph. But these cylinders have never turned up, if they exist. There is an undisputed phonograph recording of Brahms playing his first Hungarian dance that was recorded in the late 1880s. So it could be possible that there is a recording of Liszt.
You've done a very good job with this video. Quite a few very interesting photos are on display at his house in Weimar. If you've never been there, I highly recommend it. It seems Liszt was a nice person who never charged his students for lessons.
These are really wonderful. It's amazing to see a great 19th century composer actually photographed. Personally I think there is no denying as to Liszt's "Hungarian" nationality - despite what people say of him as not being Bartok (an "ethnomusicologist" who researched on "True" Hungarian music) or being born in "Austria" you can really hear the "Hungarian" in his pieces in my opinion. I think Hungarians have a way of playing the piano, a powerful and kind of aggressive way to play it - I notice Nyireghazi, Cziffra, CziffraTheThird (look him up), Peter Bence (also look him up), Zoltan Kocsis, Jeno Jando, Bela Bartok, etc. all have this way of playing...Liszt must have been the same! I mean, look at his music. I'm beginning to think a lot of his "piano pounding" was not just because he was a "showman" or something...it must have been something inherent in his cultural aesthetic. I'm no "musicologist" but if others see sense in this, I would like to know.
A true Superhero. The real wizard/Wildman of the piano.His kind we shall never see again. Wish his music was recorded back then, they didn't have the technology unfortunately. Our loss. His memory and his music will live on for centuries to come. Strange his daughter Cosima didn't inherit his zest of music.Francis was a man that commanded the piano, the piano didn't command him.
Behind Chopin, Listz was thee towering genius of Romantic music. There was nothing this guy couldn't do on the piano. And such a work ethic as well. The Etudes and Concert etudes r my fav's.
@@segmentsAndCurves quality over quantity. Yes liszt composed more for the piano but chopin has composed the greatest pieces ever written for the instrument hands down. He never wrote a bad piece. Each one is better than the last
Do we know how tall he was? He must have had large and strong hands, but in some of the photo's he appears to be of smaller stature. When photographed with others, at least in the ones presented, he is usually seated-- perhaps to de-emphasize a smaller frame? I understand he was a wonderful and generous teacher. I would like to have known him. NB: I just checked and he was one of the taller composers of his day. He was 6 feet tall or a little taller. Maybe he remained seated when with others so as not to dwarf them.

Andrei Cristian Anghel, wonderful video and channel. Thanks for sharing so much content of Liszt. I would like to ask you what makes you like Liszt so much?
Most of these can be found with some intensive Google searches (some sites, who have a bit of a monopoly on the Google images, watermark these and try and get you to buy them- they shouldn't, there's no way these aren't in the public domain with Liszt's last possible picture being taken 133 years ago).
Pretty much. I think it was because the subject had to hold the pose for much longer than with modern cameras. So it was easier not to have hold a smile as well as stand still for however long it took.
19th century photographs takes seconds to get your photo. You must not move so that the photo will not come out blurry. That is why its rare to see someone in a photo who smiles in the 19th century
@@melonica90 Yeah I doubt myself too...😅 Just finding a photo of Busoni in 1890, and it's totally different from here. (And quite handsome too !) upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4c/Ferruccio_Busoni_1890.png

There are now 2 or 3 known daguerreotypes of Chopin. There is a very simple reason of the difference of number of photos: Chopin died in 1849 at the very beginning of the commercial but very expensive daguerreotype, Liszt died 37 years later when photography, the successor of daguerreotype, was rather common and far cheaper.
Q.M Why not? He is considered one of the best pianists in history (if not the best) and with the greatest and most advanced technique of his time, and the best known composers
I think most pianists kinda know Liszt, but few actually put him in their top spot as their favourite composer, and so many of his works aren't well-known.
Q.M He is my favourite composer and he has unduly received a fair amount of hate in the past (and still does from some, today). Thankfully, most of that has been corrected, especially with Walker's biography which revealed what a lovable, human person he was. But there has never been a composer whose works fascinated me as much (I am biased towards piano composers though, as I am a pianist) and he has been a huge source of inspiration for myself (his Transcendentals made me take the piano and practice much more seriously). Also, I might be suffering from Lisztomania. ;)

Glad you posted these timeless treasures of Liszt 😄
Thankyou and thankyou for matching these images with such a great tone poem.
Great slide show, thanks. Liszt was a towering figure of the nineteenth century, and not just in music.
2:00 looks like Liszt is having a conversation with his younger self haha ( the man next to him)
In fact many people thought he was a son of Liszt, but Liszt never met his mother in person.
Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful photos.
You are doing an amazing job and helping us all discover him more...
Liszt also used this as a little piece called cradle song which can also be found scored on yt :) happy new year to all!
Berceuse?
That little gem :')
a legend says that the first time he saw the sheet of the etude op10 no1 of his close friend Chopin, he sight read it at tempo ... bruh
Victor Simon His teacher, Czerny, made him sight-read *everything* put in front of him.
Walter Tomaszewski what a crack
Crazy huh
And took his young pupil Liszt to play for Beethoven, who kissed his forehead after his playing, sadly I don't remember the full anecdote
I dont believe that not for 1 second.
Thanks for putting these photo-music-videos of Liszt together. They will become my new screensavers on my desktop.
Thanks for the compilation! I’ve seen most of these before, but a couple are new to me..like the one at :40. So striking.

at least 6'0", some say 6'1"..and phenomenal reach on the keyboard, like Rach.
I seriously doubt he was 6 feet. His legs look too short when he's standing. Besides, people back then were a lot shorter.
