商品簡介
In this memoir, a reprint from 1961, Russian pianist, composer, and conductor Friedheim, who was a friend, pupil, and secretary of Franz Liszt, examines Liszt's life and work while integrating his own story and career. The volume combines two manuscripts that were not previously published that illustrate the creativity of Liszt as well as the context in which he lived. Appendices contain reviews of Friedheim's concerts, discussion of Liszt as a writer, and examination of Arthur Schopenhauer's philosophy of music and Richard Wagner's views.
