Franz Liszt: A Study of His Life and Piano MusicWalz, Larry Gene 08 1900 (has links)
This study of Franz Liszt presents the Hungarian master as a figure of conflicting forces, a sort of conflicting forces, a sort of Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde of music. In other words, Liszt was a dual personality. In this study of Liszt's major piano works, it will become evident that several factors were vital in the ultimate realization of these works.

Liszt's technical studies: a methodology for the attainment of pianistic virtuosityGoodchild, Neil John, English, Media, & Performing Arts, Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences, UNSW January 2007 (has links)
In 1970, the Hungarian publishing firm Editio Musica Budapest began a long term project, ending in 2005, that endeavored to compile and publish all Liszt's works in a complete edition titled, The New Liszt Edition (NLE). Through the efforts of this firm, Liszt's Technical Studies were published in the way that he had originally intended for the first time in 1983. Yet, although the eminent Liszt-scholar Michael Saffle has stated that 'Pedagogy is one of the most thoroughly-mined veins of Liszt material ever uncovered', academic discussions on Liszt's Technical Studies (Walker, 2005), his definitive pedagogical work for piano, are scarce. What it was that Liszt set out as being fundamental to the acquisition of pianistic virtuosity in the Technical Studies and the nature of its trajectory is generally unknown. Through an examination of the didactic instruction Liszt supplied in the Preface of the autograph manuscript to the Technical Studies and specific technical commentaries written by Mme. Auguste Boissier in her Liszt pedagogue, I will argue that the Technical Studies are built on six artistic and mechanical principles, exemplified by Liszt in the exercises, written to help the pianist acquire technical virtuosity. The methodical divisions of the work into sections that deal with specific mechanical objectives are illustrated with musical examples and their technical trajectory defined.

Beethoven through Liszt: myth, performance, editionWu, Wan-Hsuan, 1977- 29 August 2008 (has links)
The relationship between Franz Liszt and Ludwig van Beethoven has always held a special position in the biographical tradition of Liszt. Liszt claimed that he received a consecration kiss (the Weihekuss) from Beethoven when he was eleven. However, the story probably was fabricated: in other words, the personal relationship between Liszt and Beethoven was never realized and never existed. Even though Beethoven and Liszt probably have never met, the Weihekuss still served as, in Liszt's words, "the palladium of my whole career as an artist." Liszt constructed a rather complicated relationship with Beethoven around this myth. In this study, I shall examine how the Weihekuss influenced both Liszt's life and his professional development as a performer and editor. In chapter one, I will analyze Liszt's psychological state through the anecdote and further examine the impact that Beethoven had inserted on both Liszt's life and career. On becoming a concert pianist, Liszt was the first person who performed Beethoven's piano sonatas in public and eventually elevated the genre of the sonata into the concert repertory. In chapter two, through eyewitness testimonies, Liszt will be viewed in a broader cultural and historical perspective. Meanwhile, Liszt's relationship with his audiences and his marketing strategies will also be included in this discussion. Liszt's "authority" on Beethoven led him to complete an edition of Beethoven's thirty-two piano sonatas in 1857. By examining Liszt's edition, particularly those sonatas that he performed, one can get a sense of how Liszt himself may have interpreted the music. According to Liszt himself, he performed ten Beethoven piano sonatas in public. These ten sonatas will be the primary focus in chapter three. Liszt both added and omitted articulation and pedal markings, creating different emphases and lines from those present in Beethoven's original manuscripts. The edition, in a sense, is Liszt's final tribute to Beethoven, but also reveals his constant disappointment in never having met the composer. To edit the sonatas was, for Liszt, a way to communicate with Beethoven spiritually, if not personally.

New bottles for new wine : Liszt's compositional procedures (harmony, form, and programme in selected piano works from the Weimar period, 1848-1861)Shin, Minna Re, 1969- January 2000 (has links)
The dissertation examines Liszt's experimentation with harmonic, formal, and programmatic procedures in the piano works of his Weimar period (1848--1861). Liszt's music has often been criticized as "new wine in old bottles." His radical development of keyboard technique and harmonic vocabulary appears contained within, and constrained by, traditional forms. Here, however, it is argued that Liszt's "form" and "content" go hand in hand. A change in one compositional element (e.g., harmonic vocabulary) leads to changes in other elements (e.g., formal and tonal design), so that a kind of compositional "chain reaction" occurs. / Chapter one (introduction) establishes the plan of study and describes three organizational strategies ("conflict," "block," and "object") found in the selected works. Chapter two investigates the Etudes d'execution transcendante and focuses on harmonic innovations at the thematic level. In comparing different versions of the Etudes, the chapter shows how the composer's virtuoso keyboard idiom interacts with harmonic content and how surface harmonic procedures function as structural determinants. Chapter three concentrates on the smaller sets of "poetic" piano works. These include the Consolations , the Liebestraume, and the two Ballades as well as selections from the larger cyclical collections, the Annees de pelerinage and the Harmonies poetiques et religieuses. The analytical focus is on Liszt's manipulations of phrase- and section-level formal functions. The works display strophic and through-compositional tendencies that mirror developments in nineteenth-century lieder, and formal ambiguities that arise from the hybridization of traditional instrumental formal types. / Chapter four focuses exclusively on the B-minor Sonata. The composition, perhaps Liszt's most successful and complex work, engages us in a synthetic approach to harmony, form, and programme. The motivic and formal design of the Sonata may be accounted for in programmatic terms. Compositional similarities between the Sonata and the Faust Symphony suggest their shared programmatic subtext. The extensively developed "love interest" in Goethe's Faust invokes issues of gender and sexuality. The programme-related construction of gender as well as the arousal and channeling of desire can be connected with the Sonata's formal and tonal organization. Emphasizing the use of five motives and their various transformations, it is shown how Liszt portrays, through musical means, the three principal characters---Faust, Marguerite, and Mephistopheles---and how the work embodies a variety of narratological and interpretive paradigmsheroic, feminist, and psychological.

Années de pèlerinage de Franz Liszt, cycle musical inspiré de la nature, de la littérature, de la peinture ou sculpture, de textes religieux et de thèmes folkloriques : qu'est-ce qui a influencé Liszt dans la création du cycle « Années de Pèlerinage » ?Châteauvert, Alain 25 March 2024 (has links)
Titre de l'écran-titre (visionné le 8 août 2023) / Pour de nombreux musiciens, la musique composée par Franz Liszt est absolument fascinante. Pour réaliser une bonne interprétation des œuvres de Liszt, il faut, une excellente technique et des connaissances sur sa vie. Il existe d'innombrables textes écrits sur ce compositeur qui a vécu tout près de 75 ans. D'ailleurs, Liszt a eu une grande influence auprès des musiciens du 19ᵉ siècle. Il y a très peu de thèses ou d'écrits qui vont se concentrer sur tout le cycle Années de Pèlerinage. La composition de ce répertoire de 23 pièces s'échelonne sur tout près de 40 ans de la vie de cet illustre musicien. Cette recherche s'attarde sur les éléments qui ont influencé le compositeur pour écrire chacune des pièces de ce répertoire. Après une brève biographie, le premier chapitre présente ce que Liszt a mis en musique lors de son périple en Suisse. Le second chapitre parle de l'influence des textes religieux. Le troisième chapitre rend compte des influences des tableaux et des sculptures vus surtout en Italie. Le quatrième chapitre, le plus volumineux, démontre l'importance des textes poétiques et philosophiques sur les compositions du pianiste. Le dernier chapitre parle des influences des thèmes folkloriques. En conclusion, cette thèse peut servir de guide pour les interprètes qui désirent jouer ce répertoire. / An enlightened performance of the music of Franz Liszt requires knowledge about his life and his works. There are countless texts written about this composer who lived almost 75 years. There are very few will talk about the entire Années de Pèlerinage cycle. This corpus of 23 pieces spans almost 40 years of the life of this illustrious pianist. This research focuses on the elements that influenced the composer to write each of the pieces in this collection. After a brief biography, the first chapter presents what Liszt set to music during his trip in Switzerland. He said he wanted to express his strongest feelings through music. The second chapter deals with the influence of religious texts. The third chapter gives an account of the influences of the paintings and sculptures seen especially in Italy. The fourth chapter, the most voluminous, displays the importance of the poetic and philosophical texts on the compositions of the pianist. The last chapter talks about the influences of folk themes. Finally, and as a conclusion, the reader will find a guide for the performers who wish to play this repertoire.
