Megaherz - Das Leben

But underestimate the "years of wanderings" Liszt is also not worth it. “It was during this period,” notes I. I. Milshtein, “the basic principles of his work were formed ... It was during this period that his“ national training ”began, which led to the creation of the immortal“ patriotic anthology ”-“ Hungarian national melodies ”and“ Hungarian rhapsody. " It was during this period that a revolution in piano art was made, which opened the world to a new era of pianism. Years of wanderings gave Liszt many new, vivid and powerful impressions; they brought him a huge supply of creative thoughts and images ... This is the most important stage in Liszt’s creative life, largely predetermining the further development of his art. ”
