Hungarian Romantic era composer and pianist (1811–1886) whose prowess at the keyboard earned him a cachet as perhaps the greatest virtuoso in the history of the instrument. Rare ALS in German, signed “F. Liszt,” one page, 4.25 x 7, April 24, 1881. In part (translated): “Hearty handshake for your beautiful poetic ‘Liszt Welcome’ in Berlin…” Recipient is unknown but it almost certainly was written to someone who had performed that day, with Liszt in attendance, at the Liszt Festival Concert in Berlin. Matted and framed with an original carte-de-visite bust portrait to an overall size of 13.5 x 13. Punch hole to blank portion of left edge, some scattered mild toning and a few small creases, otherwise fine condition.
Held on the same day as this note of thanks was composed, Liszt viewed the concert as a ‘joyous incentive’ to his life’s work. He had arrived a day earlier to assist at the performance of Christus, his oratorio on the life of Jesus Christ.
