Liszt songs

30 videos • 815 views • by Éva Marton International Singing Competition "Liszt songs are being sung better and better. Why? Because the singers understand the point better. Now, at this moment, we are here in one of the rooms of the Liszt Museum, where Liszt himself lived. Well, if one has not been touched, one is not touched by Liszt's sublime idea that in such a simple song, for example, he can combine heavenly and earthly love and display it in his music, with a special sound, as this duality has always lived in him for a lifetime, those who are not affected by this cannot be called artists. The other thing is that they could sing in the school that Liszt founded more than a hundred years ago. He’s one of my favorite composers, and I’m happy every time someone sings a song I may have not heard before in the competition." (Éva Marton)
