Franz Liszt’s entire oeuvre is marked by a progression beyond genre boundaries, free movement between the different branches of the arts and the possibility of linking the expression of their media. He made pano arrangements of songs and operas, entire symphonies and symphonic poems. In his works he found inspiration from almost everything, from the greatest works of world literature to Italian Renaissance painting and sometimes created characteristic musical images of works of the related arts in a strikingly original way. Tamás Vásáry and Henriett Tunyogi – faithful to the spirit of Liszt – guide us to a discovery of the dance in Liszt’s many-layered world.
