Description

Complex piano quote from Liszt

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 AMQS on an off-white 7.75 x 10 sheet. Liszt pens a long, single bar of music made up of a flourish of 15 consecutive piano chords, writing “Preludio,” above the quote and signed underneath, “F. Liszt, 8 Juin 891.” Sheet is affixed to an identical size heavier stock sheet. In fine condition, with a few trivial ripples at the edges, and a bit of minor soiling. An intricate and frenzied bar, just the third musical quote from Liszt we have ever offered. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
