Jakob Fichert: A 21st Century View on Liszt. Jakob Fichert, pianist, pedagogue, examiner and lecturer will premier his eclectic works 'A 21st century view on Liszt' in one of Leeds most intimate venues, Besbrode Pianos Steinway showroom on Sunday, 14th April 2019, 14:30pm.
Revered for his revolutionary approach to piano technique, Liszt was equally innovative as a composer, inspiring the likes of Ravel, Bartok and Ligeti. Liszt's music keeps influencing the composers of today, and the popularity of his piano works continues to soar. This event therefore aims to explore the impact Liszt's writing has on music written in the 21st century.
