Liszt Reflections A Zeneakadémia saját szervezésű programja

It has long been recognized that the impact of Ferenc Liszt is global. He left indelible impressions not only on his own generation but also on the composers and pianists of succeeding generations. However, few in Hungary know with what vigour the Liszt cult blooms in South Korea. Over the past 15 years the Korean Liszt Society (founded: 1999) has organized countless concerts to allow Far East audiences to appreciate the art of Liszt, and it has arranged the highly prestigious Korean Liszt Competition three times since 2009. Of course, the impact of Liszt is important not only on pianists but composers, too, who still find inspiration in his works, as this concert proves; South Korean pianists perform works by compatriot composers who have been influenced by the music of the Hungarian. As well as contemporary pieces there will also be original Liszt compositions, Mazeppa and Les préludes symphonic poems, and Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 for two pianos.
