ABOUT

Blending pianistic virtuosity with theatrical monologue, the show explores the genesis of Liszt's three masterworks. A unique multidisciplinary performance offering a fascinating immersion into the tormented mind of Franz Liszt.

On stage, the actor portrays Liszt at the different stages of his life - from the prodigy haunted by the Faustinian myth to the devout Abbey to the Romantic Icon.

Drawing from his personal correspondence, the narrative unveils the tensions between the sacred and the profane that defined Lisztian existence.
