He was born in Doborján, Sopron County, Hungary. His father, Ádám Liszt, clerk to Duke Esterházy, recognized his son's exceptional musical talent early on and seized every opportunity to develop it. At the age of nine, Liszt was already playing the piano in public in Sopron and Bratislava, and soon, with the support of art patrons, he was able to continue his studies in Vienna as a student of Czerny and Salieri. He presented himself in Vienna on December 1, 1822
In 1920/1921, a strip of Hungarian territory was transferred to Austria and Doborján was renamed to Raiding, in the district of Oberpullendorf. Around that period, the strip of transferred land became known as Burgenland.
Liszt became renowned throughout Europe for his great skill as a performer during the 1800s. He is said to have been the most technically advanced and perhaps greatest pianist of all time. He was also an important and influential composer, a notable piano teacher, a conductor who contributed significantly to the modern development of the art, and a benefactor to other composers and performers, notably Richard Wagner and Hector Berlioz.
As a composer, Liszt was one of the most prominent representatives of the "Neudeutsche Schule" ("New German School"). He left behind a huge and diverse body of work, in which he influenced his forward-looking contemporaries and anticipated some twentieth-century ideas and trends. Some of his most notable contributions were the invention of the symphonic poem, developing the concept of thematic transformation as part of his experiments in musical form and making radical departures in harmony.

Laplante has done musicological studies about Liszt and how he himself played his music and I disregard all even the most famous pianists including Yuja Wang when I compare their Liszt to Laplante, a very unassuming man who rarely appears in public, but his Liszt is absolutely Divine.
It shows once again that genius is most of the time hidden to the public and is not promoted by the big recording companies, for compliance (!) is the first rule they are asking for. A pianist who plays only one composer? That's already a sin. But Laplante is true to himself and Liszt and I am eternally thankful for it for this music is so beautiful but just as with Rachmaninov if you are not a professional pianist, better not even touching it for you will never master it, for the technical difficulties are enormous.
Behold, at least once Laplante's genius was recognized in a short film done with the famous RED movie camera, but the not at all merited reward went to Chilean pianist Claudio Arrau for a world famous film in which he played the role of Franz Liszt, and why?
Claudio Arrau León (1903-1991) was from an old prominent noble Chilean family. Wikipedia reveals that through his great-grandmother, María del Carmen Daroch del Solar, Arrau was a descendant of the Campbells of Glenorchy, a Scottish noble family. He had the privilege to study in Germany at the age of 8 through a 10-year-long grant from the Chilean government, having been a child prodigy since age 4 when he was already studying Beethoven's sonatas. In Germany, he studied with Martin Krause, who had studied under Franz Liszt, hence the direct lineage.
I have studied all of Arrau's work and love his Beethoven Violin Sonatas with Arthur Grumiaux but his Liszt is academic and slow compared to Laplante, and lacks the real vibrant sparkle of this music.
I wrote this not for expressing any bias for I consider both Laplante and Arrau as musical geniuses, but I do not agree with the fact that a genial musician like Laplante is almost unknown in this crazy and judgmental society—that most of the time is wrong in its judgments, and even cruelly wrong!

In my last year of music history in high school, my teacher played this as an example of lizst's pieces. It was damn impressive

Nice high school teacher. I wished my music teachers were as educated and amazing as that
@SevenUpHub
Holy shit that's insane
@windlessdoot7877
I’m so freaking terrified because my piano teacher just assigned me to learn this for my senior year of high school over this summer

@Unbornify Mine to!
@2Hot2
Can't believe I've never heard of this pianist before. Perfect rubato, legato with minimal pedal, every note distinct... He's earned his place at the top of my liszt.
@dwacheopus
Listen to Sultanov
@2Hot2
@@dwacheopus Thanks for the tip, Mr. Sultanov! (just kidding). Have you heard Jorge Bolet's version? I especially love the part where Faust is stumbling along drunk.
@dwacheopus
@@2Hot2 Nope, going to listen to it now! Thank you!
