AlbakiReads Editorial
A firsthand record of Liszt’s late teaching years
Drawn from the diaries of August Göllerich, Liszt’s secretary and student, this volume documents piano master classes held between 1884 and 1886. The notes preserve the mature musician’s comments on interpretation, including guidance on his own music, Chopin, and other composers. They also place technical and musical instruction alongside observations of Liszt’s social preferences and his relationships with students. As a historical source, the book offers a close view of how a major nineteenth-century pianist communicated ideas about performance in the classroom.
