Liszt-Albumblätter

Liszt’s Album leaves

Recently, five album sheets have been found that have not been mentioned in Liszt research so far. On three of them, signatures of Liszt’s students have been collected, such as Eugen d’Albert, José Vianna da Motta, Richard Burmeister, Lina Grosscurth, Emma Koch, Felix Weingartner, Conrad Ansorge, Frédéric Lamond, Emil von Sauer, Max van de Sandt, Alexander Siloti and Martha Remmert. These sheets date from around 1930. Two album sheets were made by Liszt himself. One is from a concert in 1841, showing four measures for piano in F major in 4/4 time and the signature «Osnabrück, Nov. 12, 1841, F. Liszt». A comparable sheet is in the estate of the composer Fanny Hünerwadel with a Liszt signature from 1853.
