Reviews for Liszt's Final Decade (Eastman Studies in Music)
The product of painstaking scholarship. It brings to light unpublished letters and treats this period of Liszt's life in great detail, revealing new information about his attitudes toward composition and his general world-view...Most importantly, it realigns our understanding of Liszt's late output, moving the focus away from a handful of famous pieces.
