As a student, Liebrecht Vanbeckevoort won several piano prizes and was a laureate of the International Steinway Competition. He has performed internationally and can often be heard on radio and television both home and abroad.Franz Liszt (1811-1886) created an oeuvre of around 1500 compositions, written between 1823 and the end of his life. His best known repertory mostly dates from the period 1848- 1861, when the composer had stopped giving concert tours and had become conductor of the court theatre at Weimar. He was doing well and could invest the necessary time and energy in writing large-scale compositions. In that same period, Liszt also revised works he had writ- ten in earlier years (1839-1847), when he was the most celebrated pianist of his time and gave concerts all over Europe. For the most part, Liszt had composed these earlier works for his own use. As the greatest virtuoso of his time, he did not have to make any concessions as far as technical abilities were concerned.

When Liszt revised these earlier pieces during his time in Weimar, he did take into account that other pianists had to be able to play them and he simplified those notes that might pose insurmountable problems to others. At the same time, the composer, who was becoming more mature, discovered that he could produce more effect by using less notes. Liszt would continue this trend until the end of his life, by which time he cut back nearly all ‘unnecessary’ notes so only the musical essence remained. This essence is often very visionary, modernistic and always original.

Liszt was an innovator in every musical genre he tried his hand at. He broke radically with the traditional forms of the Classical era, in order to make room for the imagination. He liked extra-musical sources of inspiration, such as literature, a painting, a sculpture or a landscape.

Liszt introduced a way of composing in which a motive is developed by means of transformation. He experimented with unusual chords and unexpected modulations. This composition method was diametrically opposed to that of the conservative Leipzig School of Mendelssohn and Brahms. Liszt, as the founder of the New German School, paved the way for the music by Wagner, Ravel and Bartók.
