The overture to a cantata, and compositions for pianoforte, by Franz Liszt
- Scope & Content:
-
ff. 1-8. 'Zur Beethoven-Cantate Vorspiel,' by F[ranz] L[iszt]: the unpublished overture to the Cantata 'Zur Säcular-Feier Beethovens,' begins 'Sternenschimmernde eisesflimmernde Winter,' which appeared in 1870. Written for oboes, clarinets, bassoons, horns, trumpets, harp, drums (timpani and Posaunen) and strings, in score; about 1870. At the head are the words, 'Dirigatur oratio mea sicut incensum in conspectu tuo,' and at the end '1 Mars.'
ff. 9-26b. Compositions by Liszt, for Pianoforte; 1882, etc. Autograph. 1. 'Csardas Macabre.' The date 'Februar, '81, Budapest' (on f. 15b), followed by the composer's signature, has been crossed out, probably because the work was not finished till rather later. f. 9. 2. Reminiscenses de' [Simone] Boccanegra' de Verdi,' dated at the end 'Venezia, Decembre, '82.' f. 17.
