Also, he traveled +to England and to all the countries of Europe, giving +concerts. His fame was becoming greater and his +<span class="pagenum">[Pg 6]</span> +playing was the delight of all who heard him. Here +are two pictures of Franz as a boy.

Here are two of Franz's friends of +that time.</p> + +<div class="figcenter"> +<img src="images/illus10.png" alt="No. 10" title="No. 10" /> +<img src="images/illus11.png" alt="No. 11" title="No. 11" /><br /> +<span class="caption">VICTOR HUGO - F.

Here +he sits playing. You see he +had only a simple kind of +piano. But he mastered it +so thoroughly that he could +make people wonder at his +art. That is what we learn +from the lives of famous +people. They are always +true to their talent.</p> + +<p>After Liszt had traveled +many years over Europe +(he never visited the United States), he became conductor +at the Court Theatre at Weimar. This new +music work interested him so much that he gave up +travel as a concert pianist. He helped many composers +by having their operas performed at the +Weimar Theatre. Some of the operas that had +their first performance there are now famous +indeed.</p> + +<p>Among these were "Lohengrin," "Tannhauser" +and "The Flying Dutchman" by Richard Wagner.</p> + +<div class="figcenter"> +<img src="images/illus13.png" alt="No. 13" title="No. 13" /> +<img src="images/illus14.png" alt="No. 14" title="No. 14" /> +<img src="images/illus15.png" alt="No. 15" title="No. 15" /><br /> +<span class="caption">R.

Also "Alfonzo and Estrella" by +Franz Schubert was given. It would have delighted +Schubert's heart if he could have heard this; but he, +poor man, had died some years before.</p> + +<p>Then Liszt did something else at Weimar that endeared +him to hosts of pianists. He held classes and +taught the secrets of his wonderful playing to those +who were talented and could understand. He was +the soul of generosity. When someone, who was +gifted but could not pay, came for advice, he gave it +freely. When concerts did not pay, he himself often +took the loss so that others should not suffer.</p> + +<p>Is it not wonderful to think of a man, so loved by +the public, giving with such great generosity? Truly +it is better to give than to receive.</p> + +<div class="figcenter"> +<img src="images/illus16.png" alt="No. 16" title="No. 16" /><br /> +<span class="caption">LISZT AND SOME FAMOUS PUPILS<br /> +S.

There was always a circle of people +about him. And always his full-hearted, generous +nature kept him at work for the good of others. He +reminds us of Beethoven who once said, "Composing +is a capital thing. For instance if a friend is in distress +and I have no money at hand to help him, I can sit +down and compose something which I can sell and +so relieve him." It seems that Franz Liszt thought the +same for he was forever helping someone else.</p> + +<p>We have already seen how Liszt looked as he sat +at the piano (see picture No. 12). This is Liszt at the +conductor's stand. Do you see his baton and the score +on the desk? And the position of the left hand? +When Liszt conducted the orchestra the players +watched every movement of his hands and every look +of his eyes so as to play just as he desired.</p> + +<div class="figcenter"> +<img src="images/illus17.png" alt="No. 17" title="No. 17" /><br /> +<span class="caption">LISZT AS CONDUCTOR</span> +</div> + +<p><span class="pagenum">[Pg 10]</span>Franz Liszt was kind to all people +who came to him. There was +one musician, however, for whom +he did a great deal. You know +him for he composed many operas. +One of them is called "Parsifal." +Another is "The Flying Dutchman." +Place his picture here and +write his name beneath.</p> + +<div class="figcenter"> +<img src="images/illus18.png" alt="No. 18" title="No. 18" /> +</div> + +<p>Some day the operas of Richard +Wagner will give you great pleasure. +At first they were not liked by the public. Wagner +had few friends and his life was very hard. But +Franz Liszt believed in him and in his work. And so +he helped him.</p> + +<p>At first Wagner did not like Liszt. He once said, +"I never repeated my first call on Liszt." By this he +meant that he wished the acquaintance to end. When +Liszt realized that Wagner did not care to understand +him, he tried his best to keep the friendship secure. +Liszt never wished to misunderstand another human +being. So, it was not long before Wagner's opinion of +Liszt changed, for he said, later, "Through the love +of this rarest friend I gained a real home for my art."</p> + +<div class="figcenter"> +<img src="images/illus19.png" alt="No. 19" title="No. 19" /><br /> +<span class="caption">LISZT'S HAND</span> +</div> + +<p>There is one thing true for us all. We carry our +early thoughts along with us all through life. The +<span class="pagenum">[Pg 11]</span> +friends we make from youth and the thoughts we +think from youth are always at hand to bless us if we +have done wisely.</p> + +<p>Once when little Franz was thirteen years old he +played before the English King, George IV. Sixty +years later we see him again, once more the guest of +the English people.</p> + +<p>It is pleasant to think of Liszt meeting again and +again the friends of his boyhood. When he went to +England, on this occasion, he was quite an old man. As +he stepped out upon the stage to play, for the last time, +everybody, even the people outside of the hall, who +could not get in, shouted themselves hoarse. Those +within rose to greet him with tears and cheers that +are given only to the kings of the earth.</p> + +<div class="figcenter"> +<img src="images/illus20.png" alt="No. 20" title="No. 20" /><br /> +<span class="caption">LISZT IN LATER LIFE</span> +</div> + +<p>While we know of this artist chiefly as a great +pianist, we shall learn, as we grow older, that he was +a great composer as well. He wrote music for piano, +for orchestra, for the voice. There are symphonies, +masses, oratorios and cantatas. Once, as a boy, he +met Franz Schubert in Vienna. In later years he arranged +<span class="pagenum">[Pg 12]</span> +many of Schubert's songs in a truly beautiful +way for the piano,—songs like the "Erl King," "Thou +Art My Peace," "Hark, Hark the Lark."</p> + +<p>So we may end by saying that Franz Liszt was a +great man who remained simple and big-hearted all +his life, and one whom the world loved for what he +did.</p> + +<div class="figcenter"> +<img src="images/illus21.png" alt="No. 21" title="No. 21" /><br /> +<span class="caption">LISZT'S HAND WRITING</span> +</div> + +<hr /> + +<p class="h2">FACTS ABOUT FRANZ LISZT</p> + +<p>Read these facts about Franz Liszt and try to +make a story about him, in your own language.</p> + +<p>When your story is done, and you have improved +it all you can, copy it in pages 14, 15, and 16 of this +book.</p> + +<p>1.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> diff --git a/35601-h/images/002.png b/35601-h/images/002.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index
