STORIES OF FRANZ LISZT.
Hi. Supreme Joy When He Wa Kiss
ed by Beethoven.
Franz Liszt was born at Balding,
Hungary, Oct. ??, 1S11. Died at
Bairouth, Bavaria, July 31, lSSli.
The potent influence of the per
sonality of Tranz Liszt, the great
pianist and composer, over all per
sons viih whom he came in contact
was almost as wonderful as his
genius.
While Abbe Liszt would never
take pupils for pay, he took many
in whom he saw ability and musical
enthusiasm. A few Americans were
privileged to play to him, for that
was what constituted study with
the master. There was one young
girl of sixteen from Baltimore who
was so fortunate as to gain his in
terest, and he always called her
"America" instead of by her name.
Liszt allowed a student to show
his own comprehension of a musical
idea, and what criticism he made
was so good naturcd it made deep
impression.
He once said in regard to some
playing where the melody was not
strongly brought out, "When I play,
I always play for the people in the
gallery; they pay so little for their
seats they ought to hear some
thing." At another time he cor
rected a young girl who was making
a peculiar circular motion with her
hand while rendering a diflicult pas
sage, "Keep your hand still; don't
seem to be making an omelet."
At the age of twelve years, when
he played in a concert at Vienna,
Franz had the supreme gift of his
life lie received the kiss of Bee
thoven. In the midst of the tre
mendous enthusiasm of the audi
ence Beethoven went up on the
stage, took the boy in his arms and
kissed him on both cheeks. Till his
last day of life this was a supreme
memorv with Franz Liszt.
At the breaking out of the 1830
revolution in France, Liszt was at
Paris. His father had died, and he
w:is supporting his mother and
studying hard. Lafayette was his
ideal hero. At heart Abbe Liszt
was an earnest republican, and he
had unfailing sympathy with the
struggling mass of the people. One
of his friends saw him in 'a corner
one night in Paris holding the
broom of a crossing sweeper. He
explained that as he had no change
in his pocket to give the boy he had
sent him to have a dollar silver
piece changed nnd was holding the
broom until the boy came back.
Liszt gave money with a lavi-h
hand for all good causes.
One time the great musician was
in Italy having a little journey in
which lie sought to hide his identity
and enjoy a quiet that his fame sel
'lnm allowed him. Attracted by
liicardi's music store in Milan, he
went in and sat down at a piano and
began to play.
In the hushed silence that fell
ipon an eagerly talking group of
persons he heard a voice whisper,
"That is Liszt or the devil!" Chi
