“Music is a moral law. It gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, a charm to sadness, and life to everything. It is the essence of order, and leads to all that is good, just and beautiful, of which it is the invisible, but nevertheless dazzling, passionate, and eternal form.” Plato

GRIEG AND LISZT: Happy Meeting

      I came across this imaginative description of the legendary meeting of Liszt and Grieg in which Liszt sight reads Grieg's concerto. The meeting is documented in letters and was witnessed by students in Liszt's masterclass. Oh to have been a fly on the wall.
