Gergely MadaraAbout
The Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Ličge, led by Gergely Madaras, presents the original, purely instrumental version of the Faust Symphony from 1854. This gigantic work is complemented by the first of the Mephisto Waltzes, inspired by Nikolaus Lenau’s vision of the Faust myth. These two works offer two very different perspectives on Liszt’s intense relationship with the character of Faust, and in particular with that of Mephistopheles, around whom many of his compositions are structured. They are key works for understanding Liszt’s aesthetic project and the typical nineteenth-century tendency towards a combination of the arts.
