Hungarian Rhapsody No. 6

With numbers 2 and 6, we are now making a start: All of Franz Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsodies, these brilliant piano extravaganzas and favorites of every virtuoso, are on the planning list for the coming years. Hungarian folk music was a source of inspiration for Liszt throughout his life. The most famous example is the Hungarian Rhapsodies for piano, which made the characteristic syncopated rhythm of the Puszta melodies and the fiery temperament of the Csárdás known worldwide. The popularity of these pianistically demanding pieces is reflected in countless arrangements, including adaptations for orchestra.
