Mediatisation in 19th Century Music

Résumé

Franz Liszt was one of the most prominent pianists and composers of 19th Century Music. His great reputation is essentially due to his concert tours as pianist through all Europe especially during the Glanzperiode (1838-48), his work as editor and his commitment to create the Neu-Weimar-Verein which leads to the foundation of the first national school: the Neudeutsche Schule. A lot of cartoons in the press underline the glory of the pianist. His image is very often that of a sulphurous virtuoso and a seducer, playing the piano with an almost diabolical gift (like Paganini for the violin). But apart from this image, the composer has managed to develop his immense network, to form discourses based on new aesthetics and the genius loci of the cities where he lived, and to use fully his intercultural and interdisciplinary experiences to innovate and change his environment. But against all odds, the hero Liszt during the Weimar years (1848-1861) does not appear on the pictures published by Richard Pohl 1855 in the Illustrierte Zeitung. These pictures, which are designed to publicize the Liszt salon, underline its specificity as a fraternal cenacle defending the aims of the Neu-Weimar-Verein, a vision diametrically opposed to Parisian virtuosity salons. This reflects an extensive change in the career of Liszt since his Weimar years.
