Jonathan Powell plays Liszt's sonata at the 2017 Indian Summer in Levoca Festival.
The only Piano Sonata of Franz Liszt, which he completed in 1853, stands at the apex of high romanticism in music. Its single-movement structure, combining and condensing the traditional elements of a four-movement work into a version of classical sonata form, was groundbreaking for its time. The opening theme – a leap upwards, followed by a descending motif – is inverted in the second theme with a leap downwards. The elements of these themes infuse all the other themes of the work. Both Faustian and autobiographical programmes (themselves neither necessarily contradictory nor disconnected) have been proposed for the work. Others have suggested religious sources of inspiration related to the Bible (in its entirety!), the Fall of Man, and Milton’s Paradise Lost. Others have maintained that the work, unusually for Liszt, has no extra-musical allusions.
