During the annual Liszt Day, organised by the Dutch Franz Liszt Kring, De kleine zeemeermin (‘The Little Mermaid’) will be performed for the second time. The programme further features a recital by the Belgian child prodigy Akari Bastiaans, performing works by Beethoven, Schumann and Liszt; a lecture by Christo Lelie entitled ‘Studying with Liszt in Weimar’; and a performance by pianist Erwin Weerstra, who will first play Liszt’s Sonata in B flat minor and then my seven-part composition mentioned above. During the intervals in the day’s programme, visitors can view the beautiful adjacent Cenakel Church, a national monument.

I have been invited by the Deutsche Liszt-Gesellschaft to present my book Franz Liszt in Nederland/Franz Liszt in the Netherlands as part of the ’44. Weimar Liszt-Tage’. This presentation will take place in the ‘Roter Salon’ of the Altenburg, the historic residence in Weimar where Franz Liszt lived from 1848 to 1861 and composed many of his most important works.
