| On June 9, 2001 I performed Liszt
and the Cross at the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music in
Budapest.
This past June I took the students from the Bösendorfer
International Piano Academy to see this remarkable city,
home
of so many great musicians including Liszt and Bartok. See pictures from the 2007 Academy |
