Reading notes
- A Romance with a Double Bass §53 рапсодию Листа
Franz Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsodies were dazzling, technically formidable virtuoso showpieces for piano; Lakeich's tall tale of having learned to play one on the ungainly, low-register double bass (an instrument never used for such music) is the height of his comic boastfulness.
- Forgotten!! §38 Liszt
Franz Liszt (1811-1886), the Hungarian composer and virtuoso pianist whose showy Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 is the very piece Gauptvakhtov spends the whole story trying to recall.
