"Letters of Franz Liszt -- Volume 2" by Franz Liszt is a collection of personal correspondence written during the late 19th century. This volume compiles numerous letters authored by the renowned Austro-Hungarian composer, showcasing his thoughts, feelings, and engagements with his contemporaries, as well as providing insight into his creative processes and personal dilemmas. The opening of the volume sets the stage for Liszt's reflections while living in Rome in the early 1860s. In his letters, he expresses a mix of personal and professional sentiments, reaching out to friends and fellow musicians about their lives and works. Liszt discusses his ongoing composition of the "Legend of Saint Elizabeth," his responses to various professional matters, and his musings on friendships, musical trends, and artistic responsibilities. He writes warmly to those he values while also revealing the sense of isolation he experiences in Rome compared to his more communal existence in Germany. The tone strikes a balance of earnestness and wit, portraying Liszt both as a passionate artist deeply invested in his music and as a thoughtful friend reflecting on his connections with others.
