Liszt is considered to be the greatest virtuoso of the 19th century, and many of his compositions - the piano concertos, Hungarian rhapsodies and so on - are familiar. But what was the legacy of Liszt the teacher? Jonathan Dobson has been talking to biographer Alan Walker, reading the memoirs of pupils and listening to recordings by some of the most talented, including Eugen d'Albert, Arthur Friedheim, Arthur de Greef, Frederick Lamond, Moriz Rosenthal, Emil von Sauer and the conductor Felix Weingartner.
