4/5. In 1838 Liszt travelled to Vienna to give concerts in aid of the victims of a disastrous flood in Pest. They were a huge success, enabling him to donate 24,000 gulden, the largest single private donation to the Rood Relief Fund. The concerts marked a return to the concert platform while the critical acclaim Liszt received in Vienna assured his reputation as an unassailable virtuoso of the keyboard. Presented by Donald Macleod.
