Показать описание
Franz Liszt: Album-Leaf/Albumblätt/Albumblätter/Feuille d'album 'Prelude Omnitonique', S.166e.
After several months of hard researching... we finally found it!!! (We decided to dedicate a whole video to this album-leaf due of the huge amount of work we took for researching it hehe). One may find this leaf curious and ahead of Liszt's time while another may find it not that interesting and irrelevant so... let us know your opinions about this excentric album-leaf!
Liszt never lost interest in the question of tonality—a question which, for Liszt, was long standing. As early as 1832 he had attended a series of lectures given by Fétis. From these lectures, Liszt derived the idea of an onde omnitonique, much like a Schoenbergian tone row, that would become a logical replacement for traditional tonality. For him such a row would be part of the historical process from a "unitonic" (tonality) moved to a "pluritonic" (polytonality) and ended in an "omnitonic" (atonality), where every note became a tonic. In his marginalia to Ramann's biography of him, made after he had turned 70, Liszt called the "omnitonic" an Endziel or final goal of the historical process. He also composed a "Prélude omnitonique" to illustrate his theory. This piece was long considered lost but has recently been discovered. (Wikipedia)
