Showtime with Strings Attached: The Romantic Concerto in 60 Seconds. Take a minute to get the scoop!
Fun Fact
Franz Liszt’s piano concertos were so demanding that critics sometimes accused him of showing off. He didn’t mind—he once said performing should “transport the listener.” Paganini caused similar uproar: audiences whispered he’d sold his soul to the devil to master the violin. Marketing hype, 19th-century style.
