Constance Bache 11 March 1846 - June 1903 was an English composer, pianist and teacher. Bache was born in Edgbaston, the daughter of Samuel Bache (1804-1876), a Unitarian minister at the Church of the Messiah, Birmingham; an uncle on her mother's side was James Martineau. After learning from her brother Walter Bache, she studied at the Munich Conservatorium and subsequently under Karl Klindworth and Frits Hartvigson. After an injury to her right hand, Bache gave up public performance excepting occasional Birmingham concerts. In 1883 she moved to London, where she took up teaching and writing - especially translation from German. Franz Liszt is a composer, transcriber and pianist virtuoso Hungarian born on 22 October 1811 in Doborjan (Austrian Empire) and died on 31 July 1886 in Bayreuth (Germany). Liszt is the father of modern piano technique and recital. With him came Impressionism on the piano, the orchestral piano - Mazeppa, the Fourth Study of Transcendent Execution - and the literary piano - Years of Pilgrimage. Innovator and promoter of the "work of art of the future" (the "music of the future" being an invention of the journalists of the time) Liszt influenced and supported several major figures of the nineteenth century: Richard Wagner, Hector Berlioz, Camille Saint-Saens, Bedrich Smetana, Edvard Grieg and Alexandre Borodine. As fruitful as it is diverse, his work has inspired several major currents of modern music, whether it is impressionism, folklore renaissance, film music or serial dodecaphonism.
