To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
By his ren. dering of this single fugue of Bach's, Liszt revealed Bach to me ; so that I henceforth knew for certain what to make of Bach, and how to solve all doubts concerning him. I was convinced, also, that those people know nothing of Bach ; and if anyone chooses to doubt my assertion, I answer : " request him to play a piece of Bach's."* I would like further to question any member of that musical, temperance society, and, if it has ever been his lot to hear Liszt play Beethoven's great B ...flat Sonata, I would ask him to testify honestly whether he had before really known and understood that sonata ? I, at least, am acquainted with a person who was so fortunate ; and who was constrained to confess that he had not before understood it. And to this day, who plays Bach, and the great works of Beethoven, in public, and compels every audience to confess as much ? a member of that " school for temperance " ? No ! it is Liszt's chosen successor, Hans von Billow . So much for the present on this subject.
