Added by bernard-dewagtere, 13 Dec 2010 [?] Among the works on the programme [of a concert at Pesth in February 1846] was the march which now serves as the finale of Part I of my legend of Faust. It had been written the night before I left for Hungary. A Viennese music-lover, well acquainted with the ways of the country I was about to visit, had come to see me a few days earlier with a volume of old tunes. "If you want to please the Hungarians, he said, write a piece on one of their national themes; they will be delighted, and on your return you will tell me about their Elien (hurrahs) and their applause. Here is a collection from which you can choose." I followed the advice and chose the Rákóczy theme, on which I wrote the grand march which you know. (H. Berlioz, Memoirs, Second visit to Germany, Third letter to M. Humbert Ferrand) Sheet central : | La damnation de Faust (37 sheet music) | |
