Alan Walker is an English music historian, formerly a music fellow at the BBC, and since 1971 head of department at McMaster University in Canada. He has authored and co-authored many music critiques and musicology publications, and he has organized several Liszt symposia and festivals around the world. His three-volume monograph (Volume I: The Virtuoso Years - 1811-1847, Volume II: The Weimar Years - 1848-1861, Volume III: The Last Years - 1861-1886) is considered by both the international experts and the musical public to be the most prestigious and complete Liszt biography.
