All the money and fame in the
world couldn't compare to the joy of creating something all his own.
Set in 1846, Liszt's
Rhapsody celebrates the miracle of talent and the triumph of dreams
fulfilled.
Rich and successful, a
dashing young musician superstar so adored that women faint when they meet him
in the street, Franz Liszt is restless. He knows that something is
mission in his glamorous life as the world's greatest concert pianist.
He meets Josy, a naturally gifted young Gypsy street musician, and
subsequently wagers that he can turn Josy into a world-class musician.
The bet turns into a mighty struggle of wills - the worldly sophisticate
against the resourceful Gypsy boy and a conflict of freedom vs. discipline,
heart vs. brain, passion vs. technique.
