Summary/Abstract: Musically, the romantics cultivated an asymmetric melodious structure; the harmonic conception is more colorfull, more varied, the existing polyphony is more in the form of overlapping sound planes. The timbral, rhythmic and architectural diversity is much more pronounced than in Classicism. Franz Liszt, a musician with a complex biography, had a special predilection for the genre of rhapsodies. All Lisztian piano innovations are present in Rhapsodie Espagnol: chromatic scales, arpeggios, thirds, sixths, parallel octaves, chords in different registers of the piano. It is approached by pianists who wish to integrate them into a valuable work - not only for its virtuosity, but also for its diverse expression and its romantic musical construction.
