Beschrijving lot

Wove paper, 24,7 x 27 cm, signed and dated (some clear spotting on recto, 2 brown spots and traces of tape on central vow on verso).

From the hand of Franz Liszt (1811-1886), two musical bars from his famous "Galop chromatique" in E-flat major, a "bravura" or virtuosic passage he composed in 1838.
Liszt first concert tour in Belgium took place from February 9th till March 14th, 1841. During that period he gave performances in Bruges (March 6th), Antwerp (7th), Liège (12th), Brussels (13th), and other places; then he left for Paris on the 14th. On several occasions he played the "Galop" and it is quite possible that, traveling from Antwerp to Liège, he passed by Mechelen on March 10th, giving there a private concert and signing this exceptional autograph as a souvenir for one of his numerous fans.
