The annual Liszt Festival, sponsored by the South Florida chapter of the American Liszt Society at FIU, is dedicated to advancing knowledge about the great Hungarian pianist and composer Franz Liszt. For this evening, FIU Artist-in-Residence Kemal Gekic and pianist Jose Lopez perform music by Liszt and Romantic contemporaries.
