A fulldome visual tribute to the remarkable music of Franz Liszt.
Famed as a child prodigy, piano virtuoso and enchanter of Europe's concert halls, Franz Liszt was one of the most dazzling musical personalities of his era. In 1844 the hysterical reactions to Liszt and his concerts was dubbed ‘Lisztomania' and he has been described as the first superstar in music history.
To celebrate the 200th anniversary of his birth, the Fulldome Film Festival in Jena created the Visualiszt Awards. The challenge open to students, professionals and freelance producers was to create works that showed how Liszt's artistic ideas and compositions could be translated into the fulldome format. The resulting films vary both musically and visually while paying tribute to the genius of Liszt.
