Kids had mixed reactions to this. Some thought it was boring, had an uninteresting plot and that only kids interested in music would like it. Those interested in piano or violin music enjoyed learning about Liszt. They enjoyed the child character.
Introduces classical music through a biographical sketch of a composer's life with a fictional side involving a child co-star thrown in. Quality production, beautiful costumes and sets. Historical characters are well presented. A little slow-moving.
Set in Budapest in 1846, this program celebrates the inextinguishable flame of genuine talent shown by a free-spirited eleven-year-old gypsy boy who inspires a frustrated Franz Liszt to reach his own potential.
