About Franz Liszt's Weihnachtsbaum (Christmas Tree)
The "Christmas Tree" belongs to Liszt's late period, and was dedicated to his granddaughter Blandina von Bülow. It's a highly diversified work, where moments of rather sugary sentimentality (The Shepherds at the Manger) stand side by side with martial pomp (March of the Three Holy Kings) and visionary passages with Ravel-like harmonies (Evening Bells).
