Knowing more about the First Music’s Superstar, Franz Liszt Not the Beatles

Most people think that music idols particularly young women crying, swooning, and sobbing first emerged in the 1950's and '60s with the fault of Elvis Presley and Beatles. For our generation, they can be One Direction or well sad to say, Bieber.

But nope, neither Elvis Presley nor Beatles. It was Franz Liszt, a talented young Hungarian who overcame his poverty to become an authentic celebrity. Liszt was not in an era of recording post-war music, but he was in classical concert halls of the 19^th in Century Europe.

 According to the Oxford English Dictionary in the report of BBC, it states that the word 'Liszt' that we are using now came from the name Franz Liszt meaning as becoming famous, Liszt. The legendary composer, pianist, and the violin virtuoso Niccolo Paganini were referred to a high strain of Lisztomania, which means an intense idealism over Franz Liszt.

The discreet-profile legendary musician Franz Liszt (1811-1886) was once a child prodigy who began spelling charms on a little audience in Vienna, Paris, and London at a young age. Not just a natural gifted musician, he has also captive looks every time he cultivated at the piano, by tossing his shoulder and swaying over the keyboards as he played.

"Lisztomania" emerged in the 19^th Century German Poet and Liszt's contemporary, Heinrich Heine. A Principal Lecturer in Media and Communication at Sheffield Hallam University and an expert in fan behavior Dr. Ruth Deller once stated that most of the activities that fans have made today including emotional and physical responses such as cheering, screaming and swooning can be related to Franz Liszt's era.

At the peak of his career, Franz Liszt was really a musician icon, no one was better than him in his time. However, there's a big difference between Liszt's time and the generation today starting from the Beatles up until today, according to Catholic World Report. There are many factors in a musical stage play; charisma, branding, looks, catchy tunes, and marketing are all part of the equation to become a famous musician these are all predictable but not the talent.
