The symphonic poems are a series of 13 orchestral works by Hungarian composer Franz Liszt |
|
|
The first 12 were composed between 1848 and 1858; the last, Von der Wiege bis zum Grabe (From the Cradle to the Grave), followed in 1882 |
|
|
These works helped establish the genre of orchestral program music—compositions written to illustrate an extra-musical plan derived from a play, poem, painting or work of nature |
