Louise Fryer presents Liszt's oratorio, The Legend of Saint Elizabeth in a performance in the Frauenkirche, Dresden
Inspired by the creation of a series of frescoes by the Austrian painter Moritz von Schwind, Liszt's great oratorio sets to music the significant episodes in the life of Saint Elizabeth. Unknown to Ludwig, her royal husband, she distributes bread to the poor and, in the most famous scene, when asked by her husband what is in her covered basket, opens it and the bread miraculously turns into roses.
