"Sehr geehrtes Fräulein,
   Die kleine Concertsache soll, so gut ich es vermag, nächstens besorgt werden. Gelegentlich erlauben Sie mir wohl auch die etwas argwöhnige Andeutung ihres Schreibens: `es kostet ja nur ein Wort um ... etc` zu berichtigen.
   Als aufrichtig dankbarer Freund ihres verehrungswürdigen Herrn Vaters [der Theologe Gustav S.]  verbleibt Ihnen stets, 
   bereitwilligst ergeben - F. Liszt
26ten August 73 - Weimar"

Translated:
"Dear Miss,
   The little concert thing should be taken care of as best I can as soon as possible. Occasionally you may also allow me to make a somewhat suspicious suggestion in your writing: “It only takes one word to correct... etc”.
   As a sincerely grateful friend of your venerable father [the theologian Gustav S.], you always remain, 
   most willingly devoted - F. Liszt
August 26th 73 - Weimar"

Franz Liszt was born on October 22, 1811, in Raiding, Hungary. He was a Hungarian composer, virtuoso pianist, conductor, music teacher, arranger, and organist of the Romantic era. His innovative piano playing greatly influenced the development of classical music.

At a young age, Liszt began studying piano with his father, and by age six, he was already a prodigy. He went on to study music in Vienna, where he trained with some of the most prominent musicians of the time, including Carl Czerny and Antonio Salieri.

By his early 20s, Liszt had established himself as one of the greatest pianists of his time. He embarked on a highly successful concert tour of Europe, wowing audiences with his technical prowess and emotional depth in his playing.

Aside from his music career, Liszt was also known for his passionate love affairs. He had numerous relationships with some of the most famous women of his time, including Marie D'Agoult and Princess Carolyne zu Sayn-Wittgenstein.

In his later years, Liszt shifted his focus to composition and teaching. He settled in Weimar, Germany, where he composed some of his most famous works, including his two piano concertos and the symphonic poem "Les Preludes."

Franz Liszt died on July 31, 1886, in Bayreuth, Germany. His influence on the development of classical music, as both a performer and composer, continues to be felt to this day.
