Much of this article reads like a personal dissertation on the subject. The grammar is subpar as well. Why does this page even exist when there exists a quantitative list of the works of Liszt? Liccposting (talk) 12:32, 7 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

The article is a description of Liszt's compositions and compositonal style, not a catalogue. Besides that, you are quite right. The article is poorly written, as is case with a considerable number of Liszt related articles. Unfortunately, I don't have the necessary skills or time to contribute to the improvement of the article. Arthur Milios (talk) 14:06, 14 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
