Péter Takács Further information on the relationship between Miklós Wesselényi and Franz Liszt On his way to St. Petersburg in March 1843 Franz Liszt visited Miklós Wesselényi in Freywaldau. The pianist virtuoso who was guided on this journey by Sándor Teleki came to salute the politically outcasted „boatman in the flood". The exiled politician was visited by Liszt who himself came to understand his patriotism due to the great floods in Pest. Wesselényi - who was lauded by Vörösmarty in the poem (Boatman in the flood) - was moved by Franz Liszt's visit who also had a poem written about him and praising his Hungarian patriotism by Vörösmarty. Wesselényi wanted to reciprocate the musicians thoughtfullness. So he wrote about the visit to Benjamin Kelemen and Lajos Kossuth. And on the ist and 2nd of April 1843 he sent several letters to represantatives of Bihar county)to use their influence to suggest to the king - Habsburg III. Ferdinand - to give Franz Liszt a noble rank.
