Having performed all over Europe, Franz Liszt decided to settle in Weimar, Germany, in 1848 and focus on composition, with encouragement from the princess Carolyne Sayn-Wittgenstein. This was the period of his greatest production. He composed the first 12 symphonic poems as well as piano concertos and choral music. Liszt taught many pupils at Weimar.
