Making a Liszt (and "Czeching it" twice...)
Porges was the illegitimate son of
Franz Liszt, a fact widely known during his lifetime (but never publicly acknowledged). Photographs of Porges' daughter, the playwright
Elsa Bernstein, were staged specifically to showcase her unmistakeably Lisztean nose and profile; there was scarcely a musician in
Theresienstadt who didn't know that Liszt's blind granddaughter was locked up with them, confined to the camp's "House For Notables." So why is this no longer general knowledge, here or elsewhere on the web? I know there's historical documentation of the "paternity rumor", so why aren't online biographers clued in?
