Funérailles is the 7th piece in the collection of piano pieces by Franz Liszt entitled Harmonies poétiques et religieuses (Poetic and Religious Harmonies). It was an elegy written in October 1849 in response to the crushing of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 by the Habsburgs.
@xmenrus it was probably claudio arrau who was a chilian pianist and a child prodegy. He took lessons with martin krause in Berlin, one of the last pupils of liszt!

Brings out colors and sounds- oboes, bassoons, trumpets, bells, thundering horses- but most of all a DEPTH in his playing missing from others. From utter despair to hellish chaos, this interpretation is unrivaled.

I heard a pianist, orginally from the Argentine and a child prodegy who took lessons in Paris circa 1912 from another pianist who studied under Fraz Liszt. So his method was that of Liszt. I wish I could remember his name.
