Over the years Herz has had a very bad press, a situation begun through the writings of Robert Schumann and continued ever since, yet in his day - and this was primarily in the early part of his life - his music outsold all rivals, and his tours, particularly as the first major pianist to visit the USA, brought him huge success. This dichotomy is easily explained: Herz never tried to be a 'great' artist, though he was often judged against such criteria; he was an entertainer.
