Franz Liszt was probably a (demi)god

Here's a fun exercise: go listen to Edvard Grieg's Piano Concerto in A Minor. Don't worry, I'll wait.

Done? Ok. Now read the next sentence very carefully, and make sure you have a defibrillator on hand:

Franz Liszt SIGHTREAD Grieg's concerto PERFECTLY.

If you haven't heard this concerto before, I'll show you the first part. Just recite it out loud and it'll make sense. Promise.
