I’d play him some David Helfgott and Lang Lang, and then Liszt would ask to be dead again.

I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this, but I had a great time reading Borodin’s letters this summer, among which were one of the best depictions of Weimar and the old Liszt I’ve encountered. Through those it’s not difficult to tell what at least HE would have liked. He was all about novelty and ideas, was frustrated by the sedentary German school and, completely correctly, saw the future in France and Russia.
For what it’s worth I strongly recommend Borodin’s correspondence. As you probably know he was chemist first and composer second, and that is never more apparent than in his letters which are authored almost like scientific observation reports. Annoyingly enough aside from the parts about Liszt’s own playing, where all analytical skills abandon him.

Iirc Borodin was a quite remarkable man who could also legitimately be considered a women’s rights activist.
