This composer's travels to Switzerland and Italy inspired his piano pieces Album of a Traveler and Years of Pilgrimage, whose title refers to Goethe's ["GER-tuhs"] Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship. A poem by Alfonse-Marie de Lamartine inspired a work by this composer that a portrayed a subject by varying a descending half-step, ascending perfect fourth motive in his symphonic poem Les (*) PrÃ©ludes ["LAY PRAY-loods"]. This composer wrote a highly chromatic work that barely uses traditional harmony in his Bagatelle Without Tonality, which may have been intended to replace this composer's fourth and unfinished Mephisto Waltz.  For 10 points, name this virtuoso pianist and composer of Transcendental Etudes and 19 Hungarian Rhapsodies.
