[[Charles Alexander, Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach|Grand Duke Charles Alexander]] had been attempting to arrange Liszt's return to Weimar ever since he had left, and in January 1869 Liszt agreed to a residency to give masterclasses in piano playing.{{sfn|Walker|1973|p=82}}{{sfn|Baker|2005|p=86}} He was based in the Hofgärtnerei (court gardener's house), where he taught for the next seventeen years.{{sfn|Walker|1973|p=83}} From 1872 until the end of his life, Liszt made regular journeys between Rome, Weimar and Budapest, continuing what he called his {{lang|fr|vie trifurquée}} ("[[tripartite (theology)|tripartite]] existence").{{sfn|Walker|1973|p=87}} It is estimated that he travelled at least 4,000 miles a year during this period in his life – an exceptional figure given his advancing age and the rigors of road and rail in the 1870s.{{sfn|Eckhardt|Mueller|Walker|2001|loc=§24}}

Liszt's time in Budapest was the result of efforts from the Hungarian government in attracting him to work there.{{sfn|Walker|1973|p=87}} The plan of the foundation of the [[Franz Liszt Academy of Music|Royal Academy of Music]] was agreed upon by the Hungarian Parliament in 1873, and in March 1875 Liszt was nominated its president.{{sfn|Hilmes|2016|p=262}} The academy was officially opened on 14 November 1875 with Liszt's colleague [[Ferenc Erkel]] as director and [[Kornél Ábrányi]] and [[Robert Volkmann]] on the staff.{{sfn|Liszt Museum|n.d.}} Liszt himself only arrived to deliver lessons in March 1876.{{sfn|Hilmes|2016|p=263}} From 1881 when in Budapest he would stay in an apartment in the Academy, where he taught pupils in much the same way as he did in Weimar.{{sfn|Pesce|2014|p=50}} In 1925, the institution was renamed in honour of Liszt.{{sfn|Hooker|2021}}
