The same significance that pop stars have now. Only their audience was mostly adults. The music they made is now called "Classical Music" but was then an elaborate form of contemporary, popular music. Virtuoso performers/composers like Paganini and Lizt already had lots of adoring fans and groupies. Their 'significance' if you will was that they helped to make 19th century classical music popular.
