🇭🇺Franz Liszt ： 12 lieder (Schubert) S.558 – Du bist die Ruh

This arrangement by Liszt is based on a Schubert song, allowing the melody formerly carried by the voice to sing through the piano while giving the accompaniment a rich, expansive sonority. Centered on the gentle and intimate flow of the melody, the music unfolds as phrases overlap, bringing together the quiet feeling of the original song and the expressive possibilities of the piano. In performance, it is important to keep the main melody consistently clear while shaping the supporting harmonic tones with restraint. Use the pedal to connect the sonority without allowing it to become blurred, and give careful attention to natural pauses that suggest breathing and to the expressive detail of the delicate ornamentation.
