🇭🇺Franz Liszt ： Années de pèlerinage “Venezia e Napoli” Tarantella S.162/R.10

“Tarantella” is a brilliant, technically demanding miniature dominated by sharp rhythms and a constant sense of motion. In the fast, dance-like sections, the strings of rapid notes should remain light and even, while accents bring out their vitality. In the lyrical passages with a more relaxed tempo, the melody should be shaped expressively, making the contrast between the different characters clear. As the piece moves toward its conclusion, the tension is most effective when it is heightened not through volume alone, but while maintaining a steady tempo and clarity in the figurations. Use the pedal with care, changing it in response to the harmony so that the sound does not become blurred.
