🇭🇺Franz Liszt ： Schwanengesang (Schubert) S.560 R.245 – Das Fischermädchen

This work is Liszt’s arrangement of a Schubert song for solo piano, centered on a vocal-like melody and the flowing accompaniment that supports it. While preserving the intimacy of the original song’s expression, it adds the broader range and resonance of the piano, inviting listeners to follow the exchange between melody and accompaniment. In performance, the melody in the right hand should be allowed to sing fully, while the left hand should avoid sounding mechanical and the balance between voices should be carefully shaped. By observing the breathing of each phrase and avoiding excessive emphasis of dynamic or tempo fluctuations, performers can bring out both the song-like character and the brilliance of the arrangement.
