🇭🇺Franz Liszt ： Symphony No.7 in A-Dur (Beethoven) S.464-7

This work is Liszt’s transcription of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7 for solo piano. It consists of four movements, with dynamic rhythms and a strong sense of forward motion driving the music throughout. Highlights include the bright momentum of the first movement, the restrained tread of the second, the light-footed contrast of the Scherzo, and the vigorous development of the finale. To convey the original orchestral layering on a single piano, it is important to clarify the roles of the melody, inner voices, and bass, while differentiating the sonorities across the registers. The pedal should support the resonance without creating muddiness, and the succession of intricate rhythms benefits from clear articulation and a steady sense of pulse, allowing the work’s momentum to emerge.
