🇭🇺Franz Liszt ： Winterreise (Schubert) S.561 R.246 – Mut

This transcription of a Schubert song, arranged by Liszt for solo piano, is marked by a sense of forward motion and clear rhythmic energy befitting the title “Mut” (“Courage”). The vocal melody and the movement of the accompaniment alternate and overlap as the music progresses, while its energetic passages are balanced by lyrical expression. In performance, the melody should remain prominent, and the accompaniment’s rhythm should be kept light and precise. Shape the dynamic changes broadly without relying on sheer force, and pay attention to the phrasing and transparency of the sound so that both the original songfulness and the vitality of Liszt’s piano arrangement come through.
