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

This work is Liszt’s arrangement for solo piano of a song by Schubert, distinguished by its light, buoyant accompaniment and songful melody. Beneath its bright and approachable character lies a subtle shade that suggests emotions liable to change, making it more than a merely brilliant miniature. The music unfolds its melody while maintaining a flow reminiscent of walking, with changes in register and resonance shifting its expressive character. In performance, the accompaniment’s rhythm should not become too rigid; it is important to maintain a steady sense of forward motion. Letting the melody sing fully and listening closely to the colors of the inner voices and harmony brings out the delicate nuances beneath its brightness.
