The story behind Liebestraüm ❤️Franz Liszt's Liebestraüm No. 3 is one of the most beloved pieces in the romantic piano repertoire. This piece is the third in a set of three "Liebesträume" (german for "Dreams of Love"), each inspired by a different poem about love. Liebestraum No. 3 is particularly notable for its lyrical beauty and emotional depth, and it is intimately connected to the german poem "O lieb, so lang du lieben kannst" (Oh love, as long as you can love) by Ferdinand Freiligrath. (lyrics under)In 1843, Liszt set the poem to music for soprano and piano (that you should definitly listen) and in 1850 he adapted it into this famous piano piece.The piece starts with a serene and flowing melody, symbolizing the beauty and tranquility of love. The composition is structured as a series of variations on the main theme separated by two rapid cadenzas requiring a certain dexterity. As the music progresses, it builds to passionate climaxes, illustrating the intensity of love and the pain of potential loss.#classicalmusic #piano #franzliszt #liszt #romanticmusic #romantic #love #lovemusic #piano #chopin #brahms #tchaikovsky #pianomusic #classicalpiano #composer #liebesträume #liebestraum
