Auf dem Wasser zu Singen, from Franz Schubert's Schwanengesang Franz Liszt
Franz
Liszt was a great admirer of Franz Schubert and often looked to his works for transcriptions.
In Stanchen, Liszt varies the theme
by alternating registers of the piano. In
Auf dem Wasser zu Singen, Liszt
echoes each verse of the song differently, playing upon the changing
sonorities. In this song, we see the fight between Major and minor which
resolves with triumph in the major coda. Konstantyn Travinskyy
