Musician's or Publisher's Notes
Widmung Robert Schumann (arr. Franz Liszt)
Liszt was by far the greatest and most prolific transcriber for piano of works originally intended for other instrumental combinations. These transcriptions of songs, chamber music, operas and symphonies of both great and obscure composers number in the hundreds, and they did much to popularize the original works in the pre-recording age.
Liszt transcribed Widmung, originally a song by Robert Schumann, in a straightforward manner. The melodic line is unembellished, and the texture of the accompaniment is expanded to an orchestral fullness. The title translates as "Dedication". Soojin Ahn
