Hi! If you're curious about how this would sound on a fortepiano from 1855, check out my vlog: th-cam.com/video/WriW5YkGv64/w-d-xo.html
I listened to your "Liebestraum" on the old Wagner Erard & I found that piano gave this piece a more beautiful sound right out of the gate! I'm surprised at how overbearing the bass in the modern piano is -- the vintage one's bass is kind of subliminal, allowing melody notes in the middle and upper registers to shine more easily, the whole thing sounding gentler and more humane somehow. Cheers!
(To even things out, how about playing, say, "Schluß zum Vorspiel" on Liszt's piano?) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I am a bloody stupid idiot, say it.
But this sounds so much crisper and the higher keys are like clean shiny pearls compared to the one from 1855.
Tiffany's playing shines here.
I love how you feel it
Congratulations, play Divinely .
I wish you much success.
I don't really understand why you suddenly accelerate and decelerate...
I was just going to sleep.
I guess I can stay up for 5 more minutes.
I can't sleep anymore.
Oh nooo - sleep plzzz
Tiffany Poon too bad it already happenedddd
Man the same thing happened to me 😂
Same classical music activates my brain
or listen to this as you fall asleep!
I wish I could live my life the way you play this piece
I kind of regret this comment now because of how it could be taken. However, one can still wish to live their lives like the final outcome of this performance and not mistakenly believe it was easy.
this piece is easier than most of Chopin etudes
dont we all
@@Chic4rely Yes, and what's your point?
Beautiful comment.
The decision to roll the suspension chord at 2:24 is brilliant. It's such a lovely, elegant touch.
i gotta say, it's one of the things that brings me back to her interpretation of this piece almost every day
@@franciaparra214 In this context, it means to arpeggiate the chord. (In other words, to play each note in sequence rather than all at once as written.)
That is ingenius!
+10000
Unpopular opinion: It isn't. Why? Because the right hand is supposed to be a more stable counterweight to the very active left hand in that sequence. By arpeggiating that chord, this order is disturbed. Liszt chose to write a normal chord, not an arpeggio, at that point for a very good reason.
It makes me pissed that people are saying that she doesn’t deserve to be supported on patreon because she didn’t work hard to get this far. Maybe the physical labour wasn’t as intense but I bet all my money it on the fact that she worked harder to get here than any of you. There’s a reason why she’s world class skill and 99.9% of other pianists aren’t.
You missed more 9s
I don't get what you mean by "maybe she didn"t work hard to get this far"? Everything you hear from her is the result of countless hours of hardwork over the course of nearly twenty years. Anyone who is this devoted to their craft would become a master as a result. Only a small percentage contributes to talent, the rest is hard work. You need ~10,000 hours of work towards a certain skill to become a "master" in it, and she clearly surpassed that point.
@@primeartonline-pianocovers1535 uhhmmm read that again.......
@@rassivoro9416 I did, it said "Maybe the physical labour wasn't as intense, but she still worked harder than all of you". That's true, everyone else in the comment section clearly is not to her level, but saying "maybe the labour wasn't as intense" doesn't make sense to me. She literally devotes her entire life to this, and she has been for over twenty years.
@@primeartonline-pianocovers1535 ahhhhh ok, now I see what you mean, and I 100% agree, pianists put a lot of effort into practicing
Honestly, your liszt is just from another world
Seriously, she plays Hungarian Rhapsody No 2 here: th-cam.com/video/fTSFVBJzgnM/w-d-xo.html
truly fantastic.
@@user-gd8cj7ng5z She, my Georgian bro. Not he lol
@@user-gd8cj7ng5z No; however, I thought that it was clear that we were speaking about Tiffany, herself - and not Liszt.
@@user-gd8cj7ng5z yep its pretty obvious
Indeed, I'm a piece of shit garbage, and this almsot made me cry! She's amazing, amazing!
Imma add this to my play Liszt
hehe
asia-raeee ;-; 😂😂
asia-raeee ;-; lol
this never gets old :D
And it wil stay there for at liszt 1 year

This music is like the different stages of love...
Title means "Dream of love"
Also different stages of a peaceful life
The first part of the song is when you first meet your partner. Deeply in love, you share some of the sweetest and most memorable moments with them. The fresh feeling of being in love with someone and you still have the fuzzy feelings in you.
The second part (where the main "chorus" or melody of this song is repeated, but an octave higher) is when you just got married. A truly sweet and cheesy moment in your life, and probably the most memorable of all. It feels so surreal and so dreamy that you get to spend the rest of your life with the love of your life (I personally think the octave higher version of the melody is just so slightly sweeter and more angelic). You feel like you're on cloud nine and that nothing will ever go wrong. But then as life goes on, you get hit by the reality of life (as we can hear from the piece as it suddenly starts to sound more dramatic and "minor chords ish" during the second part). Things start to get real, and you encounter a lot of obstacles with your marriage and career. You and your partner start arguing a lot, and every day is just a depressing day.
In the end, you and your partner stayed strong, and stayed together till the very end. You two managed to pull through, facing every challenge valiantly. The challenges in life start to subside as you're getting older and older, and life starts getting sweeter again with your partner. When you think back, you realised that the main reason why you and your partner managed to pull through was because no matter what happened, you two always loved each other and were always there for each other. You smile as you revisit all the old memories of you and your partner together. From the very beginning, at the highest points of your relationship, and even the most stressing ones. So in the third and last part (where the melody repeats for the third time), we can hear the dramatic and intense part of the piece quieting down into a smoother, softer, more gentle melody, hinting towards the end of the piece, and also the end of your life. You spend the remainder of your life with your partner together, just the two of you. Having some morning coffee together at the balcony of your small house while seeing the sunrise, talking to each other all day like two young lovebirds. You two stare at the sunrise, both of you feel so grateful to have met each other (we reach the final bars of the piece, slowing down with a rubato). Together alone with each other's embrace, it all feels like a love dream again.
@@justsomeone4797 Aww... A best description I ever read of this song . . .
@@MrArcline Thanks! :D
But yeah that's what I always imagine when I listen to this song
Wow! You are such a beautiful person, Tiffany! I'm 94 years old and you fill my soul with a joy that makes me feel young again.😉 I love your way of playing the piano and could listen to your performances forever. 💞😘
94 ?
I'm 6009 years old now
@@rakagunawan692 lawak
@@rakagunawan692 The idea of running an age race against another person is an entirely new concept to me, so, I'm not quite sure what the rules are, or if there are even any rules to follow in such a race. Perhaps if I stretch the time portion of our present space-time continuum I could acquire the age of 6010 before you. 😕😉😂 Thank you for your unsolicited entertainment. 😘
@@hirawaningimam4057 LAWLZ 😉
Wow, that’s beautiful. I wish you the best ❤️
I’ve been listening to this recording at work since it was available. Gorgeous tones and sensitivity. Simply unmatched as I have listened to a great many renditions in the past. The emotional depth expressed in your performance reaches the listeners directly but gently. Powerful.
AGREED !!
What he said ^^
I've never heard soft moments of the piano played with such sensitivity. The lower in volume a piano gets the harder it is to be really expressive. You just have a much narrower gamut to work with. Yet here she handles it with unforgettable ease. It just flows out of her fingertips and you almost forget to breathe so taken are you with the lilting lift of the music that emanates with such tender gestures on the keys. I'm sure that piano felt so calm afterwards after releasing such a torrid of emotion under her guise.
@@swilhelm3180 Well being a pianist since 13 years old, she maintains communication as the main goal of a performance. She uses excellent technique in order to achieve that.
@@factsverse9957 She didn't start until she was 13???? Most accomplished pianists start at 3 to 5. This just makes this more unbelievable. :)
This is probably the cleanest I have ever heard Liebstraum. I was pretty close to my computer while watching but I jumped back in surprise at 2:24 because it was so... I don't even know. It was so beautiful and clear. Every note is just so CLEAR!!!!! I don't know how much practice and articulation the piece must have taken but the outcome is sooo worth it! I don't even know what to say! It's phenomenal
Goodness goodness Tiffany...Again you blow me away. Nothing that seems effortless is effortless
I remember you told me that :)
One of my biggest inspirations...
Much love from Providence, USA. :)
Liszt would be tearing up listening to this interpretation...
This was one of the hardest pieces I've played, absolutely incredible that you can do it without mistakes so calmly and musically!
Alex , technically there was only one half a sec mistake but everything else was to footnote 😍
why are you so bitter towards Tiffany? If you have time, spend your time elsewhere.
@@petergriffith4109
There are Poeple that are listening and searching only for mistakes even the slightest...because they are mistakes themselves?
John Lovric LMFAO has your life always been this lame yo?
@Reality rupture woah calm down even if someone said something negative they don't deserve to die. That's just plain rude
My favorite piece of Liszt.
this piece is not of liszt it is composed by Liszt, this piec only relates to liszt emotion at the time
this and un sospiro are my favorites of his
@@xharuuAnd harmonies du soir
*i think i cried a lil bit...*
Yes you did, as did l. 🙂
This is the absolute best performance I've heard of this piece. Better than Lang Lang's, Rubinsteins's, Valentina Lisitsa's, Barenboim's, etc. Absolutely phenomenal. Hats off.
Are you smoking? I mean this one is excellent, but it's not better than some of those maestros you mentioned.
This is an excellent rendition/interpretation and beautifully played! I don’t think I can say which or who is better as it’s really personal and subjective. For example, for me personally, Khatia’s performance and nuances from her rendition/interpretation in concert really connects with me. th-cam.com/video/FZ651tNXp0Y/w-d-xo.html. But there’s no doubt that Tiffany is an amazingly brilliant pianist.
they are all good, theres no such thing as ‘best’
Lol no
Advanced Human
You could play it if you spent as many hours and with the same focus as she probably did. Or maybe not.
Maybe not.. probably not... nah... impossible..
veti same,I can Play It and I’’m 15
Péter Kovács have you seen Rousseau ?
@@vetiarvind Tiffany has both a power and delicacy rarely experienced in the piano world. How such a slim frame elicits such grand magnificence out of the piano is a mystery only God can comprehend. I've never heard this piece played with such a unique presence. Its like we heard Liszt himself perform it - if he was this good. :) Which I wonder because this is a pretty impossible standard to attain. Tiffany is a gift to the world.
Can never listen to this piece without tearing up, and yours is the best performance I've ever heard.
Daniel Barenboim's performance is great aswell
Rousseau also did a good rendition on his channel
@@Dustyholes Sure did.
I love Tiffany so much, you can see that she loves piano. She plays with so much affection and is so elegant
Lang Lang did a good performance, too
2:11 lol vibrato in the right hand
Its a way for us pianists to release tension in the hands especially in pieces like this
lmao
@@jullianrenoria9194 Exactly, and I tried 1000 ways to imitate her touch and miserably failed.
@@randomcubing7106 HAHAHA YESSS it happens to cause our hands to slip of the keys while playing lmaooo... i think we do it subconsiosly tho.. we dont realize that we do it when we r tense
@@jullianrenoria9194 I'm not alone to do that?!? I thought I watched too many violinists
Favorite liebestraum interpretation BY FAR
Ninjas cutting onions while i listen this awesome interpretation 😢
Caio Pedroso wut
Same! She plays it so expressively and beautifully!!
bitchasshoeism wut?
@@nicholassanchez1496 - lotsa tears
@@nicholassanchez1496 hes crying cause its beautiful
Ugh, she is just my favorite modern interpreter of Chopin and Liszt.. She is, to use a bizarre expression.. just the most marvellous waveform...
I came here to listen you playing the piece, not to fall in love
She plays this piece way more beautiful then I can find anywhere else on TH-cam
Even better than Lamond? Ok.
Best liebestraum no.3 that I have heard! Hats off
perfect tempo.
I don't usually comment on youtube videos but this made me sob. My grandmother passed away over 5 months ago (on her birthday) and this was her absolute favorite piece. Even after her mind and memories started fading years before her death she was still able to sit at the piano and play parts of this. I haven't been able to listen to it until now but this was really beautiful and I'm sure she would've loved to hear your recording. She's the reason I'm a piano major :) Thank you and keep making music!
idk why among all of the performances, this is my super fav one for this piece *melting like butter
I used to play this song for a girl that I really liked and she would listen to me play over the phone. We broke up yesterday and listening to this song pulls on those heart strings especially when its played this wonderfully. Thanks
Your passion and talent are dripping off you here. I'm almost at a loss for words. Exquisite.
A bit of an insomniac, I'm up at the 'puter checking out the youtube folks who I am drawn to because of their charm or wit or purity of spirit, and I listened to Tiffany's discussion about choosing a conservatory or a college, which was thoughtful and insightful as well, then the Liszt piece rolled around again, and I just couldn't refuse it. Listening on wireless headphones so as not to disturb the "somniac" the sound is rich, pure, melodic and artfully crafted in every detail. I hope I'm not over embellishing my reaction which I've already expounded upon a couple of weeks ago, but some experiences are timeless and well worth revisiting such as is this piece played by Tiffany. I heard you playing it as a young child, and the remarkable difference in the interpretation and execution of this romantic expression of pianist art is dramatic in so many ways. The pauses, the shifting of keys and tempos, the lively twinkling of the waterfall as all of your hands are used to deftly and daintily run down the keyboard in a dripping rush of delicacy and softness...............it's an amazing piece made even more so by your mature gracefulness and personal interpretation. I'm not a musician, but I love the art of music and musicianship, and this may be one of my favorite brief but expressive pieces of any I've ever heard. Thank you for sharing with us, Tiffany.
Such powerful hands, you play with passion
What a beautiful rendition of this musical masterpiece. You are gifted young lady. Blessings on you for sharing your amazing talent.
This is such a tasteful, gentle, and lovely performance of this piece. It's so delicately played, and yet not a drop of Lizt's passion was lost. He gets a lot of flak for overly flashy, flamboyant compositions, especially for this piece, but I wonder how many would soften their views after hearing it performed like this? Thank you for sharing this with the world.
I look forward to hearing it again one day on a freshly tuned piano :P
She deserves more recognition, her piano playing is amazing ❤
This is the best version of liebestraum 3 I've ever heard. Emotion is what makes this piece and I have't heard anyone nail it in that department better than you did. Bravo.
Agreed
holy cow, the amount of emotion you put into your playing makes all the difference. Not only is this already a masterful piece but you have just made it all the better by putting your own emotions into the piece to create a beautiful mix. 10/10
i always have admired the piano it makes such a beautiful sound and the way she plays it is Amazing!

Beautiful n wonderful performance dear Tiffany ❤🎉
I'm a newcomer to your channel and recent subscriber of yours. I want to tell you that your videos are excellent and I love to watch them. You are an excellent musician, and I've had a really good time watching your videos over the last week. I especially like that you play classical music, because I've always had a fondness for that type of music. I can't wait to see your video next. Have a fantastic day.
This is my favorite piece, and studying this piece for hours and listening to hundreds (no exaggeration) this is the best interpretation I’ve heard and very few can even compare
If you ask me what is perfection so here it is. You played it too good! Liszt would be totally shocked if he could see the way you played his piece. You are amazing pianist there are not a lot people like you in our world. You are perfect!!! Keep playing piano and I hope one day you will be the next liszt.
Dude she play it like it's nothing. Just like playing on a piece of paper, so soft and light.
Perfection!!! Thank you, Tiffany❤️💖💙👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This is the finest rendition of liebestraum! So many people make the more passionate parts harsh. This is just perfect!
This is carbon copy of frederic Lamond's interpretation
My favourite song played by favourite pianist!
i love how her hair goes flying :D
I know next to nothing about classical music, but I really needed a romantic, dreamy song that's tough to play for my latest work project. This song was an epic find, and you play it incredibly well, thanks for sharing.
I took a time machine and heard liszt himself play this, I think you have him beat!
Woah chill !
Stop.
Don't talk nonsense.
Anth nooo! The composer never loses to his/her own pieces
Oh, I really love that interpretation! You play with your hearth, and it's very important!
I come back to this often, I forget what it's called but the change she did in 2:23 by playing the notes one by one rather than together is basically the reason I can never listen to other people's version lol
Magician performance, bravo Lady, with love from New Jersey, USA
from 2:09 i officially cannot hold my tears anyomore.,. its too much emotions for me to listen to her playing this masterpiece
This is how the piece was meant to be played.
Thanks for everything tiffany. I love you so much. Thank you...
This video deserve at least 10 million views. I've never seen such an amazing and emotional performance of this piece.
2:24 ever since i heard that special touch i cant listen to any other interpretation
Love’s Sorrow has been my favorite song for so long... now after hearing you play Love Dream I think this one might be tied 😭😭♥️ thank you Tiffany. It’s so so beautiful.
I think lover’s sorrow is better because of its deeper sounds but this one is not too bad
Yours is my favorite version of this piece. I am an amateur and recently started to learn it.
Congratulations on your inmense talent, dedication and passion for what you love. What an inspiration. 😊
the way she performs that first cadenza, so slick and smooth
The color you added in 2:25 always gets me whenever I listen to this recording!
I feel like a wimp but this is the only interpretation of liebestraum that truly almost made me cry tears because of how well its played.
still listening thankfully..
suddenly tears dropping from this filthy eyes.. o god what have i done in my life.. could i do something better to end up in your glorious heaven..
your playing takes me to the another dimension Tiffany...
I just attended a masterclass on liebestraum and today you played it.. such coincidence =D
Herman Pianist , hi , I really really love this piano pieces , I would love to play it a lot , so I want to ask you something : are you really really good at piano like I don’t know how to explain what I want to ask but I’m affraid that I won’t be able to play it even this I think that hard work always pay , but I’m now 17 yo I’ve beeen playing the piano since I was 6 if I remember well , I always add good teachers but cause a leaved abroad many times , there were sometimes when I was not able to take class and play anymore , so even tho my level was good for my age now I’m not sure about how good I am ... do you think that with a lot of work I will still be able to do it ? Thank you !
@@_itsnotcamille_ yes definitely.. with hard work and good practicing habits, one can always seek to improve.
@@HermanPianist thank you for your reply :) you gave me hope , I will try as hard as I can and we will see I guess !
@@HermanPianist how do you join a master class on this piece?
Fascinating performance ❤️
I like the way you don't rush the climax; for me, it's the difference between ephemeral love versus deep love, and also, the difference between being absorbed in one's own world versus desperately trying to communicate the full broadness of one's passion. Very well done in my opinion !
This is so amazing. I've listen to this recording so many times and it never fails to amaze me. The emotion you put into this song is incredible, it makes me think about the moment I first began to love music and all the times I've felt that love since. Right now in a time of darkness you are reminding me of the light, thank you.
Bravo Tiffany .
It's "Brava" for a lady.
This is the most musical and completely performed as well as directly the way the composer intended it to be played. Truly the best I have heard thus far. Beautifully done! Franz Liszt's best composition!
i wish i could live inside of this music, just outstanding
this is truly beautiful omg i can’t stop watching this
words can’t even describe how beautiful this is damn
Ahhh!! This is the piece im learning right now for my dip! Such a good interpretation and definitely something to aim for! Thanks
Incredibly beautiful playing! Thanks for sharing!
You’ve played it so beautiful, so emotional. The best I’ve listened.
You have seriously become one of my favorite interpreters. I’m so grateful one of your videos were randomly recommended by TH-cam otherwise I never would’ve even discovered you!! Bought your music on iTunes and I wish you’d release more! ❤️
I was planning to learn this song and now after watching you play it so beautifully and elegantly, yet really quick, im not sure I can even play this. also great job, it sounds amazing
Tiffany, you are just getting better and better and this was done 5 years ago! It gives me goosebumps whenever I listen to it.
Omg you’re one of my favourite pianist of all time and u play this piece so so good , It’s really emotional and I can really feel your passion from here it’s so touching
PERFECT PLAY, PERFECT TIMING = TEARS IN MY EYES!
This is such a treasure. It brought joy to my heart. Thanks for sharing!
I use to miss Jorge Bolet and Claudio Arrau, but you, young lady, understand Liszt very well . Bravo !
Pure bliss...thank you for sharing your passion.
Absolutely, absolutely stunning. Love the expression and passion given the piece, simply astonishing.
Fantastic!!
Thank you. Listening to this again tonight and it seems very well done, expressing a wide range of emotion, saying something sublimely. Thank you for working so hard on your talent, and more importantly for sharing it with us so openly.
This is just incredible!! Makes me really happy!
I couldn't avert my eyes from you for even a second.. it was so captivating
Love your way of playing ❤ even the way you stay is perfect while you play! ❤❤❤ Amazing work! 😢😊😀😻😻😽❤❤❤
Your touch is just out of the world, one of a kind.
Old video but I saw your post on Instagram and came back to this. One of my favorite pianists ever! I get lost every time I watch you. I just feel so connected with the emotions you're expressing through your playing.
i got goosebumps. she's really amazing. this is so beautiful
Wowww~ You never fail to amaze me 😍😍❤️❤️
omg i actually started crying while watching you play, the way you play is so moving! Thank you for playing this!
Impeccable. Thanks for this rendition.
Wow! I've listened Buniatishvili and Lang Land and this may be my favourite.
I'm not surprised that your playing is so wonderful
I listened to this and the Nocturne in E Flat Major By Chopin And this peace made me more asleep.
I was sight reading this piece today as best I could, stumbling through many areas and just reading in my head at the especially difficult bits. I wanted to hear what it should sound like by a performer and man did you exceed my expectations! I am disabled now in my right arm and can only dream of playing like this. Thank you for sharing this piece with the world 💞
