Outro: Liszt - Un Sospiro
Hello, I'm Rousseau, I make piano covers of classical and pop songs with a reactive visualizer. New videos every Monday!
#Rousseau #Piano #PianoCover - เพลง
Liebestraum No. 3. Translating into English as 'Love Dream', this piece is arguably one of Liszt's most beautiful works, and along with Un Sospiro, is a personal favorite of mine. It's amazing that through his music we can feel the emotions that Liszt felt back in 1850 as if it were yesteday. Since Valentine's day is coming up this week, I couldn't think of a better piece to perform for you. Enjoy ♥
Play the Pokémon theme song but advanced
My fav piece. Been asking for ages.
Rousseau let’s see Florian burr my world!
Please please please play g minor by bach. I've been requesting this song to you since a long time.....
Fantastic work Rousseau! When is Liebeslied or LiebesFraud coming? I think either would be perfect now with valentines day!
I've spent months learning this, and I was almost done, so that I could play it for my girlfriend. But she broke up with me a few days ago and now I don't get to play it for her. It hurts to listen now, but this is such a gorgeous piece.
awh noo thats so awful for u. But honestly, if you spend such a long time learning this piece for her, she really doesnt know what for an amazing person she just lost.
It will go better for u and i hope you will find someone who will stay with you for the rest soon of your life and who u can play this beautiful piece for, ur really worth that :)
Holy shit I need to step my game up 😂 I’m having a super hard time learning a simple Steven universe song for my husband. Whom ever you end up with is going to be the luckiest person. Keep being amazing! Don’t let this bring you down. You deserve everything and so much more 💕
:( at least you know how to play it

@@bb2501_ yeah same I think she may hopefully come back to you.
As a normal person this song makes me want to fall in love but as a pianist this song makes me want to die.
As both it makes me want to fall in love and want to die
@@matyasb.molnar2985 lol
It's one of my favorite pieces to play aswell.. Just the pure passion and power of the second halve of the piece is so much fun to play.
I actually relate to this on a spiritual level 😂
Someday you can play it, don´t doubt it. I have seven years playing and will try to learn this, make the easier parts and after that fireworks on the middle. Go part by part and you can learn anything.
Mother played it every night. Never had a lesson. Her heart could play it even when she lost hearing. What a great gift.
I'm 84 and can still feel her love
bless your mother. This is such a lovely piece to hear.
Rip
Bless both you and your mother, this was so lovely to hear
When I was a kid, I had a toy that played this piece. It’s one of the reasons I’m learning piano at the moment. It’s such a beautiful piece, and your mother was incredibly skilled to have been able to play it :)
GUYS I HAVE DONE IT. I have learned the entire piece after motivating myself by watching this video for 3 straight months. After a lot of practice, I am proud to say that I can play it.
i am currently learning it and i got to the part where both hands jump at the same time, its pretty hard 😂 but i think its achiveable
living my dream
Nice dude I'm working on it too. Tough ain't it?!
@@plohck2068 good job dude, we're proud of you
@@DGuadalupePerez Thanks, i lost some motivation and took a little bit of a break over the summer from piano, but i have started up again and this time I have a due date for it to be learned so Im starting it up again

To everyone who wants to learn this beautiful song, don’t be phased. I’m learning it right now and not gonna lie, at one point I thought I’d die but it really gets a lot better once you get past the third page. Literally the only hard page is the third page, the rest isn’t too bad. It’s actually really fun to learn and it sounds gorgeous so don’t give up!!
Fourth page is as difficult I think
god, i'm learning this too. i'm stuck right in the middle of the cmaj part/right before the final key change. i think it's the hardest thing i've ever tried to learn, and since i'm a senior in HS with no plans to study music in college, it might be the hardest thing-- and the last-- that i ever learn. but every moment is worth the pain, because it's the the sound of falling in love.
Andrea K, Hey I would really like to start learning this piece but I cannot find a the original sheet music for it online. Either that or it’s a paid website. Any recommendations?
@@a.k.2373 I would recommend Slideshare; I got my sheet music there!
@@a.k.2373 try musescore. Free sheets there
When I found this piece four years ago, I was on the verge of of quitting piano for good because I had lost all passion and want for it and was completely done with it.
Before I was about to throw my keyboard away I began briefly listening to a few songs on it before getting rid of it for good. I was scrolling and skipping most songs but then I came to this one. It immediately caught my interest like no other piano song had done before. It was only a snippet of the beginning of the song, but I still loved it. I listened to it again and again before deciding to search it up on TH-cam. I found a few videos and orchestras but I didn’t really like them and was ready to give up and forget about this song.
But then I found this video.
It was like nothing I had ever seen before. I had never seen the piano played in such a way, with such emotion and grace. I never knew such sounds could come from a piano, let alone from 2 small hands and 10 skinny fingers. I was in love. I listened to it back to back to back for weeks and never got sick of it. I got chills (and still do get chills) ever time I hear the climax of the song.
This song single-handily reignited my passion for piano. It inspired me to keep going, so that maybe one day I could learn this song and maybe play it as beautifully as you have. I have now finally begun my journey to conquer this song.
Piano is now one of my most favourite things in this whole world. I genuinely could not live without it, and to think I was even considering giving it up. I have come so far as a pianist and while I do have a bit to go, I’m proud to be apart of this community.
Thank you for this. Thank you for showing me how incredible piano can be.
Amazing man how far into the peice are you?
Good luck!
That’s amazing, I’m so glad you love piano. I think people really miss out on this kind of music
You are an inspiration to me cuz I’m in the same situation you were in but this song has really made me want to try again
Liebestraum (German for Dreams of Love) is probably the saddest and most passionate of all of Liszt’s compositions. The meaning of this song is the dream of love - of being reunited with a lost love that exists in your dreams - only to be brought back to reality, where that love exists no longer.
theres no way you actually think lieb 3 is liszts saddest and most passionate piece
betting my piano and dog that the only other liszt piece you’ve listened to is la campanella
@@coolliam422I mean bro it's his opinion, the interpretation is subjective, so he's technically not wrong

That is the musical manifestation of a smile.
I smiled reading this
*Arpeggios*
It's more like a moment of pure ecstasy, atleast for me
You are god damn right. I always smile at this part
I love this 😊
0:00 Wow, what a beautiful piece that could be learned by beginners!
1:55 Oh right, it's Liszt
Thats not the hardest check out 1:18
You're so right albedo
@Name yup i realized now i tried learning it
Wtf
Beginners will really really struggle with the first part, its a romanticism composer, not a classical one. Theres almost no paterns and the main melody its on the right hand (not to mention its a 3 voices piece)
@@caballogris4475 My comment was just a typical Liszt joke... I'm perfectly aware that difficulty in classical music isn't determined by how many notes are played at once.
One of the most beautiful pieces ever written by a human
Yeah, because I don’t know if Ludovico Einaudi is even on the same plane of reality as us, let alone human.
What Einaudi writes is beautiful, but insanely simplistic, nothing in the same dimension as actual piano pieces
Did you know liszten to his history properly 😮 Liszt is god's messenger he's a saint who's pieces of muszic are like a diamond in the sea which shines forever he's a genius he's magical may God bless him
@@aniri2Amen 🎉
"By a human", you normally listen to ai-composed pieces? Haha
I usually listen to classical music in the background whilst I do my work, but everytime this song appears I always close whatever tabs are open just to focus and appreciate this masterpiece

2:03 sounds so beautiful and intense like Liszt just poured his heart out on the piano
Geno
I mean he is one of the defining composers of the Romantic period.
@@fumikotsukumi017 I know, but this song in particular just sounds so warm yet intense, it's simply one my favorite pieces from the romantic era, let alone Liszts'
Geno
Defining, for its intensity. I agree.
@@Ale-qf1pm exactly what I was thinking
This piece was composed just after Chopin' death. I think it was dedicated to him... it was more poetic than most other Liszt works... so he did pour his heart out! :)
Original Comment (Somewhere in Mid-October): This is one of my “dream pieces”. Currently working on a Bach Invention (F major), haven’t touched Liszt at all yet, but oh how I desire to play this beautiful piece. Hopefully I’ll be able to come back a few years later and say I did it!
1 month update 12/09/2022: Got a piano teacher and set up lessons for 2023 after not having lessons for almost a year! She can play this song very well and I’m hoping to eventually get to the point where I can learn it with her help (maybe 3 years from now?).
2 month update 01/10/2023: It’s the new year and I’ve started lessons once again! My teacher said I’m better at sight reading than she thought I’d be, lol. I’ve got piano homework, including going back to that pesky (but fun) invention I mentioned in October. Looking forward to practicing lots and seeing gradual improvement! As I said to her “My realistic piano goals will keep me motivated in the short term, and my lofty ones will keep me motivated in the long term.”
1.5 year update, 03/21/2024: I’ve taken a break from piano, not because I want to, but with university and not having easy access to a piano I’ve mainly only played on breaks. I also am chronically ill now yay. But I am okay, I will be able to play lots from May-August since I’m on break then :) thankfully before that I made some solid progress. I learned how to play Mozart’s K. 545 sonata in C, 1st movement last year. So I think that’s a good start in developing my classical piano skills.
Damn bro trust me it doesn’t take 3 years to learn this piece, even if you are entirely new to piano
@@showtun1_655 I get what you’re saying, it definitely won’t take me 3 years once I start learning it, but I’m not going to try learning it until I’m up to snuff, whenever my piano teacher thinks I’m ready I’ll learn it. Yeah I could learn it now, but I don’t think I’ll be able to do it justice until I’ve honed my skills further with more technical practice. I’m only at level 7 RCM right now, and this piece is miles above that
@@orionyxe this will take a couple years because it’s not all about just playing the notes, it’s about having the experience and being able to actually play the music and not just the notes.
@@JKsmoove3 I agree with you, that’s why I am not going to start learning it until I have the skills needed to do the piece justice
One of my dream pieces is Les Cloches de Genéve by Franz Listz (same composer of this piece). Although I don't know if I want to learn S.156/3 or S.160/9
The beauty of this piece is like no other. This piece embraces the notion of a “Love dream”. Love is an incredibly complex emotion to speak. It can comfort you, bring you joy, and make you feel loved and cared. Love can also tear people apart. A relative passing away is a perfect example of that. Seeing your loved one die is no one’s dream however, it does not mean love is lost.
Love is something that exists like no other. It doesn’t exist like in time, nor in space, yet we still feel it. Love transcends through time and space.
I’ll tell you what I interpret from this piece. I’m not an expert in music theory if you wanted to know. Neither do I play the piano or any instrument(I Wish I could), yet I can still interpret something. That’s how beautiful it is.
0:00-0:38 - For me, this interval is like the seed of love. The beginning of a relationship with a romantic partner. The thing is, love doesn’t just spring out of nowhere, it takes time, yet love is still there. Kind of like the ripple effect. Relationships start off small, yet can develop more significantly than anything else. The most powerful notes I hear are the Middle C, C-Sharp, F, G, and G-sharp. The Middle C is probably the most eliciting one.
0:39-1:12 -For me, this interval is when the relationship strengthens. Maybe you talk to this person every day, eat with them, and spend time with them. The strongest notes are the same.
1:13-1:32 Simple pattern yet complex meaning. What I derived from this is the start of having feelings towards your romantic partner. It starts with small, little, sometimes unknown, to the knowledge of those feelings and the volume of it.
1:33-1:56 Huh. This part was confusing to interpret at first, but what I came up with is something that many people feel today. The idea of “We’re just friends”. In your heart, you know that’s not true and that your relationship is much more than that. However, you feel embarrassed to express it. The strongest notes for me were E and D-Sharp.
1:57-2:38 My favorite part of the entire piece. This part is the reason why the song has left me in tears sometimes. THIS Truly IS TRANSLATING THE FEELING OF EXPRESSING ALL OF YOUR FEELINGS TO YOUR ROMANTIC INTEREST. Kind of like a great cry, “I love you!” The strongest notes here are G sharp, this key makes it so lovely.
2:39-2:53 -Starting a new chapter in life. This time, though, you don’t leave that door without that special someone.
2:54- 3:46 For me, this interval is another love seed. This time, though, you know what true love truly is and you’re eager to give it. Whether that be your kid/ adopted kid. Very similar to the first interval because it has a similar meaning. Same strong notes as 1st one.
3:47-4:28 Going back to your first true love, I think this is a sad goodbye. This is the saddest part of the song for me. However, that doesn’t mean that all love is lost. You still love them even if they’re gone because they aren’t gone. They’re still living in your heart
That’s dam long
Beautiful interpretation! Thank u for this😊
This is the most beautiful thing ive read
Just wow that comment gave me a better understanding of this piece and almost brought me some tears
this is such an underrated commment, i loved what you said. every moment and how interpreted it was beautiful.

I found this piece and started playing it, then my mom comes up to me amazed and starts tearing up saying that it was her dad's favourite piece to play on the piano, he was absaloutly amazing, he died not long ago, Rest In peace Grandpa, ill keep playing this for you
that’s so heartwarming 💗
If you mix Happiness, anger and sadness it comes to this..
That sir, is love
@@anvilgames2421 Yes
heartache.
This is exactly how I mentioned this piece of mine to people back in the 1800’s
Sincerely, Franz Liszt
You forgot passion
From what I remember, Liszt wrote this having in mind the message of "loving, and loving again, even when the object of your love has drifted away from you" - as he was a man of many sorrows, with his wife passing away, then both his children passing away, and falling into a depression as a result. But he tried to live on and continue to love through life despite all these sorrows, which have probably given this piece such a greater depth to the word "love"... Liszt eventually became a monk, which we may now see as evidence of how this man struggled to continue loving, even God, to a point that his love matured beyond what initial stages of young love can aspire to.
There you go again. Reminding me of that! 😭😭
Omg is it normal if I cried reading this :(( gosh i- I don’t even know what to say
A love master piece❤️
Woah...
Deep
"Life is like a staircase. You just gotta keep climbing. Otherwise, if you start to overthink it, you'll have trouble taking the next step."
There are no branching paths. No point in regretting the actions you didn’t take. They say life is a series of choices, but that’s nonsense cooked up by the old and bitter. Yesterday leads to today, and today leads to tomorrow. One step at a time. What lies ahead? You won’t know until you get there.
YMH
Boop Boop.
I want this song played at my funeral unironically

Ээ
As far back as I can remember, this is one of the first pieces I heard someone play, it was a stranger on a public piano on a busy street. I asked my parents for piano lessons that night. Now, seven years later, after conquering some Debussy and Chopin, I remembered this piece and printed it from IMSLP. I still struggle through the first 2 pages (up to the cadenza), mostly because my hands are too small, but I'm so much closer to learning it than ever before, and this performance, although it's more flashy than heartfelt, reminds me that if I keep practicing, I'll be able to play it once I have the musicality to sing the melody. I encourage you to listen to a professional musician play all of Rousseau's repertoire, it's truly eye-opening. For this piece, find Khatia's performance!
Keep on going! You'll be able to play it one day
So how's your interpretation going after one year?
@@JulianDupuy The middle section is messy, it's hard to execute the leaps and the large chords/octave runs while still being dramatic, but the slow sections and the cadenzas sound pretty good. I took a break to learn some Scriabin miniatures (Op 32 is beautiful) but I'll definitely go back and polish it off.
This piece is so easy!!!

Proud of you King! I started learning it a year ago for my girlfriend, I learned up until the end of the first cadenza. Then COVID hit, lockdowns, I got a bit depressed and I stopped playing piano all together. Now I'm picking up where I left off, one day I'll be able to play this song for her.

I learned this song for my girlfriend, and It took me 9 months almost on the dot. I wanted to play it for her in person when I’d perfected it, but a week after I’d finished it, and before I was able to play it for her, she broke up with me. I know I’m young, and it doesnt compare to the heartbreak of some others, but now I cry when I play this song. Thank you for playing this. This song gave me 9 months of joy, promising her I’d play it for her someday, and although it ended poorly, I was in love, and I would never take anything back. Thank you
It's so sad that Chopin didn't heard this. Frederic Chopin (1810-1849). This composed in 1850.
Luckily Chopin and Liszt were actually bros (friends)

It has taken me years to find this again. There was a version of this that used to play on a baby mobile I had when I was very young. The only physical thing I had to remember this was a 30 second voice note my mum had taken years and years ago. I’m so glad I have found this again.

The moment you think you can learn this
Then you remember its Liszt
The Classical Nerd Of Classical it all starts at the cadenza 🤧
yes, it is hard indeed, but i've been playing piano for less than 2 years and i can already (kinda) play this, only because i practiced really really hard. don't let the big names and youtube videos fool you. you can do it!
...and still manage to do it
Right about 1:18 was that moment for me
1:17
its currently 1 am and i decided to just listen to some piano music and man i closed my eyes while listening to this its soo beatifull i almost fell asleep,and when i opened my eyes i felt .. i dont know how to explain it, i felt soo relaxed i dont know i felt fresh idk man it was soo amazing words cant explain this beauty
I was supposed to learn how to play the piano when I was very young, but after a serie of unfortunate events, I was never able to do so.
As a kid, my dream was to be able to play that song once in my life, I found it so mesmerizing.
Now, many years later I still didn't grow out of that dream so I come from time to time to listen to that masterpiece just once more to feel just a bit nostalgic.
This comment section is filled with pros or skilled people and my comment will probably be out of place in it but this song does bring back memories.
Its never too late to learn piano! I think you should start because everybody deserves to follow their dreams and passions ❤️
You don't have to go the classical/traditional route of having to learn to read and playing hundreds of songs before getting to this one. I've personally only learned like 4 milestone songs each taking me a lot but it was a lot more fun than having to learn to read and having to play so many classical songs that I don't like. Fast-forward to now and I'm learning how to play this and it's even a bit easier than I expected it to be (although I'm only at the first cadenza as of now)
It's a lot more effective to just learn a song to get to a level and then grind out a new one that is out of your reach because if you just play it slowly you can literally learn anything.

DANG! This is a million miles away from the piano course book 1 arrangement I'm struggling with.
Oh well... journey of a million miles begins with a single step.
I'd better enjoy the journey.
Last year around may I met a guy who would change my life. I didn’t know it at the time but he’s become a super important part of my everyday life. I started talking to him June July and august and started inviting him with my friends and I because I thought he was an interesting character. We hit it off for our love of classical music and quickly became good friends. Sometime around September he asked me out on a first date. It wasn’t completely unexpected- one of my guy friends told me he had a crush on me, which made me super nervous to be around him- i reciprocated but I didn’t want him to find out! But, when he asked me, i agreed readily. I remember at the time this was one of my favorite songs because of the purple quality of the key (chromesthesia- really satisfying that the colors kinda match up in this video) and his voice often would sound purple to me. I remember after our first date I had work to do in the evening so I turned on my playliszt and this song was there. I remember listening to this song all throughout August, September, October, and a little of November. It was very cliche but I didn’t mind at all; I felt so in love. After awhile, as school started busying me more and more, and my tastes in music shifted as he showed me more music (I showed him music too of course! Liszt is my fav), I stopped listening to this song. I found it again today, January 10, 2020. I’ve been going through a rather rough patch recently and I’ve been trying not to cry all day. Depression’s beating me down and everyday life is becoming more and more of a chore. However, this brought me back to the cold October days spent sitting by the railroad tracks together when I wasn’t so busied and felt truly happy. Thank you, Rosseau, for being a deep emotional part of my memories. I hope one day to find this comment in the future, and I hope I will still be with the most amazing guy I’ve ever met. : )
Ash Valentine Amazing story! Also nice pun “playliszt” 👍
Bro very nice
Same timing, different story over here. But for us is over. Met her around May last year. Asked her to be my girlfriend on 16th of September. It was over on January. Hope the best for you two.
@@vicnie1 Awwww : ( ( that is sad but thank you for your well wishes
Hope my relationship could turn out like that.. Wish me luck.
I love how you can feel Liszts pouring every ounce of his soul into this piece with the gentle tenderness and the harsh strokes of the keyboard. You can feel the love and toil, the torment, everything this is supposed to tell.
1:55 literally gave me goosebumps

If you think Beethoven's Fur Elise is the best classical piece, you should *Liszten* more
there are people who exist and think fur elise is the best piece?! (I know people have different taste, but still)
@@reasondro Yeah, fur elise is a good piece but comparing it to Beethoven's other pieces, it's kinda decent imo
@@rule4592 decent is an overestimation
Nice pun 👉👉
@@Bassy8OverOne Yeah but the Chopin Liszt one is better
Im almost finishing learning liebestraum for my grandmother, im so glad because I didnt give up. Thats why you should never give up when you are doing something hard or at a difficult moment , because after The suffer you see how hard you work and how good you can be.
It’s been a while, did you finish?

What a beautiful piece, to the point where I could feel the song speaking words(feels like two people fell in love and this is their life story of them being together )
After hearing this, I remember that I used this ringtone on my old Nokia
Makes a change from grande valse
so that’s why this sounds so familiar thank you

Imagine being able to play this piece, can't relate
It’s actually pretty easy
Once when I was 10 years old, I overheard this piece of music, because it was one of the ringtones on my mom's cell phone. I know it sounds stupid but I fell in love with that music because of that and I really dreamed of learning it someday, so I spent days and days searching the internet to find a free sheet music (maybe now it’s easier but I was difficult back then) until I managed to find one that was in poor condition but could be read, so I printed it and decided to learn it. I only used to play piano for fun, just like today, I hadn’t even taken piano lessons so I read the scores with my basic knowledge and finally after 4 months practicing, I managed to learn it completely, of course never perfectly... in fact my lack of knowledge made me use the left hand to play the right hand parts an octave lower sometimes and vice versa (and many other mistakes). But I didn't care at all, I was so happy to have learned such a beautiful piece complete by myself without any help and for me it was perfect. Then when I grew up I didn't have much time to practice and nobody forced me to do it since it’s just one of my favorite hobbies so I never play with pressure. I'm in college now and even though I play piano sometimes because it's something I love, I completely forgot this piece. I remember the first part and then I get stuck. I‘ve tried to relearn it but it‘s horribly difficult for me and I lose my patience too fast. I always ask myself why it's so hard for me now. It should be easier... my fingers are no longer so short. But I guess it was something that only my passion and patience as a child could do so easily. Maybe I just need to dream a little more...
poetic
Dang! I could never imagine playing this after 4 months and I've been playing piano for 9 years! Maybe also because my hands are very small and have difficulties with octaves...Good job!! And my mom had it as the ringtone too and I loved it even though it didn't sound that good on a old nokia XD
I went to piano lessons but I quitted and now I learn piano pieces by myself
respect
I'm learning it for the first time now, in the same way...very slowly and without training. It's not a difficult piece, but it's extremely slow for me because I have to memorise as I go. You can do it, just let it happen slowly. Good luck!
This is what I love so much about the classical music community.... Everybody supports each other and motivate them so that they achieve their goals ❤❤
i just recently lost my job and it sent me into a chaotic depression, but then i realized that just piano music soothes my soul, and i stumbled upon this beautiful masterpiece.
Good luck on life mate, wish you the best.
"So is the melody in the left or right hand?"
"Yes."
Not only is this stolen from another video (I think un sospiro but I could be wrong) it doesn't even apply because for the majority of the piece the melody is in the right hand
Yeah Ben it is Un Sospiro
U must be fun at parties Ben.. but i guess you hear that often
Proton1 ill take your teeth
It was simply a joke
Will you share this video with a special someone on Valentine's day?
For that I should have a special someone!
might as well play it XD
bro we're all single and lonely
If we have one that is.
I wish i could...
I can play a pretty simplified version of this piece and am planning on learning the entire thing as I progress in my piano journey. Just beautiful
Honestly, this is a beautiful piece as many people may say. I only ever founded this piece because of a manhwa call Define the Relationship (this is literally their theme song it's so beautiful). Honestly, the title 'Love is a Dream' fits the mood of this piece. 💗💗
Well, I'm telling you that I did it anyway. Define the relationship 😻
Grew up listening to my father playing this. Talk about a nostalgia.

What a great piece, so many memories are in this when i play, from school to school to home to wherever, i still remember playing it at the supermarket piano when i only knew till the jumps, so many memories, thank you Liszt
Roger
One of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard. It is, just, holy christ. It tells such a story without a single word or other instrument.
This piece gives me slight sense of euphoria and nostalgia. Like a strong feeling of satisfaction. Like a walk across a million flowers. Like time spent in the field with the scent of woody summer's air, under the blazing sun. And like being near the one you love.
Happy Valentine's ❤
I waited so long just to Liszten to this

Goddamn you I wanted to make that. Ur lucky u saw the video before me.

Oh, I cried, I have never heard such a wonderful work, it makes me touch all the tender corners of my soul
i sent this piece to my girlfriend yesterday, and said,"i cant describe how much you mean to me in words. maybe this will do a better job." she absolutely loved it. thank you so much rousseau!
thats so sweet
cheesy
Plot twist: he has no girlfriend.

@@zecube4662 r/ihavereddit
I don't know what the original intent was but this sounds extremely sad to me, really hard to describe but something like a love that never came true.
Un amor que nunca pudo ser, eso me sucedió hace poco y tienes mucha razón, esta pieza me llena de nostalgia por eso. Saludos.
This piece is based off of a poem that symbolizes the incredible feeling of love felt even after the death of a spouse
Alec Dukas well Liszt sure fucking did it, I can barley see through my tears.
This is the third “Liebestraum” in a set of 3. Based on love poems. The first one is about young love, the second about erotic love and the last one about mature love. Look up the poems and you will understand.
Maybe that’s why it is called Love DREAM I suppose, and yeah I feel the same, somewhere over sadness and nostalgia
This is my favourite of all Liszt’s pieces. It captures the raw emotion of the soul crying out, wordlessly screaming emotions on the keyboard.
Au Lac de Wallenstadt in the corner: 😭
If you haven't you should listen as well to the Norma Fantasy. It's as beautiful as this but 10x better. Trust me! Guaranteed your easy new favorite.
@@therealransuthank you for the reccomendations, I always love learning about new music
@@icebear6757 Glad to hear. Curious to know your thoughts on it
my favourite is probably one of his annees de perlerinage or sonata in b minor
Nothing is more entertaining, surprising, wholesome and depressing than reading classical music’s comments
Always listening to this while studying. This piece is so beautiful and it always makes me wanna cry whenever 2:01 hits.
It also makes me wanna die when 2:01 hits if I’m the one playing it
People who think für Elise is the best classical piece should listen more
Spoken like someone whose favorite song used to be fur elise
@@AF-jx7hz big fax lmao
People who think fur elise is the best classical piece probably don't listen to a lot of classical music
@@sephryn6112 exactly why they should listen more I've played for people annoying how much they ask for it but they react like I'm Beethoven cuz I can play that piece

"Life is like a staircase. You just gotta keep climbing. Otherwise, if you start to overthink it, you'll have trouble taking the next step. There are no branching paths. No point is regretting the actions you didn't take. The say life is a series of choices, but that's nonsense cooked up by the old and bitter. Yesterday leads to today, and today leads to tomorrow. One step at a time. What lies ahead?. You won't know until you get there."
Beautiful.
If you don't mind me asking, this is a quote from Totono right?
That's a great perspective
I remember I used to be able to climb the stair up and down on "all-fours" if I tried to do that now I get scared and unbalanced.. His just made me have a flashback of almost falling but catching myself with my other "paw".
Thank you very much! This gave me a more deeper insight and more understanding from the piano piece! I can't thank you much!
I could probably listen to this eternally
The downstairs neighbor back in my old apartment used to play this song all the time. She would only play a portion of it though, but it was beautiful. Never got to hear her finish it before I moved out, but I’m glad I found it today and was finally able to hear the entire thing.
OMG IT'S FINALLY HERE!!! Rousseau, I can't thank you enough for playing this piece! I hve been asking for you to play this piece since you uploaded La Campanella! You are an awesome pianist and please keep uploading videos! I love you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I know right? He played it wonderfully.
Yeah I love this piece so much. I don’t know why I even hesitate to learn it...
Same here!! :D
i have the same feeling.
@@keepray learn with dedication and no piece is impossible. Unless you're talking about some of Chopin and Liszt etudes! Liebestraum No. 3 is one of the easier pieces by Liszt. I have faith you can do it.
Feels so good to say I can finally play this beast all the way through. It’s far from perfect, but the nine months of hard work (and almost quitting in the first week) have payed off. For anyone learning this piece, keep going. This is one of those pieces you will never forget.
Congratulations!
Hope you never forget how to play it!
Just keep playing!
9 months??!!!!!
@@Nothing19998 In hindsight it was a much shorter, about half that time actually 😂 Feels like an eternity learning this song though
I tried like hell. I needed a teacher for some parts of it. But in spite of my efforts, I gave up due to bursitis in my shoulder and never picked it up again. I still love listening to it, but it's not the same as playing it.
@@PIANOSEEDS To be honest, I have forgotten how to play a majority of this piece due to not practicing it😂 Sorry to hear about your shoulder, that definitely must be hard to deal with. As you said, it isn't the same playing is it listening, but you should also remember that you did accomplish much more with this piece than most people ever will! That is a huge accomplishment within itself.
quitted piano years ago but trying to learn this…wish me luck💀
When I was a child my next door neighbour Franz played this on the grand piano. It has stayed with me for many years. Franz was an amazing pianist even then. I am listening now and it takes me back to sitting in next doors living room listening whilst Franz played. We lived in Kirkby Liverpool and I was 10 so Franz was probably about 15.
Wonderful memories.

As a pianist this song makes me cry but not because it’s beautiful
1:32 is my favorite part in the piece, in my opinion it reminds me of when you finally accept that you are in love with a person and everything suddenly calms down
0:00 - 1:16: ah thats a nice piece I should practise
1:16 - end: OK WTF
Just Liszt things
I mean it's still a nice piece
@@skyfire299 nice?
It's the most beautiful piece Liszt ever composed.
According to me ofc.
Same here. I think I'm going unemployed for a year, so I can learn it.
Alexander Blue ah shoot, good luck bud.
When I hear this piece, I imagine a love story
0:05 You’re sitting at a coffee shop, minding your own business, when suddenly.
0:30 You see the most beautiful woman.
0:41 You contemplate approaching her, cycling through different possible pick up lines until.
0:49 You get up out of your seat. You’re gonna do it. You’re gaining confidence. But then.
1:00 You start to panic. What if she says no? What if you trip? What if you spill her coffee on her? You arrive at her table.
1:06 After you use one of your corny pickup lines to lighten the mood, you ask her out.
1:17 She pauses. She looks stunned at first. A million thoughts are flying through you’re head. Until.
1:27 That one word comes out of her mouth: Yes.
1:33
She said yes. She said yes? She said yes! You can’t believe she said yes! You walk back to your table to grab your coffee and back to hers. You sit down with her and start talking. You have a lot in common with her. She’s a musician, just like you. You love that.
1:58 You go home that night thrilled. You’re dog doesn’t know why you’re so excited but loves it. You can’t wait to go on your second date. You start to plan it out and think about where to go. You even go as far as making up scenarios for yourself about what could happen. You start talking to your dog about it because you’re so happy
2:03
It’s the second date. It’s even better than you thought it would be. You’re going hiking with her.
2:14 You’ve gone on so many dates now you can’t even count. You’ve gone to all of her concerts and she’s been to all of yours. You’ve moved in together.
2:20 You really think she’s the one. You’ve gone out to buy an engagement ring. You’re going out with her tonight at the best restaurant in town. You’re gonna ask her at dinner. You’re nervous but excited
2:27 You finally pop the question. She’s overwhelmed with emotion and can’t even speak
2:31 She says yes a thousand times over. You’re overcome with joy. You’re going to be a husband and maybe even a father. Your mind is racing, thinking about the wedding location, how many kids you’re going to have, but suddenly
2:39 Fantasy falls away like shattering glass, revealing reality. You’re experiencing so many emotions at once, sadness, grief, confusion
2:54 You’re back at the coffee shop. Nothing has changed, except the temperature of your coffee. You look over at the woman. She’s still there, but isn’t looking at you. You’re sad but you don’t have the guts to walk up to her.
3:12 You ask for the check and walk home, thinking about what you two could’ve become. What you thought you two became. The opportunity you missed.
3:46 Your door shuts behind you as you arrive home. You’re dog runs to see you, his tail wagging. However, he notices your discontent and looks concerned, trying to cheer you up
4:02 That night, as you lay in bed. You think about what happened today, and come to terms with it. You were sad, but you were sad about something that never even happened. You sleep soundly, content with the fact that there is always tomorrow.
i really like it, it feels real.
Underrated comment bruh
Wow
That was a really good plot twist
Beautiful ❤️
it is Valentine's day 4 years later, thank you for letting single me be happy on this day.
I've been practising this nonstop for months. I'm finally at the stage of polishing it up. My aim has been to have it 'perfected' by the time I'm back home with my long-distance girlfriend - but as of today, we've broken up. I still find this piece beautiful. I'm still in love with the feeling I get when playing it, but it's such a shame that the first time I perform it, it won't be for her. I'm not even sure how I'll be able to 'perform' when the whole time I've spent learning it, it was with her in mind. The thought of performing it for her allowed me to persevere when it was particularly challenging. In a way, it's always going to be for her - not because it is, but because it was. Feeling this way is probably just because of how recent it is - so it's fresh in my head. But damn, it's hard not to think that. I hope the time will come when I have found the right person, and I feel the girl I'm with then in this piece - so as I play it, it will be for the right girl. And then, I shall finally be able to perform it.
