- Hello pianists!
In this video I talk about one of the most beloved song transcriptions by Franz Liszt. Widmung is a part of a song cycle Myrthen, Op. 25 by Robert Schumann, and I haven't met anyone who doesn't find it beautiful.
If you are working on it, here are some ideas to make it sound more beautiful. If you are here to simply appreciate the piece of music, I do play the complete piece at the end of the video.
Thank you for watching.

Love this so much. It's not a coincidence that all my favourite pieces are transcriptions?
Ballet from Orphee et Eurydice - Gluck/Sgambati
Liebeslied - Kreisler/Rachmaninoff
Le Cygne - Saint Saens/Godowsky
Chopin Piano Concerto Larghetto - Chopin/Balakirev
Casta Diva - Bellini/Thalberg
On wings of song - Mendelssohn/Liszt
And of course Standchen/Widmung and Auf Dem Wasser Zu Singen by Schubert/Schumann transcribed by the great Franz Liszt.
It's as if everything Liszt touches becomes magic.
It is also no coincidence that Liszt Rachmaninoff and Godowsky were all fantastic pianists and knew exactly how to write for the piano. I mean they could have turned dirt into something completely satisfying to play on the piano. 😆
Beautiful playing and soothing voice 🥰😍😍
You are so kind. 🥰
This is such a treasure trove of pithy advice. It's wonderful to see this practice process unfold with such a beautiful piece. It reminds me to slow down and relax and be patient with myself which is much needed. Sublime playing at the end Jeewon! Thank You! Best.
Your words inspire me! - I will keep doing my best to make my videos “treasure trove of pith advice” Thank you!
So gorgeous!! I hope you do more videos on Liszt's transcriptions like the Standchen and Ave Maria.
In addition to your exquisite playing, I greatly appreciate your excellent tutorial on technique. As an amateur I greatly appreciate your insights and it is reassuring to recognize how much work professionals put in to achieve their exceptional results. Thank you.
great performance
A sublime mélange of music and poem!
Wish I were a pianist to be able to take advantage of this instructive video.
Formidable cet enseignement 👏👏. Merci beaucoup
Such a great video, thank you Jeewon!
Beautiful as ever! Thank you !!
"🎹♥🌹Thank you for the meaningful information. Reading the poem and understanding the works emotion. Wonderful instruction, video and Playing."
The hard bit is in the end: listening to your interpretation... I usually do that with eyes closed.
연습중인 곡인데 정말 큰도움이 되었습니다 💗💗
저에겐 제일 듣기 좋은 말씀입니다! 감사합니다.

Widmung
Du meine Seele, du mein Herz,
Du meine Wonn', o du mein Schmerz,
Du meine Welt, in der ich lebe,
Mein Himmel du, darin ich schwebe,
O du mein Grab, in das hinab
Ich ewig meinen Kummer gab!
Du bist die Ruh, du bist der Frieden,
Du bist der Himmel, mir beschieden.
Daß du mich liebst, macht mich mir wert,
Dein Blick hat mich vor mir verklärt,
Du hebst mich liebend über mich,
Mein guter Geist, mein bessres Ich!
Lyricist: Friedrich Rückert, 1788 - 1866, vertont von Composer Robert Schumann; Myrthen Op. 25 No. 1 (As-Dur) 🎹🎼🤍

Dedication
You my soul, you my heart,
You my rapture, O you my pain,
You my world in which I live,
My heaven you, to which I aspire,
O you my grave, into which
My grief forever I’ve consigned!
You are repose, you are peace,
You are bestowed on me from heaven.
Your love for me gives me my worth,
Your eyes transfigure me in mine,
You raise me lovingly above myself,
My guardian angel, my better self!
Hello, love your piano music^^
and I have a suggestion.
Would you mind to adjust the camera angle, so that it may also show the pedaling(not only fingerings) in your upcoming videos? It will be very kind and helpful for the new players and beginners to have references from you, and also let the whole picture more complete.😊😊
Good idea! Thank you.
