  • Franz Liszt: Variations for bars 207-253 of the fourth movement of Frédéric Chopin’s Piano Sonata No.3 (reportedly written for Olga Janina, a student of Liszt), S.479b.
    "Frédéric Chopin's Piano Sonata No. 3 in B minor, Op. 58, is the last of the composer's piano sonatas. Completed in 1844 and dedicated to Countess Élise de Perthuis, the work is considered to be one of Chopin's most difficult compositions, both technically and musically. The work has a structure similar to Johann Nepomuk Hummel's Piano Sonata No. 5 in F Sharp Minor, Op. 81.
    [...] Its turbulent and dramatic introduction - a rising harmonic progression left hanging on a high dominant seventh - aside, the finale, in B minor, is pervaded by a "galloping" rhythm; emphasis in the melodic line on the first and third beats of each half-measure outlines the fifth through eighth degrees of a harmonic minor scale, in this case the F# and B, lending prominence to the augmented second between the sixth and raised seventh scale degrees, the G and A#. The overall melody, chromatic yet rooted in the minor tonic, contributes a dark mood to these primary sections. A more triumphant second theme in B major, repeated twice in the movement's A-B-A-B-A form, appears quite suddenly at the conclusion of the first (likewise when repeated); eventually rising during fleet-fingered runs over a left-hand melody, it tumbles back to a dramatic restatement of the main theme in both of its appearances. The piece concludes in a jubilant B major coda." (Wikipedia)
    "Liszt wrote the variant very wisely and logically when one looks at the entire Finale. This movement, which is in the form of a rondo, begins in thirds in 6/8 time signature. The reappearance of the theme shows the left hand in quartos (polyrhythm) and subsequently in sixteenths, i.e. again steadily, regularly. On the other hand, the Liszt variant goes further and introduces quintuplets instead of sixteenths, which yield a polyrhythmic pattern, followed by triplet regularity with left hand leaps and naturally enhances the expression and strength of the Finale." (Tomasz Kamieniak)

    probably the closest we've been to be Chopinist xD
    also if you Chopinists are still confused, Liszt's contribution is 3:25 to 4:11

      I hadn't listened to this piece in quite a while, so I was wondering when the Liszt bit was, and then 3:25 came and I knew!

      Am I crazy or does the left hand play quintuplets at 3:25?

    i actually dig 3:44 and i think that’s what chopin should’ve done for this sonata haha. however I dont like the texture starting from 3:25 to 3:43 as i find that texture super clunky and i find that the sextuplets with that single tenor line more tumultuous and dramatic for some odd reason. really love the idea at 3:44 though. I like, really hope someone plays it like that!

      but it fits so nicely lel, and arguably somewhat more pianistic than Chopin's writing here

      as far as we know the Muse Press company have published an edition from the same movement including Liszt's variant (which you can find in here: muse-press.com/en/product/mp09201/ ), also the American Liszt Society have published their own edition through one of their journals

      @Liszthesis  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Chopin was allegedly mad about Liszt's extemporaneous embellishments for one of his Nocturnes, not this piece. Also I don't think Chopin would have been mad about this faithful and more pianistic (if not necessarily better!) retranscription.

      the catalogue on Wikipedia is pretty unreliable coz so many Liszt's previously unknown works have been catalogued since...

      what do you expect lul Chopin would have been very displeased were Liszt to further embellish this piece with his typical treatment (for the operatic fantasies for example)
