Liszt: Liebestraume No. 3 in G Major

Description

Liebestraum No. 3 in A-flat major is the last of the three that Liszt wrote and the most popular.



It can be considered as split into three sections, each divided by a fast cadenza requiring dexterous finger work and a very high degree of technical ability.



The same melody is used throughout the piece, each time varied, especially near the middle of the work, where the climax is reached. In that section, the melody is played by a series of octaves, followed by arpeggios
