  • Op. 62 no. 6 of Mendelssohn's Lieder Ohne Worte has the accompanying title "Frühlingslied" or "Spring Song," and the popularity of the music is testament to its evocative power of summoning those spring feelings! In this video we take a closer look at the playful melody that's constantly undergirded by quick and soft arpeggios traded between the hands. With pianist Henrik Kilhamn.

    With regards to pedaling: a third option would be pedaling the first 2 beats and taking off for the last, since there is a rest. Totally different texture with that too.

    When learning this piece, I would suggest first playing all the arpeggios as block chords to get a feel in your hands for all the harmonic changes.

      Do you mean Chopin or Mendelssohn? The Chopin etude has arpeggios that is the same but also very different!

    Very nIce analysis and the melody is singing beautifully in your playing! 🙂
    PS: Do you skip the bottom E of the first arpeggio in bar 10 intentionally? 🎹🎹

    • @SonataSecrets
      @SonataSecrets  Před rokem +1

      Hah didn't think anyone would notice that! I did it here because it's exactly the same music as bar 2 where there's no bottom E, and that detail does not feel worth the effort of making the legato harder.

    • @w3sp
      @w3sp Před rokem +1

      @@SonataSecrets Hehe, to be honest I only noticed it because while reading along the sheet music I saw there's a bigger "disconnect" here in bar 10 (compared to bar 2) and checked how exactly you played it 🙂I'd say it's a very neat subtle cheat, that's pretty much inaudible. If I were to play the piece some day (I haven't yet) I'd probably also skip that note 🙂
      Keep up the great work!
