Liszt La Lugubre Gondola II (1882)

This piece is the 2nd gondola. I think the #1 is better known, but I like this one.

Beautiful piece - and playing, as well.  Maybe a hair slower?  It's less austere then the first one, isn't it.  More accessible to the ear, in a way.  Liked it very much.

You played this piece very well capturing the funereal and at times eerie mood.

Interpreting music means exploring the promise of the potential of possibilities.
