Un Sospiro



Over the weekend I was going through my pile of music in an attempt to get organized, when I came across this Liszt piece, "Un Sospiro." I started learning this piece of music a few years ago for a piano recital and had it about 65% memorized when my life got a little out of control and I quit piano lessons. I'm kind of sad about that. Nevertheless, this piece moves me almost to tears. Close your eyes and listen. It's dreamy.

Who says you need piano lessons to finish memorizing this? I expect a performance next time I'm at your house.

I suppose I don't need piano lessons to finish this off, but it sure helps to have someone to answer to to stay on track and get it right. Plus, practicing with a 2 year old on my lap has proven to be a bit of a challenge...

I love it! I think I might have to find the sheet music so I can try it out. I have to admit I probably only end up playing the piano once a month now that I have kiddos. Life just gets so busy, but this makes me want to try to see what I can still play. Thanks for sharing!
