    In this 76-minute tutorial, we take an in-depth look at Rachmaninoff’s arrangement of Fritz Kreisler’s Liebesleid (“Love’s Sorrow”). Areas of focus include extensive explanations about fingering suggestions, pedaling suggestions, and shaping ideas. Other points of discussion include how to reduce tension, how to increase speed and agility in the cadenza-like passages, hand redistributions for stretched out passages to make fluid execution of the passage easier, melodic and harmonic interpretation, variety in character, and many more concepts to help you become as efficient as possible in your practice sessions.

    Rachmaninov's arrangements sound so rich, so colourful...they make a melody deeper and brighter...more intellectual...maybe this is because of his beautiful and terrifying wide chords... In music schools in Russia teachers pay much more attetion to expressiveness of the melody, more than to technical skills...they wanted to get this "singing piano "effect

    Thank you to all who have requested this tutorial over the past several years! This has been one of the most requested pieces of all time for a ProPractice tutorial, and I appreciate your patience as I make my way through your list of tutorial requests. I really enjoyed learning this piece, and will be performing it this summer in a concert with some other transcriptions. There are some deceptively difficult elements present in this piece, so be patient as you work through it, applying the fingering, pedaling, and interpretive suggestions we discuss here. I wish you all the best for another great week of practicing!

      I just performed this piece for a competition! The thing with this one is that you can always find something new to add. I really like the voicing that you used for the second time around and it is not that crazy considering that in the original Violin and piano duet by Fritz Kreisler that voicing is usually brought out by the piano.

    I don’t know how to read sheet music to save my life, and I’m kind of a beginner at piano-but this piece is so good that now i’m determined to learn it despite my poor knowledge and experience / practice. I’ve been practicing and actually been trying to understand how to play it and it’s taken me a while, but i’m getting there. The way you interpret the piece has really helped me so far, and in a way it has opened my eyes, so I’m really thankful for this tutorial.

    Hey, small thing I noticed that often gets mixed up about the title: the way you prounounced it means Liebeslied (with "ie" near the end) which translates to love song. Liebesleid (with "ei") which means love's sorrow is prounounced with an "i" (as in "I am")
