Schubert's
Ständchen (Serenade) on
Rellstab's poem “Leise
flehen meine Lieder”
(Gently My Songs Entreat)
not only numbers among
the most well-known art
songs, but is still a
real hit today in Liszt's
arrangement for piano
solo. Initially published
in 1838 in a version
without ossias, the
arrangement began its
triumph on the piano by
1840 at the latest –
probably not least thanks
to Liszt's obliging
addition of easier
variants – as numerous
editions published
throughout Europe during
the composer's lifetime
testify. Liszt himself
liked to play the
Ständchen as an encore
and even wrote small
cadenzas for it, which
are of course taken into
account in the new Henle
Urtext edition. English
and French translations
of the German poem as
well as the placement of
the song text above the
music round off the
edition, for which Evgeny
Kissin provided the
fingerings.
