Liszt: Vallée d'Obermann (Jonas Šopa)

Jonas Šopa performs Vallée d'Obermann from the Années de pèlerinage (Book I) by Franz Liszt. Recorded live during the Klaipėda Piano Masters Laureates Tour recital at the Biržai Castle, November 2019. Inspired by Étienne Pivert de Senancour's novel of the same title, set in Switzerland, with a hero overwhelmed and confused by nature, suffering from ennui and longing, finally concluding that only our feelings are true. The captions include one from Byron's succeeding canto 97, ("Could I embody and unbosom now That which is most within me,--could I wreak My thoughts upon expression, and thus throw Soul--heart--mind--passions--feelings--strong or weak-- All that I would have sought, and all I seek, Bear, know, feel--and yet breathe--into one word, And that one word were Lightning, I would speak; But as it is, I live and die unheard, With a most voiceless thought, sheathing it as a sword") and two from Senancour's Obermann, which include the crucial questions, “What do I want? Who am I? What do I ask of nature?" Jonas Šopa (1999) is a Lithuanian pianist, a prizewinner of several piano competitions internationally.
