Lied ohne Worte op. 19 Nr. 4 - Sheet Music for Solo Piano Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy

Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy’s “Song Without Words,” Op. 19b No. 4 (MWV U 73), in A major (Moderato), unfolds a calm, flowing, song-like character in a moderate 4/4 time signature. The right hand carries a sweeping melodic line, supported by a gently moving accompaniment, creating a warm, song-like sound typical of Mendelssohn’s most intimate piano miniatures. The piece is ideal for advanced players who wish to refine a resonant, cantabile style of playing and nuanced phrasing. In just 30 measures, players can develop pedal technique and an expressive touch with great musical depth. It is ideal as a focused study and recital piece.
