[Classic] Introducing famous songs about love

In classical music, which mostly consists of pieces without lyrics, there are actually many works themed around love.

Even with pieces you already know, understanding the composer’s intentions and background can change the way you hear them dramatically—so take this opportunity to explore classical love songs.

These works, each expressing different forms of love, may convey something meaningful to us living today, transcending time.

Songs about love with lyrics are wonderful, of course, but I hope this also conveys the appeal of classical music that expresses itself through melody and resonance alone.
