Summary/Abstract: The study analyzes the cycle of lieder Celan Songs by Cornel Țăranu, presenting both aspects related to their vast cultural horizon and elements of musical analysis resulting in the intimate symbiosis of musical language and the metaphorical plan of the source of inspiration. The choice of certain translations of the lieder reveals a new dimension of Celan's poetry in the creation of Cornel Țăranu, through the collections and translations of Ion Caraion, whose volume The Table of Silence... was an unparalleled anthology of texts dedicated to sculptor Constantin Brâncuși. The analysis has, finally, the role of capturing the “subcutaneous” relationships of the poetry of Paul Celan with the music of Cornel Țăranu and the sculpture of Constantin Brâncuși.
