Lyricism is a term used to describe a piece of art considered to have deep emotions.[1] Its origin is found in the word lyric, derived via Latin lyricus from the Greek λυρικός (lurikós),[2] the adjectival form of lyre.[3] As a musical term, it is often employed to relate to the capability of a lyricist.

Description
Lyricism is primarily used to give a description of art that is thought to have a particularly expressive quality.[4] It is often used in conjunction with art composed of sound alone, but can apply to all forms of art, including paintings, performances,[5] poetries, architectures,[6] or films.[7]
Uses
The following are examples of lyricism:
- Architecture: The Nasir-ol-Molk Mosque may be seen as an example, as well as the Taj Mahal or the Sistine Chapel. Modern examples would be some of the later works of Le Corbusier[6] and Zaha Hadid.[8]
- Dance: Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake or The Sleeping Beauty exhibit classic lyricism.
- Film: Lost, Lost, Lost (1976) has been described as an example of the mid-20th century lyricism movement in film, as well as The Art of Vision (1965) and Fireworks (1947).[9]
- Music: In jazz, Charlie Parker is renowned for his lyricism.[10] Nearly all of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's work has been revered for its lyricism.[11][12][13]
- Poetry: Maya Angelou's poetry has intrinsic lyricism.[14]
