I found this term in a piece of music I was messing around with this afternoon and could not find the meaning in any of the resources I have. Can anyone tell me what this means?

Flattering, i.e. play in a coaxing, intimate
manner. So, too, lusinghevole,
lusinghevolmente, lusinghiero, lusingante.

The Oxford Dictionary of Music, © Oxford University
Press 1994

The literal translation of the root word "Lusinga" ( Italian) = enticement, flattery.

Was this the Weber 1? I think coaxing is definitely more appropriate than just soothing, if it is the passage I'm thinking of. The word I think of in this part on the second page is "flirtatious". Maybe not very accurate, but it really works in this context, I think.

I think it may be the same one. I have "Grand Duo Concertant" for Clarinet and Piano by Carl Maria von Weber, Op. 48. "Lusingando" appears twice in the piece.
