My new piece „Abend wird es wieder“ („It will be evening again“), opus 29, is ready now!
It is an evening song for children’s choir (SSSAA), it alternatively can be sung by a female choir. The sheet music is free, contact me per short email for it here (same to get a male choir version!). Also watch and listen to the YouTube-Demo with score.
The melody is an old evening song by Johann Christian Heinrich Rinck (1770- 1846), composed in 1837.
This composition is dedicated to Rinck’s 250th birthday
This composition I wrote during the epidemic crisis in 2020. There is a certain parallelism to the time of creation of the lyrics. In 1837 the poet Hoffmann von Fallersleben suffered from a personal crisis, because he not only worked as a poet at that time, but also as professor and librarian in Breslau, Germany. He mentioned „Abend wird es wieder“ in his in his memoirs as a text to console himself.
Ein Abendlied.
Geschrieben in einer Zeit der Krise.
Geschaffen zum Trost.
Zum 250. Geburtstag von Johann Christian Heinrich Rinck.
