Hi! I have a strange question... do you know of the Swan Turner folk song? Or maybe it's a folktale - I don't know. Is there somewhere I could read a plot synopsis? Or listen to a recording of the original tune? My friend and I have searched off and on for years, but neither of us can search in German very well. Neither of us have found anything so far. We both play the viola. Paul Hindemith wrote a famous viola concerto called Der Schwanendreher and everyone always says that a folk song inspired the theme of the third movement. Knowing that folk song/folktale would help make sense of the piece enormously. My friend and I have been wondering about this for years... maybe it's too far to ask you, but I thought I'd try. If it wouldn't be too much bother, could you give me a link to the original song or tale? If I only knew where to find the information, I could translate it. Again, I don't want to bother you, but this would really help us out. Thank you so much :)
@@Thuiringer haha yeah I like Tamestit’s recording. Not quite what I meant though - the original folk tune, not Hindemith’s Concerto. Thank you though 😊
