Lyrics: Joseph von Eichendorff
Cologne Male Voice Choir (KMGV)
Bergische Symphoniker
Conductor: Bernhard Steiner
Live at Kölner Philharmonie 06/26/2022
In 2022 the Cologne Male Voice Choir performed a concert featuring works created by Franz Schubert, Ludwig van Beethoven, Hector Berlioz, Jacques Offenbach and other composers, celebrating Franz Schubert's 225th birthday.
Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy's "Der Jäger Abschied" ("Hunters' Farewell") conjures the beauty of German forests. Its themes of nature and yearning are typical for early Romaticism, and it is a signature song of many German male voice choruses.
