Description
A lovely little German folksong about the beauties of nature.
The lower voice has the original tune and the upper voice has a varying descant.
The guitar part is provided in notation form and also chord name form.
There are two versions - one in E major for alto and tenor and one in G major for mezzo-soprano and alto.
The zip file contains four scores - two in E major one with full guitar part and one with just chord names and two in G major with the same setup.
The audio sample illustrates the G major full score version and was sung by composer today - June 12th 2008.
This song uses some verses from a much longer poem by Wilhelm Ganzhorn (around 1851)
The words are:
Im schönsten Wiesengrunde ist meiner Heimat Haus,
da zog ich manche Stunde ins Tal hinaus.
Dich, mein stilles Tal, grüß ich tausend mal!
Da zog ich manche Stunde ins Tal hinaus.
Muss aus dem Tal jetzt scheiden, wo alles Lust und Klang;
das ist mein herbstes Leiden, mein letzter Gang.
Dich, mein stilles Tal, grüß ich tausendmal!
Das ist mein herbstes Leiden, mein letzter Gang.
Sterb ich, in Tales Grunde will ich begraben sein;
singt mir zur letzten Stunde beim Abendschein:
Dich, mein stilles Tal, grüß ich tausendmal!
Singt mir zur letzten Stunde beim Abendschein!
[my translation:]
My home is in the most beautiful meadow-vale
I have lingered many an hour in this vale
I greet thee my peaceful vale a thousand times!
I have lingered many an hour in this vale
Now I have to leave this vale with its delights and sounds
It is the most bitter pain, it will be my last journey.
I greet thee a thousand times my peaceful vale.
It is the most bitter pain, it will be my last journey.
If I die, I want to be buried down in this vale.
Sing for me at my last hour in the evening's light:
I greet thee my peaceful vale a thousand times
Sing for me at my last hour in the evening's light.
