nach Gedichten von Hermann Hesse-After emigrating from Berlin at the age of 16 the Jewish composer Ursula Mamlok wrote Four German Songs in 1958 while studying at the Manhattan School of Music. Based on texts from Hermann Hesse's collection Vom Baum des Lebens the songs reflect the uprooting from home. Mamlok juxtaposes Hesse's melancholy with an intensive tonal image which proceeds from expressionism with short motifs and tonal transgression yet ventures into new spheres of expression.

Par BRAHMS JOHANNES. The 'Deutsche Volkslieder” WoO by Johannes Brahms were published in altogether seven books in 1894. The first six books each comprised seven songs for voice and piano accompaniment, and Book VII contained the subsequently composed songs nos. 43 to 49 for four-part chorus and piano ad libitum. Brahms had completed his compilation of the books in the winter of 1893/94- however, most of the songs were written earlier. Brahms' primary text source was the two-volume collection of 'Deutsche Volkslieder mit ihren Original-Weisen” (German Folksongs with their Original Melodies) published in 1838/1840 by Anton Wilhelm von Zuccalmaglio./ Répertoire / Voix Haute et Piano
