Description
Ludwig Tieck's romantic fairy story of the joy and sorrow of the 'beautiful Magelone' is dressed up by Heribert Breuer: 'From the very beginning I wanted to devise a complete concert evening in which not only Ludwig Tieck's story is recited but also two piano works from Brahms' last creative period are included. – Having been familiar with this song cycle by playing and singing it since my early youth, I wanted to make the polyphonic structures of Brahms' piano setting more transparent and even more colourful with my chamber music version than is possible on a piano. To ensure a practical instrumentation, I have chosen two contrasting quintets: a woodwind quintet and a string quartet cum double-bass.'
Content
Vorspiel (Ballade, op. 118/3)
Keinen hat es noch gereut
Traun! Bogen und Pfeil
Sind es Schmerzen, sind es Freuden
Liebe kam aus fernen Landen
So willst du des Armen
Wie soll ich die Freude
War es dir, dem diese Lippen bebten
Wir müssen und trennen
Zwischenspiel (Itermezzo, op. 117/1)
Ruhe, Süßliebchen
Verzweiflung (So tönet denn)
Wie schnell verschwindet so Licht
Muss es eine Trennung geben
Sulima (Geliebter, wo zaudert)
Wie froh und frisch mein Sinn sich hebt
Treue Liebe dauert lange
