Neue Liebeslieder (Op.65) Johannes Brahms
Versicht o Herz, auf Rettung
Finstere Schatten der Nacht
An jeder Hand die Finger
Ihr schwarzen Augen
Wahre, wahre deinen Sohn
Rosen steckt mir an die Mutter
Vom Gebirge Well’ auf Well’
Weiche Gräser im Revier
Nagen am herzen fühl ich
Ich kose süss mit der und der
Alles, alles in den Wind
Schwarzer Wald, dein Schatten
Nein, Geliebter, setze dich
Flammenauge, dunkles Haar

Vocal music is an especially powerful form of communication that can encourage a better understanding of the struggles and achievements that define people and can develop values that sustain people in life’s experiences.  It has a unique power to create community.  Throughout its rich cultural history and directly because of its melding of poetry and music, vocal music has had a place in all celebrations of life - to herald new life, mourn the passing of life, mark holidays, and to explore the human condition.
