Product Description

An exciting arrangement of "Von der Schoenheit" ("On Beauty") from Gustav Mahler's "Das Lied von der Erde" (1909) for wind decet and double bass. The original singer's part is shared between a number of instruments, most notably the two oboes and two bassoons, in a way that retains the lyricism of the piece as well as many of Mahler's orchestral colours.
The original lyrics, clearly captured in the instrumental setting, were chosen by Mahler from Hans Bethge's "Die chinesische Flöte". They express nostalgically the beauty of young maidens and their response to the appearance of dashing young men on horseback!

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
