About Alles hat seine Zeit
Joseph Haydn's Alles hat seine Zeit is a charming secular four-part song for SATB choir. The music bubbles with an infectious joy, its texture characterized by imitative entries and lively rhythmic interplay between the voices. The German text, reflecting the spirit of its time, celebrates the pleasures of life, urging listeners to seize the moment for love, feasting, and revelry. Haydn crafts a musical setting that is both sophisticated and accessible, capturing the text's exuberant sentiment with delightful grace and wit. It is a perfect example of the German Lied tradition and a rewarding choice for choirs seeking engaging and characterful part-songs.
