„Vierfach Kleeblatt, selt'ner Fund!
Glückspfand! Holde Feengabe!
Vielgesegnet sei der Grund,

About Auf dem Spaziergang
On a pleasant stroll through the countryside, the choir finds a four-leaf clover, a symbol of good fortune. A duet unfolds between a woman who discovers this rare find and a man who, perhaps with a playful flirtation, compares it to a rose from her garden. This German secular canon for two voices (ST) by Hugo Distler captures the lighthearted sentiment of a spring or summer day, with the canon technique adding an engaging layer of musical conversation to the lyrical exchange about luck and love.
