D'Bäurin hat d'Katz verlor'n

This charming four-part German song paints a vivid domestic scene as a peasant woman laments losing her cat. The playful, slightly frantic text describes her searching the house and calling for her beloved ‘Mutzerl’, before realising it's 'caught' and under arrest. The music likely reflects this lighthearted narrative, offering a delightful diversion for SATB choirs. It's a secular part-song, characteristic of lighter choral works by composers known for their more dramatic output.
