Der Frühling wird wach!, Op. 49,1 by Hugo Jüngst — Lyrics
1. Es steigen die Glöckchen
aus schmelzendem Eis
und schütteln die Röckchen,
halb grün und halb weiss.
Es knarren die Eichen,
befreit rauscht der Bach.
Die Kälte will weichen,
der Frühling wird wach!
2. Die Mutter Sibylle
tut's Schiebfenster auf
und schaut durch die Brille
zum Giebel hinauf.

About Der Frühling wird wach!, Op. 49,1
Hugo Jüngst paints a vivid sonic picture of spring's arrival in this lively German partsong for TTBB male voices. The music itself seems to shimmer and stir, echoing the thawing ice and awakening nature described in the text. The parts weave together with a playful energy, depicting the glistening ice bells, the gurgling brook, and even the shy courtship of two cats on the roof. The composer captures the sense of joyful anticipation as winter recedes and the vibrant spirit of spring takes hold. This secular work is full of charm and character, a delightful evocation of the season's renewal.
