About Die weiber mit dem flöhen
Ivo de Vento's German Lieder, Die weiber mit dem flöhen, presents a humorous, if slightly unflattering, view of women. The text depicts them as being engaged in constant warfare, wishing for their own extermination to secure peace for their spinning and their church attendance. This SAB setting captures the spirit of secular part-music from the Renaissance, offering a light-hearted and characterful exploration of domestic discord.
