Geh aus mein Herz und suche Freud by Joseph Gersbach — Lyrics
About Geh aus mein Herz und suche Freud
This German partsong by Joseph Gersbach is ideal for occasions celebrating the height of summer. The SATB choir brings to life a text that rejoices in the beauty of nature, likening the adornment of gardens and fields to Solomon's splendor. The music paints vivid pictures of the season: the rustling leaves, the vibrant green covering the earth, and the cheerful songs of larks and nightingales filling the air. It also touches on the nurturing activities of birds and the graceful movements of deer and stags. Gersbach’s setting captures the pastoral delight and serene atmosphere of the German countryside in bloom, making it a fitting choice for a celebratory summer concert.
