Gesang im Grünen by Joseph Hanisch — Lyrics
Im Wald, im hellen Sonnenschein,
wenn alle Knospen springen,
da mag ich gerne mittendrein
eins singen, eins singen.
Wie mir zu Mut in Leid und Lust,
im Wachen und im Träumen,
das stimm ich an aus voller Brust
den Bäumen, den Bäumen.
Und sie verstehen mich gar fein,
die Blätter alle lauschen

About Gesang im Grünen
Joseph Hanisch’s Gesang im Grünen is a charming secular German partsong for TTBB male voices. The text describes the joy of singing in nature, surrounded by the sounds of the forest and the birds. The composer captures this feeling of vibrant outdoor life, where the singer feels understood by the trees and leaves. The music reflects the delight of the natural world, with birdsong adding to the atmosphere. It’s a piece that evokes a sense of freedom and exhilaration, celebrating the simple pleasure of song amidst the greenery. The text speaks of an inner feeling finding its outward expression, a mood of happiness that can be shared with the natural world.
