About Havde jeg, o havde jeg en Dattersøn, o ja!

Wilhelm Stenhammar's delightful Danish song imagines a yearning for family and fortune. The text expresses a whimsical desire for a grandson, money, and a home, with a cheerful refrain. Set for SATB choir, this secular lied offers a charming opportunity for choirs to explore expressive Danish text. The playful "Tra la la" interludes add a lighthearted touch, making it suitable for lighter concert programs or festive occasions. Its straightforward vocal writing and engaging melody provide an accessible yet rewarding experience for both singers and audience, capturing a simple, heartfelt wish with infectious good humor.
