About Ich kose süß mit der und der, Op. 65, No. 10|{{NoCo|Neue Liebeslieder Walzer, Op. 65
This solo tenor Lied by Johannes Brahms is the tenth of his Neue Liebeslieder Walzer, Op. 65. The music opens with a gently lilting character, its accompaniment suggesting the waltz rhythm that permeates the set. The German text, by Georg Friedrich Daumer, is a secular poem expressing tender, intimate affection, though tinged with a melancholic longing. The singer is caught between sweet indulgence and a wistful thought that eternally returns to 'Nonna'. Brahms's setting captures this delicate balance of joy and pensive remembrance, characteristic of his mature Lieder style. It is a charming and evocative miniature.
