Im Märzen der Bauer by Burkhart M. Schürmann — Lyrics
1. Im Märzen der Bauer die Rösslein einspannt,
er setzt seine Felder und Wiesen in Stand.
er pflüget den Boden, er egget und sät
und rührt seine Hände frühmorgens und spät.
2. Den Rechen, den Spaten, den nimmt er zur Hand
und setzet die Wiesen in ebenen Stand.
Auch pfopft er die Bäume mit edlerem Reis
und spart weder Arbeit, noch Mühe und Fleiß.

About Im Märzen der Bauer
This arrangement of Im Märzen der Bauer is ideal for spring concerts, bringing to life the traditional German folk song about a farmer preparing his land for the coming season. The SATB voicing allows for rich harmonies, capturing the spirit of rural labour and optimism. The lyrics depict the farmer diligently working his fields, from ploughing and sowing to tending his trees. The communal effort of the farmhands and maids is also celebrated, their cheerful songs reflecting the joy of nature's renewal and the promise of a bountiful harvest. The arrangement would suit secular programming, offering a familiar and uplifting experience for both choir and audience.
