In's stille Land by Emil Genetz — Lyrics
Ins stille Land!
Wer leitet uns hinüber?
Schon wölkt sich uns der Abendhimmel trüber,
und immer trümmervoller wird der Strand:
Wer leitet uns mit sanfter Hand?

About In's stille Land
Emil Genetz's In's stille Land is a secular SATB part-song. Its German text contemplates the journey to a quiet land, questioning who will lead us across as the evening sky darkens and the shore becomes increasingly troubled. The music likely reflects the poignant and searching mood of these lyrics, creating an evocative atmosphere for the choir. This piece offers a chance to explore themes of guidance and transition through rich choral harmonies. It is a fitting selection for choirs seeking expressive and thoughtful repertoire that engages with profound human questions through its musical and textual setting.
