Selection from 'Trovatore'

These three pieces were originally written as part of a Suite of Songs for Chorus and Orchestra, entitled From the Bavarian Highlands, each of which depicts in words and tones some picturesque feature of peasant life in this beautiful region. The music is so melodious that it bears presentation in any form, without a word being sung.
