SCHUBERT'S WINTERREISE
Sung by PARRY JONES (Tenor)
DER LINDENBAUM (The Linden Tree).
The poet sadly muses on the old tree, in whose bark he used to carve words of love.
Wasserfluth (The Torrent). He asks the melted snow where it is going. His tears, mingling with the stream, shall flow to the town where dwells his lost love.
Auf dem Flusse (On the River). He contrasts the river, in its pride as a torrent, with its frozen stillneFB now.
