SCHUBERT SONGS sung by HELEN HENSCHEL and LESLIE HOLMES
Heisst mich nicht reden : ' Bid me not answer,' the unhappy Mignon sings, ' I am sworn to keep silence, and only a god hath power to release me from my vow.'
The Trout: With a rippling suggestion of water in the pianoforte part, the singer bemoans the angler's cruelty.
To the Lyre: A German translation from
Anakreon, stately and imposing, in Schubert's rhetorical vein.
The Captive Huntsman, from
Sir Walter Scott 's Lady of the Lake. Hoof-beats are suggested in the accompaniment, and the words tell of the horse standing wearily in its stall, while the unhappy rider muses sadly on the busy world out-of-doors, to which he may go no more.
Faith in Spring : A rhapsody in praise of spring's fair promise.
