Product Description

This famous song by the master songsmith, Schubert, tells of young lad being carried home by his father, but all the while, being haunted by the goblin king, (Der Erlkonig). When the father returns home, the boy is dead in his arms. In the song, the singer plays the part of the boy, the father, the Erlking and the narrator, which makes it a challenge for the singer. Here it has been arranged as a violin trio, where all the parts have an equal importance.
