Product Description

Johannes Brahms' Minnelied (Love Song) from Fünf Lieder (Five Lieder), Op. 71, No. 5. Originally for voice and piano, you can feature a soprano vocalist with your band on this classical vocal standard, with the accompaniment adapted for concert band by Jeremy S. Martin. This is in Brahms' "high voice" key of D-major.

Deceptively simple and exquisite, Minnelied features text by Ludwig Heinrich Christoph Hölty, a poet who always brought out eloquent utterances from the composer. It is a straightforward, untroubled love song whose beauty is effortless. The postlude music by Brahms is especially sophisticated and effective.
