descripção
These three Dutch songs for voice (C 'g') and piano are written on lyrics by A.K. Bouwman (Born 1964; See for his comment below*). The second song "Autumn" is a translation of a poem by Shelley. It's very poetic and shows us in the piano accompaniment the raindrops and death bells. (Put on music already in April 1903 for baritone and piano by the English composer Frank Bridge). Especially in the first song "Can I take you" is the parallel with the ongoing vocal melody in the piano. In the Richard Strauss-like third song is a children's song intertwined. Difficulty of No 1 & 2 is advanced. No 1 is difficult for the piano.
