An die Türen (I will creep up to the doors) for low voice and guitar by Franz Schubert Small Ensemble - Digital Sheet Music

Schubert's setting of words from Goethe's "Wilhelm Meister" (with my singing translation in English) transposed to the key of E minor for low voice and guitar. In some places the guitar part is simplified in comparison to the original piano part in order to improve the flowing quality and to make it possible for one person to accompany herself/himself on the guitar. A version for low voice and piano also in E minor, is also available The sound sample is an electronic preview. The three individual songs ("Wer sich der Einsamkeit ergibt", "Wer nie sein Brot mit Tränen ass", "An die Türen") and also all three together (under the title "Gesänge des Harfners (songs of the harpist)" ) are available on this site The pdf file contains the score and also the separate parts. An die Türen An die Türen will ich schleichen, Still und sittsam will ich steh'n; Fromme Hand wird Nahrung reichen, Und ich werde weitergehn. Jeder wird sich glücklich scheinen, Wenn mein Bild vor ihm erscheint; Eine Träne wird er weinen, Und ich weiß nicht, was er weint. I will creep up to the doors and stand there quiet and polite goodly hands will give me food and grateful I will leave their sight Every person will seem happy When they see me at their door They will shed a tear which I will never know the reason for.
