Published by RayThompsonMusic (A0.1479585)."Wiegenlied" ("Lullaby","Berceuse", "Cradle Song"), Op. 49, No. 4, is a song for voice and piano by Johannes Brahms which was first published in 1868.in a set of 5 pieces for voice and piano. It is one of the composer's most famous pieces.
Sometimes known as "Guten Abend, gut' Nacht," (Good evening, good night) which are the first words of the song.
Brahms based the music of his "Wiegenlied" partially on "S'Is Anderscht", a duet by Alexander Baumann published in the 1840s. It was dedicated to Brahms's friend, Bertha Faber, on the occasion of the birth of her second son.
Brahms had been in love with her in her youth and constructed the melody of the "Wiegenlied" to suggest, as a hidden counter-melody, a song she used to sing to him.
Simrock published Brahms's Op. 49 in November 1868.
It was first performed in public on 22 December 1869 in Vienna by Luise Dustmann (singer) and Clara Schumann (piano).
