Müde sank der Tag Nachtlied. Based on the Adagio of the "Sonata Pathétique" (arr. L. Böhme) by Ludwig van Beethoven Divisi - Sheet Music
By Ludwig van BeethovenLudwig van Beethoven was already so revered during his lifetime that his contemporaries arranged his music – mostly the well-known instrumental works – for choir. Such choral settings were even performed at Beethoven’s funeral. Later generations of composers have engaged creatively with his œuvre in a similar way. The renowned arranger Ludwig Böhme, co-founder of the Calmus Ensemble and artistic director of the Windsbach Boys' Choir, is continuing this tradition by transforming the slow movement of the piano sonata “Pathétique” into a choral piece. The text is Francisca Stoecklin’s poem “Nachtlied” (1925), which interweaves the nocturnal peace of the countryside with subtle references to the Christmas story. A surprising addition to the festive repertoire!
