Composed by David Warin Solomons. 20th Century,Contemporary. Full Performance. Duration 63. David Warin Solomons #3469562. Published by David Warin Solomons (A0.1059564).The original novel by Goethe (Die Leiden des jungen Werthers) was quasi-autobiographical, Charlotte being Charlotte Buff with whom the young poet was passionately in love.
Thankfully Goethe himself did not take the final suicidal act of his protagonist here,
but he regretted having written the piece, which became very popular
and inspired a whole series of desperate romantics.
However, Thackeray's reaction to all this was more of a parody!
This is my setting of W M Thackeray's poem
WERTHER had a love for Charlotte
Such as words could never utter;
Would you know how first he met her?
She was cutting bread and butter.
Charlotte was a married lady,
And a moral man was Werther,
And for all the wealth of Indies
Would do nothing for to hurt her.
So he sigh’d and pin’d and ogled,
And his passion boil’d and bubbled
Till he blew his silly brains out,
And no more was by it troubled.
Charlotte, having seen his body
Borne before her on a shutter,
Like a well-conducted person,
Went on cutting bread and butter."
