Serenade by Franz Schubert (1797-1828)
This Standchen or “Serenade” is a Lied that was published a few months after Schubert’s death. It was one of the last things he ever wrote. It’s a short story of a person wishing to be loved by another. You can feel two different things: melancholy yearning and hope. They shift back and forth, back and forth. |
