Ouverture and recitative
 (Sung text for setting by G. Telemann)
 Matches base text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ihr Jungen, sperrt die Ohren auf!
lch will mein Amt verwalten
und Singestunde mit euch halten,
Singt alle nach, gebt Achtung drauf:
CDEFGAHC.

(children: C D E F G A H C)

Das ist das ganze Fundament,
auf deutsch, der ganze Grund.
Manch kahler Lumpenhund.
der dieses alles nicht versteht, spricht ja:
ut re mi la sol la sei tota musica!
Allein es ist erlogen und erstunken!
Obgleich die dumme Welt
oft Wasser hat getrunken,
so stimmt mir doch ein jeder bei,
das Doppelbier viel besser sei.

Composition:

    Set to music by Georg Philipp Telemann (1681 - 1767), "Ouverture and recitative", from Der Schulmeister, no. 1
