New Feature Alert


It’s now easier than ever to see both the author's and the composer's versions of a text!

After more than a year in development, I'm thrilled to announce that we've finally implemented the ability to view "sung texts" with all the modifications by a given composer already applied. Over 10,000 pages will benefit from this improvement. It should especially benefit those of you who need accurate texts for concert programs and CD booklets.

I'm excited to share this new feature with all of you and hope that it enhances your experience on the LiederNet Archive. Take some time to explore and enjoy! — Emily

Sohn des Vaters,
aber leiden, leiden müssen deine Brüder,
eh sie droben an dem Throne,
eh mit dir sie Erben sind.
 
Nur ein sanftes Joch, leichte Lasten,
o göttlicher Mittler,
o göttlicher Vollender,
sind deinen Treuen alle Leiden dieser Welt.

Adapted from stanzas 10-11.

Notes for Schubert's setting: stanza 1, line 1, word 5 ("leichte") becomes "nur leichte" in the repetition; and in stanza 2, line 4, word 4 ("alle") becomes "die" in the repetition
