Franz Schubert's setting of a poem by Franz von Schober (also including my English singing translation) arranged for alto or baritone and classical guitar. Versions for bassoon, flute or clarinet and guitar are also available. The sound sample is an electronic preview. ===== Du holde Kunst, in wie viel grauen Stunden, Wo mich des Lebens wilder Kreis umstrickt, Hast du mein Herz zu warmer Lieb' entzunden, Hast mich in eine beßre Welt entrückt, In eine beßre Welt entrückt! Oft hat ein Seufzer deiner Harf' entflossen, Ein süßer, heiliger Akkord von dir Den Himmel beßrer Zeiten mir erschlossen, Du holde Kunst, ich danke dir dafür! Du holde Kunst, ich danke dir! ===== Belovèd art, in dark times when I wander When all life's wild confusion gathers round You light my heart with love and warmth so tender And rouse me with your wondrous heav'nly sound And rouse me with your heav'nly sound And from your harp a chord of sweetness leads me A holy sigh from greatest heaven above and with the hope of better times feeds me Belovèd art, 'tis you, 'tis you I love Belovèd art, 'tis you I love (singing translation by David Warin Solomons (c) 2015).
