A sequence for clarinet and guitar based on three Viennese songs from the 1840s and 1850s
interspersed with three original yodels.


The melodies of the old songs, originally taken from the book Wiener Lieder und Tänze and then expanded, are:
1. O Theures Erbsien - a moralistic song about avoiding crime and thus prison (it appears that the old Viennese prison was called Erbsien after the principal diet of the prisoners there: Erbsen = peas)

2. Servicerl 
A celebration of drinking and courting.

3. Mein Nachbarin und I 
A song about getting on well with the widow next door....

The original yodels were initially inspired by some of the sections marked Jodel in the same book.


It is performed here by
Balázs Rumy clarinet
András Csáki guitar.
