Der Tambour of the Mörike Lieder | Hugo Wolf
|
Der Tambour
Wenn meine Mutter hexen könnt’, Da müsst’ sie mit dem Regiment Nach Frankreich, überall mit hin, Und wär’ die Marketenderin. Im Lager wohl um Mitternacht, Wenn Niemand auf ist als die Wacht, Und alles schnarchet, Ross und Mann, Vor meiner Trommel säss’ ich dann: Die Trommel müsst’ eine Schüssel sein; Ein warmes Sauerkraut darein; Die Schlegel, Messer und Gabel, Eine lange Wurst mein Sabel, Mein Tschako wär’ ein Humpen gut, Den füll’ ich mit Burgunderblut. Und weil es mir an Lichte fehlt, Da scheint der Mond in mein Gezelt: Scheint er auch auf franzö’sch herein, Mir fällt doch meine Liebste ein: Ach weh! Jetzt hat der Spass ein End! —Wenn nur meine Mutter hexen könnt’! |
The Drummer-boy
If my mother could work magic She’d have to go with the regiment To France and everywhere, And be the vivandière. In camp, at midnight, When no one’s up save the guard, And everybody – man and horse - is snoring, Then I’d sit by my drum: My drum would be a bowl, With warm sauerkraut in it, The sticks would be a knife and fork, My sabre – a long sausage; My shako would be a tankard Filled with red Burgundy. And because I lack light, The moon shines into my tent; And though it shines in French, It still reminds me of my beloved: Oh dear! There’s an end to my fun! – If only my mother could work magic! |
Die Beiden Grenadiere | Robert Schumann
|
Die beiden Grenadiere
Nach Frankreich zogen zwei Grenadier’, Die waren in Russland gefangen. Und als sie kamen ins deutsche Quartier, Sie liessen die Köpfe hangen. Da hörten sie beide die traurige Mär: Dass Frankreich verloren gegangen, Besiegt und geschlagen das tapfere Heer-- Und der Kaiser, der Kaiser gefangen. Da weinten zusammen die Grenadier’ Wohl ob der kläglichen Kunde. Der eine sprach: „Wie weh wird mir, Wie brennt meine alte Wunde!“ Der andre sprach: „Das Lied ist aus, Auch ich möcht mit dir sterben, Doch hab’ ich Weib und Kind zu Haus, Die ohne mich verderben.“ „Was schert mich Weib, was schert mich Kind, Ich trage weit bess’res Verlangen; Lass sie betteln gehn, wenn sie hungrig sind-- Mein Kaiser, mein Kaiser gefangen! „Gewähr mir, Bruder, eine Bitt’: Wenn ich jetzt sterben werde, So nimm meine Leiche nach Frankreich mit, Begrab mich in Frankreichs Erde. „Das Ehrenkreuz am roten Band Sollst du aufs Herz mir legen; Die Flinte gib mir in die Hand, Und gürt mir um den Degen. „So will ich liegen und horchen still, Wie eine Schildwach, im Grabe, Bis einst ich höre Kanonengebrüll Und wiehernder Rosse Getrabe. „Dann reitet mein Kaiser wohl über mein Grab, Viel Schwerter klirren und blitzen; Dann steig ich gewaffnet hervor aus dem Grab-- Den Kaiser, den Kaiser zu schützen!“ |
The two Grenadiers
Two grenadiers were marching back to France They had been held captive in Russia, And when they reached German lands They hung their heads in shame. For here they learnt the sorry tale That France had been conquered in war, Her valiant army beaten and shattered, And the Emperor, the Emperor captured. The grenadiers then wept together, As they heard of these sad tidings. The first said: ‘Ah, the agony; How my old wound is burning!’ The second said: ‘This is the end; If only we could die together. But I’ve a wife and child at home, And they would perish without me.’ ‘To hell with wife, to hell with child, My aims are for far higher things; Let them beg, if they’ve nothing to eat-- My Emperor, my Emperor captured! ‘Grant me, brother, one request, If I am now to die. Take my corpse with you to France; Bury me in French soil. ‘You shall lay upon my heart The Cross of Valour with its red ribbon; And place my musket in my hand And gird my sword about me. ‘So I shall lie and listen Like a silent sentry in my grave, Until I hear the cannons’ roar And the horses gallop and neigh. ‘That will be my Emperor riding by my grave; Swords will be clashing and flashing; And armed, I’ll rise up from the grave To defend the Emperor, my Emperor!’ |
Der Doppelgänger from Schwanegesang | Franz Schubert
|
Der Doppelgänger
Still ist die Nacht, es ruhen die Gassen, In diesem Hause wohnte mein Schatz; Sie hat schon längst die Stadt verlassen, Doch steht noch das Haus auf demselben Platz. Da steht auch ein Mensch und starrt in die Höhe, Und ringt die Hände, vor Schmerzens Gewalt; Mir graust es, wenn ich sein Antlitz sehe – Der Mond zeigt mir meine eigne Gestalt. Du Doppelgänger! du bleicher Geselle! Was äffst du nach mein Liebesleid, Das mich gequält auf dieser Stelle, So manche Nacht, in alter Zeit? |
The wraith
The night is still, the streets are at rest; in this house lived my sweetheart. She has long since left the town, but the house still stands on the selfsame spot. A man stands there too, staring up, and wringing his hands in anguish; I shudder when I see his face – the moon shows me my own form! You wraith, pallid companion, why do you ape the pain of my love which tormented me on this very spot, so many a night, in days long past? |
Der Kuß | Ludwig van Beethoven
|
Der Kuß
Ich war bei Chloen ganz allein, Und küssen wollt' ich sie. Jedoch sie sprach, sie würde schrein, Es sei vergebne Müh! Ich wagt' es doch und küßte sie, Trotz ihrer Gegenwehr. Und schrie sie nicht? Jawohl, sie schrie, Doch lange hinterher. |
The kiss
I was with Chloe all alone, And wished to kiss her: But she said she would scream, That it would be in vain. But I dared to and kissed her, Despite her resistance. And did she scream? Oh yes, she screamed. But not until long after. |
Ich ging mit Lust from Aus der Knaben Wunderhorn | Gustav Mahler
|
Ich ging mit Lust durch einen grünen Wald
Ich ging mit Lust durch einen grünen Wald, Ich hört die Vöglein singen; Sie sangen so jung, sie sangen so alt, Die kleinen Waldvögelein im grünen Wald! Wie gern hört ich sie singen! Nun sing, nun sing, Frau Nachtigall! Sing du's bei meinem Feinsliebchen: 'Komm schier, komm schier, wenn's finster ist, Wenn niemand auf der Gasse ist, Dann komm zu mir, dann komm zu mir! Herein will ich dich lassen, ja lassen!' Der Tag verging, die Nacht brach an, Er kam zu Feinsliebchen gegangen. Er klopft so leis' wohl an den Ring, "Ei, schläfst du oder wachst, mein Kind? Ich hab so lang gestanden!" Es schaut der Mond durchs Fensterlein Zum holden, süßen Lieben, Die Nachtigall sang die ganze Nacht. Du schlafselig Mägdelein, nimm dich in Acht! Wo ist dein Herzliebster geblieben? |
I walked joyfully through a green wood
I walked joyfully through a green wood, I heard the little birds sing. They sang so young, they sang so old, Those woodland birds in the green wood! How gladly I heard them sing, yes sing! Please sing, please sing, Mrs Nightingale! Sing this at my beloved's house: 'Come quick, come quick, when darkness falls, When not a soul is in the street, Then come to me, then come to me! And I will let you in, yes in!' The day departed, night fell, He went to his beloved; He tapped so softly with the knocker, 'Are you asleep or awake, my child? I've been standing here so long!' The moon looks through the window, Saw the charming, sweet caresses, The nightingale sang all night long. Sleepy little maid, take care! Where is your sweetheart now? |
Heimliche Aufforderung | Richard Strauss
|
Heimliche Aufforderung
Auf, hebe die funkelnde Schale empor zum Mund, Und trinke beim Freudenmahle dein Herz gesund. Und wenn du sie hebst, so winke mir heimlich zu, Dann lächle ich, und dann trinke ich still wie du ... Und still gleich mir betrachte um uns das Heer Der trunknen Schwätzer—verachte sie nicht zu sehr. Nein, hebe die blinkende Schale, gefüllt mit Wein, Und laß beim lärmenden Mahle sie glücklich sein. Doch hast du das Mahl genossen, den Durst gestillt, Dann verlasse der lauten Genossen festfreudiges Bild, Und wandle hinaus in den Garten zum Rosenstrauch,-- Dort will ich dich dann erwarten nach altem Brauch, Und will an die Brust dir sinken eh’ du’s gehofft, Und deine Küsse trinken, wie ehmals oft, Und flechten in deine Haare der Rose Pracht-- O komm, du wunderbare, ersehnte Nacht! |
Secret invitation
Come, raise to your lips the sparkling goblet, And drink at this joyful feast your heart to health. And when you raise it, give me a secret sign, Then I shall smile, and drink as quietly as you ... And quietly like me, look around at the hordes Of drunken gossips—do not despise them too much. No, raise the glittering goblet, filled with wine, And let them be happy at the noisy feast. But once you have savoured the meal, quenched your thirst, Leave the loud company of happy revellers, And come out into the garden to the rose-bush,-- There I shall wait for you as I’ve always done. And I shall sink on your breast, before you could hope, And drink your kisses, as often before, And twine in your hair the glorious rose-- Ah! come, O wondrous, longed-for night! |

Coffs Harbour Regional Conservatorium
Saturday, 4th April | 3PM TAS Hoskins Centre, The Armidale School Sunday, 5th April | 7PM Jeremy will play the role of Jesus. Performed in English. About St. John Passion (from ClassicFM.com): Jesus rises from the dead on Easter Sunday morning, but before this, there's the gruelling tale of his Passion and death on the cross. Bach sets Chapters 26-27 of Mathew's account, and 18-19 of John's. If it's possible to distill both accounts down, Jesus is taken to the Place of a Skull, and crucified with two thieves on the charge of claiming to be the King of the Jews. Soldiers divide his clothes into lots before he dies. In Matthew's account, after being mocked by a jeering crowd, Jesus dies with the desolate cry of "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?", but John's account tells of Jesus' resolute fulfilment of an Old Testament prophecy: "It is finished." EXCERPT: 'Es is vollbracht' Arie Sopran |

The Cooperative is a new Sydney based arts company, which combines dual passions for opera and for social justice. Our auditions are open to all. Performances aim to make opera accessible for everyone, and so entry is on a pay-as-you-feel scale. We believe that opera should benefit the world around us, and so will partner with charity/ies for each of our performance.

St. Stephens Uniting Church, Macquarie St, Sydney.
Friday 28th, Saturday 29th February, 2020 | 7PM Jeremy will play the role of the Secret Police Agent. About The Consul: “To this we’ve come, that men withhold the world from men ... that man be born a stranger upon God’s earth, that he be chosen without a chance for choice, that he be hunted without a hope of refuge ...” Nearly seventy years after its premiere, and halfway across the world, these lines from Menotti’s The Consul still ring uncomfortably and unhappily true. With no alternative and time running out, a family seeks refuge from another country to no avail. Desperate people seek help and salvation from emotionless and immovable authorities, with devastating consequences. SUPPORT this project here. FOLLOW the project here. |

Dido and Aeneas are in love. Witches plot Dido’s destruction and the Sorceress conjures a storm, to break out when the royal couple are hunting, and the impersonation of Mercury by one of her coven. The storm duly breaks and the courtiers hasten back to town, while the false Mercury tells Aeneas he must leave Dido and sail for Italy. Aeneas and his sailors prepare to leave, to the delight of the witches. Aeneas parts from Dido, who kills herself once he has gone, her death lamented by mourning cupids. |
