- Title:
- Hugo Wolf: ‘Ernst ist die Frühling’ (words Heinrich Heine), song for voice and piano; 13, 16 Oct. 1878
- Scope & Content:
-
Autograph. Written in ink on systems of three staves, on a single leaf; the single system on the verso contains the concluding five bars. Headed ‘Neue Gedichte / aus dem Liederstrauss v. H. Heine’, numbered ‘X’ beneath the title, signed at top right, and dated ‘Wien am 13, 16 Octob. 1878’ at top left (all on recto). Tempo direction ‘Sehr ruhig’, the vocal part marked ‘leise’.
The published score gives the dates of composition as 16 and 17 Oct. 1878. For most of the song the variants between this manuscript and the published score are minimal, but the piano accompaniment to the phrase ‘es bebt geheime Wehmut im Nachtigallenlaut’ is substantially different.
