- Title:
- Hugo Wolf: ‘Gesang Weylas’ (words Eduard Mörike), song for voice and piano
- Scope & Content:
-
Autograph. Written in ink on systems of three staves, on a single leaf; the single system on the verso contains the concluding four bars. Headed ‘Gesang Weyla’s’. Without time signature, tempo direction ‘Langsam u[nd]. feierlich.’; tempo direction and dynamic markings and phrasing are all added in blue crayon by the composer. The number ‘26225’ in blue crayon in an unidentified hand added in upper left margin. Engraver’s markings beneath the systems in red crayon agree with the line-endings and paging in the first published edition. The composer’s name has been added in pencil at top right of the recto.
The song was composed at Unterach am Attersee, 9 Oct. 1888 (Jancik). This manuscript has been used as the Stichvorlage. As there are no differences in music text or layout in this song between the 1889 editions cited above, it would seem that this manuscript was the source for the first publication. No plate numbers appear on either edition.
