Thank you! 🙏 Richard Strauss 4 Letzte Lieder (4 Last Songs), TrV 296 No. 3, Beim Schlafengehen (When Falling Asleep) Musica Sancta Ensemble Conductor: Liran Mendel Violin: Alessandro Clerici The Four Last Songs (German: Vier letzte Lieder), Op. posth., for soprano and orchestra are – with the exception of the song “Malven“ (Mallows), composed later the same year – the final completed works of Richard Strauss. They were composed in 1948 when the composer was 84. The songs are “Frühling“ (Spring), “September“, “Beim Schlafengehen [de]“ (When Falling Asleep) and “Im Abendrot“ (At Sunset). The title Four Last Songs was provided posthumously by Strauss’s friend Ernst Roth. All of the songs but “Frühling“ deal with death and all were written shortly before Strauss himself died. They are suffused with a sense of calm, acceptance, and completeness. #classicalmusic #livemusic #concert All rights reserved
