Title NameDes Knaben Wunderhorn, No. 5: Das Irdische Leben, GMW 26, high voice (E-flat minor, original key)
Marketing CopyGustav Mahler (1860-1911) began composing the songs of DES KNABEN WUNDERHORN (THE BOY'S MAGIC HORN) in 1892, finishing in 1901. Comprised of 15 songs total by the end, each sets folktale texts, as published by Achim von Arnim and Clemens Brentano, to music with piano accompaniment, though some also have orchestral accompaniment. The fifth song, DAS IRDISCHE LEBEN (LIFE ON EARTH), provides a stark contrast to the previous song due to its grim dialogue between a mother and her starving child. This Kalmus edition is presented in the original key of E-flat minor for high voice. Instrumentation: 2.2+EH.2.2: 3.1.0.0: Perc(1): Str ([4.4].[4.4].[3.3].[3.3].[2.2] in set): solo voice. Reprint edition.
