Denk Es, O Seele

From Cygnus' New Year Happening-- Frank Brickle's Denk Es, O Seele, a setting of the famous poem by Eduard Mörike, the poem that ends Mörike's novella, Mozart's Jouney to Prague. Eileen Clark is the soprano, with Oren Fader, guitar and William Anderson, mandolin. Text: A little fir-tree flourishes, who knows where, in the wood; A rosebush, who can tell in what garden? They are selected already, Consider, o soul, to take root and grow on your grave. Two young black horses graze on the pasture, they return back to town with lively leaps. They will go step by step with your corpse; perhaps, perhaps even before on their hooves the shoe gets loose, and I can see it sparkle.
