![Muttertändelei, Op. 43/2 [Composer's Transcription, F] Conductor Score](https://img.musicalinstrumentshoppe.com/product-images/AMU-36-A833601/5d32447743a1afe7.jpeg)
This conductor score presents Richard Strauss’s orchestration of Muttertändelei, Op. 43/2, in the original key of F. Strauss orchestrated the accompaniment in 1911; a version was later transposed to E major, and both keys are available from the publisher.
Strauss (1864–1949) wrote 3 Gesänge älterer deutscher Dichter (3 Songs by Older German Poets) in 1899 for high voice and piano. The songs are “An sie” (“To Them,” text by Friedrich Gottlieb Klopstock), “Muttertändelei” (“Mother Chatter,” text by Gottfried August Bürger), and “Die Ulme zu Hirsau” (“The Elm of Hirsau,” text by Ludwig Uhland).
“Muttertändelei” has become the more popular of the three. Its comic text by Gottfried August Bürger (1747–1794) depicts a deliriously happy new mother who would not give her child away “for all the coins in the world.” The ebullient, perky song features sudden, unexpected harmonic modulations.
Instrumentation: 2.2+EH.2.2: 2.0.0.0: Perc(2): Str (9-8-7-6-0 in set; no Bass): Solo High Voice.
