Cradle Song was first written in 1868, and published in German as Wiegenlied (Op. 49, No. 4). It has since become commonly known as Brahms' Lullaby.
The lyrics have been translatedintoEnglish by Florence Hoare, and the music arranged for Male Voice Chorus (TTBB) by Percy E. Fletcher. A Piano reduction is provided for rehearsal purposes.
The German composer and pianistJohannesBrahms (1833-1897) spent most of his working life in Vienna, where his influence and stature were unmatched during his lifetime. He was a noted perfectionist, and often destroyed works he thought unworthy ofpublication.
