Description:
Es tönen die Lieder (MB4384), is one of four new German folk song arrangements for mixed voices by leading Latvian composer, Laura Jēkabsone. Also available: Kein schöner Land (MB4383); Im schönsten Wiesengrunde (MB4385); Widele wedele (MB4386). "This folk song, also a canon, appealed to me for its lightness and simplicity. That may be why I composed the arrangement in a gentle and lyrical mood, which may allow listeners to view this well-known melody in a slightly different light. Latvian Voices performs this piece in their concerts, including it in the program alongside the Lithuanian folk song "Titity tatatoj," which tells a thematically similar story of herding and horn-blowing, yet has a completely different musical character. I am deeply moved by the thematic parallels between cultures and by the vivid display of such beautifully diverse musical colours".
