Description:
Cäcilie, Op. 27 No. 2, is the second in a set of four songs composed by Richard Strauss in 1894. The words are from a love poem 'Cäcilie' written by Heinrich Hart, a German dramatic critic and journalist who also wrote poetry. Strauss composed the song at Marquartstein the day before his wedding to the soprano Pauline de Ahna. Dutch arranger Jos van de Braak transcribed Cäcilie for Symphonic Band.
