Description:
Ludwig van Beethoven dedicated his Elegischer Gesang ("Sanft wie du lebtest") to the memory of Eleonore Pasqualati, the wife of his long-time friend and patron Johann Baptist Freiherr von Pasqualati zu Osterberg, who died young. The short choral piece, whose mood oscillates between quiet pain and drama, with discreet string accompaniment, first appeared in print in 1826. In addition to the vocal and string parts, the set of parts included a piano part which can be used instead of the strings. This piano part is also the basis for the Carus piano reduction. A performance with just choir and piano is therefore perfectly possible - a version which, although not "original", was widespread from the beginning.
