Five of the popular songs for choir of Fanny Hensel received a specific romantic character by accompaniment of the harp.
The composer’s music perfectly mirrors the delicate tone of poems by Nikolaus Lenau and Joseph von Eichendorff. The stand-alone harp accompaniment of the Hensel songs should help make this beautiful and sophisticated music accessible to the many who appreciate vocal music. At the same time, this version charmingly extends the literature available for the harp. The arrangements presented can be performed by a choir or a soloist. Both types of performance have proved to be sophisticated and effective in practice.
