Episode 33: 20033 Émile Jaques-Dalcroze: Complete Lieder

The Swiss composer Émile Jaques-Dalcroze (1865–1950) is best remembered for his development of Eurhythmics, which teaches the appreciation of music through movement. This first-ever complete recording of all his German-language Lieder – setting folksongs as well as more recent Romantic poetry – shows him bridging both French and German traditions with a style somewhere between Fauré and Brahms. Written early in Jaques-Dalcroze’s career, these songs span a wide range of emotions, from innocent rural idylls to the contemplation of existential painand heartache.TracksSechs Lieder, Op. 14 (publ. 1892) (11:47)No. 1 Hochzeitslied (1:18)No. 2 Wie lan’ die Nacht (3:01)No. 3 Rosenzeit, wie schnell vorbei (1:49)No. 4 Lied des Alten (1:57)No. 5 Die Glocken läuten (1:48)No. 6 Hast du von den Fischerkindern (1:54)Sechs Lieder, Op. 15 (publ. 1892) (8:46)No. 1 Lied des Glücklichen (1:29)No. 2 Kindergebet (1:20)No. 3 In der Fremde (1:30)No. 4 Ich nehm’ es leicht (0:59)No. 5 Lieb’ Liebchen (1:22)No. 6 Als schweigend ich die rothe Rose (2:06)Zehn Lieder (publ. 1913) (22:57)No. 1 Gruss (2:55)No. 2 Schmied Schmerz (2:31)No. 3 Regenlied (2:20)No. 4 Entzückung (2:08)No. 5 Hat gesagt – bleibt’s nicht dabei (2:07)No. 6 Das Lied von ferne (2:06)No. 7 Gewitter (1:25)No. 8 Spinn, Mägdlein, spinn!
