Anders kein freud by Heinrich Finck — Lyrics
Anders kein freud ich nit beger
dann frölich sein in eeren
halt mich der gleich dich nit ver kher

wann all mein weyß

liebst du mir ob in allen
Anders frölich wil ich sein nit
dann zucht und eer zu mehren.
Wie wol die sach laufft spitzig mit
will mich nit fast bethören
du weyst wo was

About Anders kein freud
This SATB setting of Heinrich Finck's German secular Lied Anders kein freud presents a warm and inviting texture. The four voices blend contrapuntally, creating a rich harmonic sonority. The text speaks of a simple desire to live joyfully and honorably, holding God in high esteem and seeking to please Him in all things. It expresses a deep faith and a yearning for virtuous living, finding its greatest happiness in devotion and integrity. The composer's musical setting reflects the sincerity of these sentiments, offering a piece that is both musically engaging and spiritually uplifting.
