Bald prangt, den Morgen zu verkünden by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart — Lyrics
Bald prangt, den Morgen zu verkünden,
die Sonn' auf goldner Bahn;
bald soll die Nacht, die düstre, schwinden
und heller Tag uns nah'n.

About Bald prangt, den Morgen zu verkünden
The German text Bald prangt, den Morgen zu verkünden paints a scene of dawn breaking, with the sun appearing on its golden path and the dark night receding. It calls for heavenly peace to descend and return to human hearts, promising that peace and blessing will then enter the earth, making it a heaven. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart set this hopeful text for SSA voices. This secular part-song offers a beautiful opportunity to explore rich harmonies and express the uplifting message of the lyrics through the three female voice parts.
