Frühlingsgruß, Op. 79, No. 4 by Robert Schumann — Lyrics
So sei gegrüßt viel tausendmal,
holder, holder Frühling!
Willkommen hier in unserm Tal,
holder, holder Frühling!
Holder Frühling, überall
grüßen wir dich froh mit Sang und Schall.
Du kommst, und froh ist alle Welt,
holder, holder Frühling!
Es freut sich Wiese, Wald und Feld,

About Frühlingsgruß, Op. 79, No. 4
Robert Schumann’s Frühlingsgruß, Op. 79, No. 4 is a charming secular German part-song celebrating the arrival of spring. Originally conceived for mixed chorus (SATB), this arrangement also offers options for a treble choir (SSAA). The text expresses joyous welcome to the season, personifying Spring and describing how all nature rejoices, from fields and forests to birdsong. The music likely mirrors this exuberance, creating a bright and festive atmosphere. This is an ideal piece for choirs looking to program something uplifting and tuneful, capturing the fresh, vibrant spirit of spring through engaging choral textures. It’s a delightful example of Schumann’s songful approach to choral writing.
