Here are two songs for voice I wrote back in February. These are pieces I wrote shortly after a break to composition, I was too busy to write anything for most of last semester. They are a setting of Goethe's two "Wandrers Nachtlied" poems, famously set by Schubert and Liszt among others. 

I wrote this pair of songs on/around Valentine's Day, I had a lot on my mind and these were the output of that. I'll be performing them myself relatively soon, as will a friend of mine, and I will post a real recording soon. In the mean time, enjoy the MIDI 😝

Let me know your thoughts!

Hi @mercurypickles!

Lovely pair of songs, the first one lyrical and second one pastoral, especially with the oboe sounding lol! I really like your modulation to Eb major in the second song, it’s like quoting material from the 1st song to the 2nd song. However I would say the interlude is a bit too long for me, maybe for me I will shorten it. Thx for sharing!
