my music
Specialized on the Waldzither for accompanying myself I started on two whole programs
of own songs written in German.
Meanwhile I transcribed several of my songs into English, often creating the song literally
anew to express the meaning matching the musical structure.
Some songs I write directly in English, like this Fado song, specially written for and performed
at the ‘International Citternconference’ (University of Coimbra, October 2007):
more songs:
Huberts Traum (Instrumental), 2006
Kashmir, 2006
Nachtigall-Fado, 2007
Do what you love, 2012
Dragonfly Dance (live), 2013
Deep in your heart, 2020
1.Since you stopped to talk to me,
Held back your jokes and laughter
Your silence made a fool of me
Loving you for what you are
2.Did I lose a brother,
Did I lose a lover?
Never shared my life with you
But losing you still breaks my heart
If once the nightingale sang for you
Your mind will never lose the tune
But you will long for the song
In your heart ever after
Nightingale - (Nachtigall) Fado
