To stroll in the young light of spring, which now unfolds longer every day. (“Te loopen in het jonge lentelicht, dat nu elken dag langer openbloeit”)
In this episode of An Early Evening Stroll we will prepare for one of the most anticipated of seasons: Spring. We will stroll past divers composers and instruments to discover how they experience this colourful and transformative season sonically.
Der Frühling will kommen,
Der Frühling, meine Freud’,
Nun mach’ ich mich fertig
Zum Wandern bereit.
