Description
From "Fünf Lieder nach Texten von Friedrich Rückert," arranged for 12-part mixed choir a cappella.
Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen, arguably Mahler's most beautiful love song, was composed before he even met Alma in winter 1901. The motivic material of this song has a central role in Mahler's work and its echoes run like a golden thread through those other works of his that that focus on the theme of love.
