closely through the ages,
severe storms, mild westerlies,
anxious worries, merry festivals
travel side by side.
And where many a tear falls,
also blossoms many a rose,
already mixed, ere we ask it,
for thrones and for huts
are the lots of pain and pleasure.
Was it not so in the old year?
Will it end in the new?
The sun rises and sets,
clouds part and return,

traulich durch die Zeiten,
schwere Stürme, milde Weste,
bange Sorgen, frohe Feste wandeln sich zur Seiten.
Und wo manche Träne fällt,
blüht auch manche Rose,
schon gemischt, noch eh wir’s bitten,
ist für Thronen und für Hütten
Schmerz und Lust im Lose.
War’s nicht so im alten Jahr?

Composer
Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy
| 1809-1847Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1809–1847) is regarded as one of the most important composers of the Romantic period. His compositions combine the formal clarity of the Viennese Classical period with the heightened expressiveness of the 19th century. His engagement with the music of Johann Sebastian Bach was particularly influential; he played a key role in its rediscovery through the performance of the St Matthew Passion in 1829.
Among his best-known vocal works are his two oratorios, Paulus and Elias, as well as his chorale cantata Verleih uns Frieden gnädiglich. Furthermore, Mendelssohn worked as a conductor, pianist and music teacher, and made a significant contribution to the professionalisation of the concert scene and to the development of the Leipzig Conservatoire. His work occupies a central position in 19th-century music history and combines a sense of tradition with Romantic sound aesthetics.
