Composer Peter Schindler on this separate edition from Perpetuum mobile:
Text no. 132 in the Codex Buranus reveals that at the time when the manuscript was written, the poets and singers were describing or singing about life directly from their own closely observed lived experiences. What we read there about birdsong sounds like an anticipation of the text “Alle Vögel sind schon da” by August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben. And the birds are still chirping those same tunes today. What a concert! The stork is still chattering, the nightingale is warbling as ever she did, the geese are cackling and the cicadas are chirping. Bees are buzzing, woodpeckers are pecking, and you can still hear the cuckoo’s call.
This song describes Nature’s wonderful spring music. It is a kind of live report from the Middle Ages. It will delight anyone who enjoys holding his sweetheart in his arms. There you go! A cheerful song on a sunny spring day, an atmospheric song in a medium tempo, which transports the rustling of the reeds in the balmy wind directly into the concert hall.

Composer
Peter Schindler
| 1960Composer, pianist and organist Peter Schindler writes and performs music for ballets and theatrical performances, films and dramatic recordings, instrumental and choral arrangements, chansons and sacred works. He is particularly passionate about his compositions for children and young adults, which has come to comprise hundreds of humourous children’s songs (Kinderhits mit Witz). His full-length musicals include Geisterstunde auf Schloss Eulenstein (Witching Hour at Eulenstein Castle), Max und die Käsebande (Max and the Cheese Gang), König Keks (Cookie King), Zirkus Furioso (Circus Allegro), and SCHOCKORANGE. These musicals are some of the most frequently played pieces of their kind by children’s and youth choirs in German-speaking theaters and schools. With his first English musical Circus Allegro, Peter’s hugely sucessful work for all kids under 100 is now also accessible to audiences around the world.
