Peter Schindler’s full-length secular choral work Sonne, Mond und Sterne (Sun, Moon and Stars) narrates a love story based on ‘old’ texts which are given a new interpretation through these musical settings. Some individual numbers were published separately, and now more movements with piano accompaniment are available in print and digitally.
- Choral work of medium difficulty
- Will appeal to experienced ‘Brahms Requiem singers’ as well as ambitious chamber or youth choirs with a gospel, pop or jazz background
- Cross-over between jazz, chanson, and chamber music

lehnt träumend an der Berge Wand,
ihr Auge sieht die goldne Waage nun
der Zeit in gleichen Schalen stille ruhn;
und kecker rauschen die Quellen hervor,
sie singen der Mutter, der Nacht, ins Ohr
vom Tage,
vom heute gewesenen Tage.Das uralt alte Schlummerlied,
sie achtet’s nicht, sie ist es müd’;
ihr klingt des Himmels Bläue süßer noch,
der flücht’gen Stunden gleichgeschwungnes Joch.
Doch immer behalten die Quellen das Wort,
es singen die Wasser im Schlafe noch fort
vom Tage,
vom heute gewesenen Tage.Eduard Mörike (1804–1875)

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.
