  • Mahler Lieder Eines Fahrenden Gesellen – Die Zwei Blauen Augen (The Two Blue Eyes)

    Mahler Lieder Eines Fahrenden Gesellen – Die Zwei Blauen Augen (The Two Blue Eyes)
    Mar 23 2021

    The final movement culminates in a resolution. The music, also reused in the First Symphony (in the Scherzo “Funeral March in Callot’s manner”), is subdued and gentle, lyrical and often reminiscent of a chorale in its harmonies. Its title, “Die zwei blauen Augen von meinem Schatz” (“The Two Blue Eyes of my Beloved”), deals with how the image of those eyes has caused the Wayfarer so much grief that he can no longer stand to be in the environment.

    He describes lying down under a linden tree, allowing the flowers to fall on him. He wishes to return to his life before his travels. He asks that the whole affair had never occurred: “Everything: love and grief, and world, and dreams!”
