For mixed, treble, and tenor-bass choirs, these transcriptions of this famous Schubert song offer the perfect material for teaching free, bel canto-style singing, German diction, and "arch and taper" phrasing. With its strophic form and relatively simple melody, the piece can be easily learned, allowing time to focus on and develop expressive phrasing and musicality. An English translation is included in this wonderful introduction to Schubert lieder for high school choirs. Highly recommended!
