Reimann/ Schafer/ Himmelheber - Kinderlieder

The inspiration and influence of a particular performer or even a specific request for a new work can be of immeasurable importance for the creation of a new composition. Particularly in music for the voice, the vocal characteristics of the intended singer have always played an essential role in determining the character of new pieces. This has also been the case for Aribert Reimann, who wrote each of his song cycles with a specific singer in mind.
