It is the second song in his collection Six songs for high voice and piano, Op. 17, TrV 149, which were all settings of Schack poems. The song is written for voice and piano. Composition historySchack was a wealthy aristocrat who was a poet, linguist, diplomat and art collector. He was born in Mecklenburg but lived in Munich from 1855 onwards. His translations of Persian poems were among his outstanding contributions.[2] Strauss set ten poems by Schack, the six in the Opus 17 collection, following on from four in his earlier Opus 15 songs (which included Winternacht). In 1972 Norman Del Mar wrote: With "Ständchen" we come face to face with the most popular of all Strauss' songs. So often as it been heard in its orchestral form that it is easy to forget that the instrumentation is not by Strauss at all, but Felix Mottl. Other arrangements for piano solo and duett, salon orchestra etc quickly followed, and the song could well claim to have made Strauss's name into a household word single handed. That it is a masterpiece there can be little doubt.[3] The song's featherweight accompaniment combined with a light and beautifully shaped melody sets the song apart, and "the surges of lyricism both in the refrain and the climax...are the essence of that glowing ecstasy which is the peculiar quality of Strauss' art at its best".[4] Whilst in more recent years the song's popularity has been overtaken by others, notably "Morgen!" and the Four Last Songs, the song remains a standard part of recorded collections of Strauss songs.[5] The first public concert performance was with Strauss accompanying the tenor Heinrich Zeller at Weimar on 28 October 1889.[6] He wrote to his parents that the song was repeated by popular demand.[7] Strauss recorded the piece twice: in 1941 conducting the orchestral version with the tenor Julius Patzak and the Bavarian State Orchestra and in 1942 for a radio broadcast from Vienna on the piano with Finnish soprano {{Interlanguage link multi|Lea Piltti|fi}}.[8] The poem "Ständchen" has also been set by several other composers, including a version by Pfitzner.[9] LyricsSchack's poem comes from his 1866 collection Liebesgedichte und Lieder (Love Poems and Songs). Strauss slightly altered the words to the second verse (the original second line has "die über die Blumen hüpfen").
The 1912 Paul England translation is a "singable translation" which is compatible with the vocal line Strauss wrote for the German.[11] MusicThe music follows the text from a soft beginning with shimmering piano accompaniment to the ecstatic climax on "hoch glühn", when the rose is expected to glow from the "night's rapture". Roger Vignoles, the pianist for a recording of the complete songs by Strauss sung by tenor Andrew Kennedy, wrote in the liner notes about the complexity of rhythm in the treatment of longer syllables in the text, and in the climax which "thrillingly mixes short and long phrases, quick and slow, in the interplay between voice and piano". Orchestral versionIn 1895 the Austrian conductor Felix Mottl (1856–1911) wrote an orchestral version of the song, which was not finally published until 1912.[12] The instrumentation consists of:
Strauss himeself conducted the Mottl orchestral version, and indeed recorded it in 1941.
