After the big success of the Nursery Rhyme Collection in England producer and arranger Ian Watts and his German co-arranger Mike Wilbury decided to launch a similar project with traditional German Songs. Most tunes came up centuries ago but some tracks are actually brand new, exclusively written for this collection.

Background notesThis is a very traditional German folk song, originating about a century ago. The text was written by Anton Wilhelm Florentin von Zuccalmaglio, the melody is a mixture of existing fragments. What makes our version quite special is the melting of completely different cultures: A very traditional German tune interpreted by a young singer grown up in the Phillipines. |
