The magnificent baritone voice of Matthias Goerne as he sings Wanderers Nachtlied (# 1, 1776)
Music Composer Frans Schubert
Pianist: Ingo Metzmacher
Poet: J.W. Von Goethe

English translation of the poem

You who come from heaven
Who calm all pain and sorrow
Who fill him who is doubly wretched
Doubly with delight
Ah, I am weary of striving
What use is all this pain and joy?
Sweet peace,
Come, ah come into my breast.
