Herr, Führe Du Die Luft

This piece is an intonation of the thoughts that went through my mind when I was allowed to play the organ in Solda, Italy for the first time. The lyrics contain the rhymed version of my thoughts and reflect a mindset of both excitement and thankfulness for this opportunity.



Lyrics (in German):

Herr, führe Du die Luft,
geformt durch Mund und Hände
und was ich gleich Dir spiel'
inmitten dieser Wände
von heut' nun an
bis an mein Lebensende!

~~~ Sulden/IT, Sommer 2013 ~~~



A rough translation:

Dear Lord, please guide the air,
formed by mouth and hands
and what I'll shortly play for you
right between these walls
from the present day
until my end of life!

~~~ Solda/Italy, Summer 2013 ~~~
