From the composer: "Verset III is subtitled "Lied ohne Worte" and was written for the pure, early Romantic sounds of the 1844 F. X. Engelfried organ of Ev. Peter and Paul Church, Gonningen/Baden Württemberg, Germany. The spectre of Mendelssohn hovers audibly behind this simple, lyrical music. It is dedicated to Prof. Helmut Maier."
