Verborgenheit

Composed: March 13, 1888
Music: Hugo Wolf (1860-1903)
Words: Eduard Mörike (1804-1875)


Verborgenheit (clandestineness, concealment) remains one of Wolf’s most popular songs. He, in fact, composed it on his 28th birthday! Repeated listenings to this song with the poetry in hand make deepest impressions. The poem is deep, dark, hopeful, and laden with truth. “Oh world, let me be, entice me not with gifts of love. Let this heart in solitude have, Your bliss, your pain!” While the first two stanzas stay quieter, by the third stanza we’re reaching an exploding fortissimo. Following it’s climax and resolution we’re back where we started - “Oh world, let me be.”

The artistry of Hugo Wolf is undeniable. Building on the tradition of Schubert, Schumann, Loewe, and Wagner, Wolf’s songs became the greatest example of the fusion of poetry and music into a single artistic expression. Wolf himself called his songs “poems for voice and piano.” Wolf composed around 250 songs, each one displaying his unique talent for bringing poetry and music together.
