Thoughtfully crafted to make your 2-part singers sound their best, this Andy Beck arrangement reads like a solid choral lesson plan, with built-in teaching tools.

Adapted lyrics honor the bond of friend to friend.

You may have studied this beloved Schubert art song in voice lessons, and now you can share it with developing choirs in a well-constructed, approachable arrangement. The choice of key fits comfortably within range and the Romantic era harmonies are easy to hear. Whether there are two or four hands at the piano, listeners will be hooked by the rippling water and leaping fish in the playful accompaniment. Concerned about the German words? A rhyming English translation provides a charming option. Listen to Fischer-Dieskau's iconic recording as an introduction to the piece or an extension of learning.
