WithElversku
d(The Erl-Kings
Daughter), Gade presented
his secondsecular cantata
for soloists, choir and
orchestra, the first
having been his
successfulComalaOp. 12
(1845/46). The genre was
quite popular among his
contemporaries. This
time, Gade planned to
base the work on the text
of a folk song.
Originally, he had
approached Hans Christian
Andersen for a text but a
collaboration did not
materialize. The text
Gade ultimately chose for
his music was that of a
ballad most likely penned
by Emil Erslev and Gade
himself. A German
translation by Edmund
Lobedanz was added at a
later time.
The
composition, started in
1851 and finished in
March of 1854, soon
became an international
success and one of Gade's
most-performed works. In
1864, the composer made a
number of changes to the
instrumentation. While
the new version was
subsequently used for all
performances conducted by
Gade, the changes were
never incorporated into
the printed edition of
the score. This edition
is the first to present
this 1864
version.
