Even if
Schumann falls back on
the hymnbook when
choosing the text of his
'Adventlied' (Advent
Song), the composition
was probably politically
motivated and, still
under the impressions of
the revolutionary years
of 1848/49, owed to the
longing for peace. The
'Adventlied' (Advent
Song), like the
'Neujahrslied' (New
Year's Song), is 'a
strange mixed genre
between sociable,
covertly political and
religious chant'.
