Die Lorelei

Friedrich Silcher (1789-1860) was a German folk song collector and composer. One of his most famous songs is Die Lorelei. The music was composed first and then a poem by Heinrich Heine (Lied von der Loreley) was set to the music.

It is rare to find an accordion score of this song. This sheet music is naturally our own arrangement: we wanted to make it to sound elegant and beautiful by using the natural characteristics of the instrument. Its notes are easy to learn but remember to play both hands legato and use the bellows lively to make the music breath like a singer would!
