Drüben hinterm Dorfe Steht ein Leiermann Und mit starren Fingern Dreht er was er kann Barfuß auf dem Eise Wankt er hin und her Und sein kleiner Teller Bleibt ihm immer leer Und sein kleiner Teller Bleibt ihm immer leer Keiner mag ihn hören Keiner sieht ihn an Und die Hunde knurren Um den alten Mann Und er läßt es gehen Alles wie es will Dreht, und seine Leier Steht ihm nimmer still Dreht, und seine Leier Steht ihm nimmer still

about

Music by Franz Schubert, re-imagined by Sabine de Rousseau.
Lyrics by Johann Ludwig Wilhelm Müller.
Originally composed in 1827 as the final song of Schubert’s Winterreise (“Winter’s Journey”) song cycle.

It depicts a derelict street musician playing a hurdy-gurdy in the cold winter, cranking his instrument with frozen fingers. His begging bowl is empty, no one is listening, and dogs growl at him, but he continues playing.

This release contains the full version and the radio edit.
Dolby Atmos version is available on Apple Music, Tidal and similar.
