\"\"<\/a>The new series PianoPlus<\/strong><\/span> is an ideal entry and re-access to the world of classical music, and likewise for all carnival enthusiasts and carnival grouches, who would like to make music with others.
\nAs a sensational new source proves, Ludwig van Beethoven was \u2013 one can hardly believe \u2013 of a foolish nature and not at all averse to merry making and carnival. The Lied, discovered just a while ago in the attic of the Cologne G\u00fcrzenich<\/a>, was supposedly composed during the Bonn period, but never published.<\/p>\n

Hence, this Opus opens our new series \u2013 following strict academic, editing criteria and of course published in best proven Urtext-quality.<\/p>\n

This piece lends itself uniquely to the practice of the Rheinish pronunciation as required in many compositions by Beethoven (cf. Ludwig van Beethoven, 9th symphony in d minor, op. 125, 4th movement, mm. 241 ff. \u201eFr\u00fcnde sch\u00f6ner J\u00f6ttterfunke\u201c). Be sure to sing in a loud and vociferous voice. You should not neglect the rhythm when practicing and please count in regular quarter beats.<\/p>\n

* Real friends, hold together,
\nHold together as well as a god and a pot**
\nReal friends, hold together, even when your happiness is on the move and runs away from you.
\nFriends, friends, friends in need
\nWalk a hundred, a hundred on a Lot.
\nReal friends stick together
\nJust as a God and a pot.<\/p>\n

When you will have good luck, success and come to money,
\nAt once God and the world knows you are here.
\nPeople who previously have not known you,
\nCome running up out of the holes,
\nSuddenly everybody\u2019s related to you.
\nRefrain:
\nReal friends …<\/p>\n

Pat on the shoulder, Bravo has no end.
\nThey think you\u2019re really great and carry you on their hands.
\nHappy is he who cannot be fooled
\nAnd who is not too much distracted by beautiful eyes,
\nIn every friend a real friend perceives.<\/p>\n

When you have bad luck; it goes down the mountain,
\nForgotten is everything you reached before.
\nPeople that have previously known you well
\nDon\u2019t even shake hands with you.
\nNow you can see who rightfully called himself your true friend.<\/p>\n

** \u201cas a god and a pot\u201d is a short form of the Cologne credo \u201cwe pray to god and eat out of one pot\u201d meaning something like \u201cwe are so close that closer is not even possible\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
