there really is some organlike in the nature of the Drehleier. But do we encounter a true organ man? I am not english speaking so i am not sure if there is a definition for organ that excludes drehleiers. So he might be an organman. i am suspicios.

@GrauenausderTiefe It can also be called a "Drehorgel", thus making the operator an organ man!

I always thought that the Leiermann would play a "Drehleier" (which is a hurdy-gurdy like thing). In this translation he is called an organ man. That would be wrong if it were a hurdy gurdy (no organ^^). It would not make so much sense if he would play an organ instead of a "Drehleier" because the fifth burdun thing in the lower voices would loose its point. In the beginning it emulates the "Drehleier" sound quite well. So I think: He's no organ man. Where is the translation from?

Sublime- easily the best version I've found. As a non-German speaker, thanks for the translation. It really adds additional depth.

Music for the Triduum when the bells have fallen silent, the Cross stands dreadful, purple-shrouded, and the Host lies, as though dying, on the altar of repose

The photographs are wonderfully well-suited to the song. The field evokes barrenness, the fallen branches death, and the forbidding trees the cruel forces which have driven the narrator to death. Five stars.

very nice...
Ist der Begleiter tatsächlich Michael Raucheisen? Die bekannte Winterreise-Aufnahme von 1933 entstand mit Hanns Udo Müller, der Hüsch fast immer am Klavier begleitete. Müller kam im Krieg bei einem Bombenangriff ums Leben.

Sehr richtig! - das war ein Copy-Paste-Fehler. Ich werde ihn korrigieren, sobald ich wieder in der Heimat bin.
Danke fuer den Hinweis.
