Der Schwanendreher

Paul Hindemith's Der Schwanendreher (literally, "swan-turner", in reference to cooking over a spit) was composed in 1935. It is a viola concerto, which already makes it unusual (Hindemith himself played the viola). Each movement is based on a separate folk song. This composition draws its title from the final movement's folk song base, "Aren't you the swan-turner?" The movements are:
  1. Zwischen Berg un tiefem Tal. Langsam Mig bewegt, mit Kraft
  2. Nun laube, Lindlein, laube. Sehr ruhig Fugato
  3. Variationen: Seid ihr nicht der Schwanendreher? Mig schnell
