And all, all was well again! / [
] Love and pain / and world and dream! So ends the fourth of Gustav Mahlers Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen, settings of texts the composer had partly taken from the collection Des Knaben Wunderhorn (the lads magic horn), recompiling and extending them. Inspired by Franz Schuberts Wilhelm Müller song cycles, the brief cycle depicts the sorrowful tale of a lover who as a journeyman is no less than the Romantic wanderer. As with Schubert, Mahlers protagonist transcends his crisis, the conclusion pointing in the sense of an eternity that is to be expected (Christian Gerhaher) to his redemption. But first he passes through various relay-stations that are part dreamlike vision, part earthbound reality.
