Today this song is often seen as creepy because the main character has a very strong desire for the one he loves. “Les Berceaux” is a French song by Gabriel Faure. This song is a lullaby about the candle light of ships, swinging off into the horizon like a mother rocking her child. Many composers write songs about the spring, but Ivor Gurney adds the sounds of birds to his song “Spring”. Some of the bird sounds that are found in this song are cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo. The lively and bright form of “Spring” makes this song perfectly made for spring. After “Spring” the next song was “Poor Wand’ring One” by Arthur Sullivan. The “Poor Wand’ring One” is a song in the musical “Pirates of Penzance”. In this musical the main protagonist leaves a band of pirates and sees a group of girls and asks which one would like to meet him. Only one replies calling him a poor wand’ring one, shortly after the two fall in love. The last song was “papageno/papagena”, which is a song from “The Magical Flute” by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Both Liza and Robert sang this German song, which is about two birds in love talking about the future they wish to
