Schubert: Ständchen
YouTube Uploaded by ScrollingMusic on Nov 1, 2011
"Franz Schubert (1797-1828): Ständchen, from Schwanengesang, D 957, a posthumous collection of songs. Ständchen ("Serenade"; the singer exhorts his lover to make him happy)
The song featured may be the most popular of Schubert's songs in this collection, which uses poems by three poets, Ludwig Rellstab (poet of this song), Heinrich Heine and Johann Gabriel Seidl.
The notes in the bass is a combination of several existing synthesized instrument sounds (clarinet, electric piano, vibraphone and guitar) with modified attack, decay, sustain, and release parameters. The sound for the voice is also a mix of sustaining instruments: clarinet, saxophone, organ, and vibrato wind to name a few.
We used a scrolling spectrogram, as the graphic plot of the spectral content of an audio signal. The vertical axis represents frequency, and the horizontal axis time. Higher-pitched notes appear higher up on the screen, and the harmonics for each individual note are visible above the fundamental at regularly spaced intervals."
