Als ich fortging

Experience one of the most emotional and timeless classics in German music history in a stunning choral arrangement: "Als ich fortging", made famous by the band Karussell and Dirk Michaelis, captivates both choir and audience with its profound melancholy and unmatched poetic beauty. This arrangement, published by Zweiklang Verlag, is specifically written for a 3-part mixed choir (SAB – soprano, alto, baritone) and piano accompaniment. The three-part scoring makes it ideal for ensembles and choirs seeking a rich, resonant sound with just one male voice section. This piano score features a sensitive, harmonic accompaniment that perfectly supports the vocal lines while masterfully enhancing the ballad's evocative atmosphere. A wonderful addition to any concert repertoire and guaranteed to give listeners goosebumps.
