The three songs are: 1. An sie (To Them; text by Friedrich Gottlieb Klopstock); 2. Muttertändelei (Mother Chatter; text by Gottfried August Bürger); 3. Die Ulme zu Hirsau (The Elm of Hirsau; text by Ludwig Uhland). Muttertändelei has become the more popular of the three, depicting a deliriously happy new mother who would not give her child away \"for all the coins in the world.\" The ebullient and perky song makes sudden, unexpected harmonic modulations, all set to the comic text by Gottfried August Bürger (1747-1794). Strauss orchestrated the accompaniment in 1911 in the original key of F. A version was later transposed to E major. Both keys are available from the publisher.

The text deals in themes of love in all its facets, progressing from youthful innocence to loss and renewal. Originally composed in 1841 for solo vocalist and piano, Berlioz completed orchestration of each of the six songs in 1856. While regrettably neglected for many years, this song cycle was rediscovered in the 20th century and has become one of the composer's most popular works. The songs in the original keys (1. A; 2. B; 3. F minor; 4. F-sharp; 5. D; 6. F) are available from the publisher both as a complete set (A2573) and individually. Robert Sutherland has edited five of the songs in the cycle and has transposed each in multiple keys to expand the work to more vocalists. Songs completed by Robert Sutherland: 1. Villanelle (E, F, and G), 4. Absence (Db, D, Eb, and E), 5. Au Cimetière, Clair de lune (Bb, B, and C), and 6. L'lle inconnue (D, Eb, and E). A transposition of 2. Le Spectre de la rose to D and a transposition of 3. Sur les Lagunes to g minor is also available from the publisher. Sur les lagunes is the lament of a Venetian boatman mourning the death of his beloved, knowing knowing the pain he'll experience sailing out to see unloved, expressed musically through somber harmonies imbued with melancholy, all over undulating accompaniment that suggests ocean waves.

The likelihood that his condition was incurable tempted the composer to withdraw from society, and it likely caused his temporary attraction to more religious subjects, such as the poems of Christian Fürchtegott Gellert. Six of these poems are used as the texts for his SIX SONGS, Op. 48 (SECHS LIEDER), written for voice and piano between 1801 and 1802, though No. 3 may have been sketched as early as 1798. While each poem is by Gellert, the six settings are not musically related, unlike Beethoven's one other song collection, AN DIE FERNE GELIEBTE, Op. 98. The most popular of the SIX SONGS is the fourth, the majestic DIE EHRE GOTTES AUS DER NATUR (The Glory of God in Nature), with the starting text of \"Die Himmel rühmen des ewigen Ehre\" (\"The Heavens extol the Glory of God\"). While Gellert's poem is inspired by Psalm 19, it expands on the biblical text with themes of natural theology popular at the time, where God's magnificence is revealed in nature's wonders.

The likelihood that his condition was incurable tempted the composer to withdraw from society, and it likely caused his temporary attraction to more religious subjects, such as the poems of Christian Fürchtegott Gellert. Six of these poems are used as the texts for his SIX SONGS, Op. 48 (SECHS LIEDER), written for voice and piano between 1801 and 1802, though No. 3 may have been sketched as early as 1798. While each poem is by Gellert, the six settings are not musically related, unlike Beethoven's one other song collection, AN DIE FERNE GELIEBTE, Op. 98. The most popular of the SIX SONGS is the fourth, the majestic DIE EHRE GOTTES AUS DER NATUR (The Glory of God in Nature), with the starting text of \"Die Himmel rühmen des ewigen Ehre\" (\"The Heavens extol the Glory of God\"). While Gellert's poem is inspired by Psalm 19, it expands on the biblical text with themes of natural theology popular at the time, where God's magnificence is revealed in nature's wonders.

As traditional culture in Leipzig generally eschewed female voices at the time, the vocal solo might have been sung by a boy soprano.

But they were published together, first as SIEBEN LIEDER AUS LETZTER ZEIT (SEVEN SONGS OF LATTER DAYS) with two additional Mahler songs, then with only the five songs. They have simply come to be known as Rückert-Lieder and are now most frequently performed together, although Mahler did set other Rückert poems aside from these five.

The text deals in themes of love in all its facets, progressing from youthful innocence to loss and renewal. Originally composed in 1841 for solo vocalist and piano, Berlioz completed orchestration of each of the six songs in 1856. While regrettably neglected for many years, this song cycle was rediscovered in the 20th century and has become one of the composer's most popular works. The songs in the original keys (1. A; 2. B; 3. F minor; 4. F-sharp; 5. D; 6. F) are available from the publisher both as a complete set (A2573) and individually. Robert Sutherland has edited five of the songs in the cycle and has transposed each in multiple keys to expand the work to more vocalists. Songs completed by Robert Sutherland: 1. Villanelle (E, F, and G), 4. Absence (Db, D, Eb, and E), 5. Au Cimetière, Clair de lune (Bb, B, and C), and 6. L'lle inconnue (D, Eb, and E). A transposition of 2.

They were not conceived of as a cycle, with each song only connected by the poet Friedrich Rückert and the themes. But they were published together, first as Sieben Lieder aus letzter Zeit (Seven Songs of Latter Days) with two additional Mahler songs, then with only the five songs. They have simply come to be known as Rückert-Lieder and are now most frequently performed together, although Mahler did set other Rückert poems aside from these five. Mahler orchestrated the first four songs himself, while the fifth song, Liebst du um Schönheit, was orchestrated after Mahler's death by Max Puttmann. The fifth song, Liebst du um Schönheit (If you love for beauty), was written in the summer of 1902, and it is different from the first four Rückert-Lieder in that it was written specifically for his wife, Alma, as a gift. The intimate and beautiful love song is simple, yet expressive. Max Puttmann's orchestration maintains the subtlety of the piano accompaniment.
