German soprano Elisabeth Rethberg +••.••(...)) / By a lonely forest pathway (Griffes) / A Moonlight Song - Op. 42 No. 2 (Cadman; Mills) / Recorded: +••.••(...)?) BY A LONELY FOREST PATHWAY Charles Tomlinson GRIFFES By a lonely forest pathway I am fain at eve to flee To the dreary, rushy beaches Dearest, there to dream of thee And I watch the woods grow darker Hear the reeds' mysterious sighs Hear them whispering and complaining Till my tears, my tears arise And I fancy 'tis the accents of thy voice that round me play Till the music of thy singing On the water dies away. A MOONLIGHT SONG Charles Wakefield CADMAN; John Proctor MILLS The moonlight shimmers thro' the vine That to my porch is clinging; The flowers lightly nod their heads, My love-filled heart is singing. The petals of the rose float by Like love, her kisses bringing; And all the night is glad to me, I hear thy dear voice ringing!/

BY THE WATERS OF MINNETONKA Moon Deer, How near Your soul divine! Sun Deer, No fear In heart of mine. Skies blue O'er you Look down in love. Waves bright Give light As on they move. Hear thou My vow To live to die, Moon Deer, Thee near, Beneath this sky. Thurlow Lieurance (March 21, 1878- December 9, 1963) ~ American composer, known primarily for his song "By the Waters of Minnetonka". He is frequently classed with a number of his contemporaries, including Charles Wakefield Cadman, Arthur Nevin, Charles Sanford Skilton, Preston Ware Orem, and Arthur Farwell, as a member of the Indianist movement in American music. A typewritten note found among the composer's papers describes the legend behind the song "By the Waters of Minnetonka" : "Moon Deer, daughter of the Moon Clan, loved Sun Deer of the Sun Clan. Tribal law forbade marriage between the two clans. It was decreed that daughters of the Moon Clan must marry into the Eagle Clan. The two lovers, in tears, ran away far to the east and north. They came to a beautiful lake called Minnetonka (Minne means water; Tonka means large and round). Their happiness was disturbed because their traditional enemies, the Chippewa, lived on the north shore of this lake. They feared to return home and be separated, and finally in desperation they decided to end it all. The legend states that they disappeared beneath the waves and were no more. The waves moaned a rhythmic sound and the pines crooned their love song. Many moons afterwards the warriors of the Sioux drove the Chippewa north to Lake Superior. One night while they were camped on the shores of Lake Minnetonka, they heard the waters singing a weird melody and, in the moon-path on the waters, two lilies appeared and grew to the skies. The lilies were the spirits of Moon Deer and Sun Deer." Lieurance himself recognized how important to his career the song had been, later saying "That night marked an epoch in my life, opened to me a new world. What work I have since done has been due chiefly to that song. Thousands of people have heard it, clothed with the harmonizing which our ears demand; it is lying upon music tables all over the land, has been sung by many of the world's famous singers, including Schuman-Heink, Julia Culp and Alice Nielson."
