Swiss Singers show interest
2005-11-08T15:18:31Z  
Strange, but true:

Even though Swiss is not member of the European Union so far, some swiss hobby-singers, engaged in the topic of reaching an EU membership for Swizerland, show interest in singing the song - to encourage others for their goals.

WIll they perform it in public ? You will read it here ...

D: Unglaublich, aber wahr: obwohl die Schweiz kein EU Mitglied ist, gehören einige schweizer Hobbysänger zu den ersten, die sich für die Hymne interessieren.

Die offensichtlich musikalischen Mitglieder der Initiative"Schweiz zur EU"möchten den Song auch zur Ermutigung anderer Eidgenoss/inn/en für einen Beitritt der Schweiz singen.

Wenn es dazu eineöffentliche Aufführung gibt, wird es hier zu lesen sein ...

Recordings on CD

Hier ist die deutsche zweite Strophe und und End-Strophe, die als Duett gesungen werden kann (Autor Peter Jedlicka):

( nach derenglischen Strophe, Melodie A+B )

( Melodie A )
Ich seh´die Berge, ich seh´die Flüsse
Ich seh´die Häuser drüben stehn
Seh´keine Zäune, seh keine Grenzen
Spür´eine Sehnsucht hinzugehn

( Melodie B )
Ich seh´die Menschen, hör´sie lachen
Kann ihre Sprache nicht verstehn
Doch die Gesichter sehn vertraut aus
Sodass ich ihre Hände nehm

( Solo - oder gesummte Strophe bei Chören,
danachenglischeKurz-Schlussstrophe )

( Melodie B )
O ja ich glaube wir sind alle
In einem großen Ziel vereint
Gutes zu teilen, Schweres zu meistern
Das wird Europas Seele sein.

Wenn Sie diesen Text in eine andere EU-Spracheübersetzen können, die hier noch nicht zu finden ist, schreiben Sie bitte einmail( es soll sich reimen und es soll singbar sein ... ).

Lyrics
2005-09-26T11:43:00Z  
As was mentioned on the main page, the concept of this Hymn is, that the first verse ( containing Melody A and B ) - and half of the final verse ( Melody B ) - is sung in english language, the second verse and the other half of the final verse is sung in the language of the country where it is performed.

So here are the english verses by Peter Jedlicka. You can listen to theMelodyusing the providedMIDI File.

( Melody Part A )
I see the hills, I see a river,
I see the houses way down low
I see no borders, I see no frontiers
I feel a spirit that will grow

( Melody Part B )
I see the people, hear them laughing
Speaking words I don´t understand
But when I see their smiling faces
I know that I can take their hands.

( Second Verse - second language - melody parts A+B,
so far available inGerman( Original Version )

2x Melody Part A:
HUMMING of the Melody (for choirs + second voice )
INSTRUMENTAL SOLO (for bands )

Final Verse:
( Melody B )
Cause I believe, that we can reach you
And that we have a common goal
To share the good things, and help through hard times
And build that European Soul

( Final Verse - second language - Melody B )

If you are able to translate these verses into another language of the european union you do not yet find on this homepage, please write anemail! ( it should"rhyme"and it should be singable ! ).

Eine neue Europahymne: European Soul
2005-09-23T10:43:00Z  
Am 22.9.2005 gewann dieKomposition"European Soul"desÖsterreichers Peter Jedlicka einen Preis bei einem Kunstwettbewerb desNÖ-Kulturforumszum Thema"Auf der Suche nach der europäischen Seele".

Dieser Song hat durchaus das Zeug dazu, zu einer neuenEuropa Hymnezu werden, da er leichter ( z.B. auch für Schulchöre ) zu singen ist als Beethoven´s"Ode an die Freude", und ein einzigartiges Konzept zurEinbeziehung aller europäischen Sprachenhat:

Jeweils die erste Strophe des Songs soll in Englisch gesungen werden, die zweite Strophe und die kurze Endstrophe jedoch in derSprache jenes Landes, in dem es aufgeführt / aufgenommen wird.

Das heißt auch:mitmachen erwünscht!

Derzeit gibt es nur die englisch-deutsche Originalversion von Peter Jedliczka,Übersetzungen in andere Sprachen werden noch gesucht! Und ebenso soll der Songmöglichst viel von Chörenund SängerInnen in ganz Europa gesungen werden !

Diese Homepage sollüber diesen EU weiten kreativen Prozess berichten, ebenso wie über Konzerte und CDs bei denen"European Soul"zur Aufführung oder zur Aufnahme gelangt.

Falls Sie daran Interesse haben, nehmen Sie einfach Kontakt permailauf !
