    Catherine Robbin sings Schumann’s Mondnacht

    “It was as if the heavens
    Had silently kissed the earth,
    So that in a shower of blossoms
    She must only dream of him.

    The breeze wafted through the fields,
    The ears of corn waved gently,
    The forests rustled faintly,
    How starry was the night.

    And my soul spread
    Far its wings
    And sailed o’er the hushed lands
    As if gliding homeward.”
