- Comments
- Song for voice and piano composed for the Berlin festivals of September 1928 "Berlin im Licht". The city staged a huge festive lighting under the motto "Berlin in the Light" with the gas and electricity companies. This advertising for modern technology was to be a demonstration of Berlin 's economic and cultural vitality only ten years after the defeat and the humiliations of 1918.
