Album Description German folk songs tell the tales and stories of all walks of life. Singing as a means of expressing oneself is as common throughout German culture as beer! The symbol of the Blue Flower (Die Blaue Blume) represents the mystical search often found in German folk songs. It is a symbol of the longing for the beyond. This selection of traditional German folk songs is sung in the spirit of community.

A gift that pleased October 3, 2009 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This was bought as a birthday gift for my sister in law who was born in Germany. She recognized most of the selections and found the arrangements charming and well done without too much of the typical oom-pa-pah.
Volkslieder Extraordinaire August 21, 2009 Joan Treis (New Florence, MO United States)
It does not get better than this. We've used this CD for
events in a small German community in Mid Missouri. With this
music wafting from our Hofgarten in the heart of town, you'd
think you were in Germany. Gentle songs, gorgeous harmony and
voices. Five stars. This CD gets rave reviews from whoever
hears it.
Now I am looking for a smiliar CD and doubt I will find one that
measures up to this gem.
Beautiful traditional folk songs November 20, 2008 Jean H. Lowe (Goldvein, VA United States) Die Blaue Blume is simply lovely renditions of traditional German folk songs - no jazzed up stuff - just the original beauty of the songs and music. If you are a traditionalist, you will love this CD. If you want Pop, Jazz or Rock versions of these songs, you will not be so pleased. I especially liked the creative harmonies and the way the voices blended. I'm now ordering a copy as a gift for someone else.
Enjoyable CD November 2, 2008 John P. Wertz (Bluffton, SC USA) I've enjoyed the music greatly. Most of the songs were new to me. My only wish is that it had included a copy of the written lyrics. I buy german volcal music in part to improve my German and my ear is not good enough to in all cases catch the lyrics without being able to read them.
For Lovers of German Folk Music April 2, 2007 F. Z. Schenck (Molalla, OR USA) 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I was looking for something that was not a German brass band or accordion music from Oktoberfest. Not that I don't like that kind of music but I already have recordings of that festive, oom-pa-pa kind. I wanted something different but folksy. I found Die Blaue Blume and listened to some of the samples. It intrigued me so I bought it. I fell in love. This is like listening to Christmas carols or old Church hymns. I sounds like something that you would sing with your family and friends around a camp fire or in the evening around the piano in your living room. The songs are accompanied by guitar, violin, flute, and other instruments that give it a down home feel. I find it very relaxing to listen to.
