About Oh, How Lovely Is the Evening (round)

Words: English words anonymous (printed 1896), after the German round "O wie wohl ist mir am Abend"

Tune: German round (O wie wohl ist mir am Abend), a folk round after a canon by Karl Friedrich Schulz (died 1850)

Oh, How Lovely Is the Evening is a round about evening bells. It comes from a German round, "O wie wohl ist mir am Abend", which German songbooks call a folk round after a canon by Karl Friedrich Schulz. Our round is read from the First Reader of The Educational Music Course, a Boston school music book of 1896, which prints it as a round in three parts, a whole tone lower, in E-flat. Its third line is the bells themselves, "Ding, dong" on one low note. Here it is for 2 to 4 singers: everyone sings it three times, entering six bars apart, with the tenor and bass an octave lower.
