Kinderfreuden

In 'Kinderfreuden' Enjott Schneider perfectly manages to set the five - partly absurdly funny - poems by Wilhelm Busch to music. The texts of 'Die Tute', 'Verfrüht', 'Kurz und grob', 'Selbstgefällig' and 'Motto' virtually invite the composer to open his bag of tricks. These little pieces will certainly give every singer and his or her accompanist on the piano great pleasure. Schneider studied music and German studies and has been professor of music theory (meanwhile of film composition) in Munich since 1979. His extensive activities as composer, performer, music writer and lecturer have made him a versatile musician whose compositional oeuvre ranges from 'classic' avant-garde to pop music.
