Mahler selected five of Rückert's poems to set as Lieder, which he composed between 1901 and 1904. The songs are written in Mahler's late-romantic idiom, and like the texts reflect a mixture of feelings: anguish, fantasy resuscitation of the children, resignation.
The work is scored for a vocal soloist (mostly a baritone or mezzo-soprano) and a small orchestra. German arranger Christian Schüller transcribed the complete cycle for voice with accompaniment of a Symphonic Band.
