Analysis of Improvisation

Hans Christian Andersen 1805 (Odense) – 1875 (Copenhagen)



Naar Maanen lyser over Krat og Buske
                                                             Septemberfred,
Vi denne skjønne Aften huske
                                                   paa „Rolighed,"
Den milde, klare Luft,
                                        Trekroners Fyr —
Det Hele er et deiligt Eventyr!
