High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Ruhe, meine Seele!, Op. 27 No. 1, is the first in a set of four songs composed by Richard Strauss in 1894. It was originally for voice and piano, and not orchestrated by Strauss until 1948, after he had completed one of his Four Last Songs "Im Abendrot". The words are from a poem "Ruhe, meine Seele" written by the poet Karl Henckell. Strauss composed the song in May 1894, and that September he gave it as a wedding present to his wife the soprano Pauline de Ahna. The instrumentation is: piccolo, 2 flutes, 2 oboes, cor anglais, 2 clarinets in B?, bass clarinet, 2 bassoons, 4 horns in F, 2 trumpets in C, 3 trombones, tuba, 3 timpani, celesta, harp and the orchestral string section.
