The discovery of and turning towards Nature was a preoccupation of the newly emergent bourgeoisie as early as the first half of the 19th century. It was this enthusiasm for Nature that gave rise to Felix Mendelssohn's five choral collections entitled Im Freien zu singen (To sing out of doors). His subtle handling of the demands of an a-cappella arrangement in his Frühlingsahnung (Spring is in the air), which appeared in 1840, reveals Mendelssohn at the pinnacle of his compositional powers. The sanfte, süße Hauch – gentle, sweet breath of air – of Ludwig Uhland's poem pervades the choral piece in graceful melodies that develop into a vivid and atmospheric Romantic picture.
