Hieber – Musiknotengeschäft :D

Took the Straßenbahn to National Theater, in search of a music shop I once glanced upon. Walked around the area for almost 20 minutes before I finally located it! Anyway, the store was great! Except, the Liszt scores they have were the norms (ie. no rare scores), so I didn't buy any. I couldn’t find the Liszt Lied (O Lieb, so lang du lieben kannst) also. Very disappointed. But I picked up two second-hand scores of Schubert Lieder (I saved more than 20 Euros!) and got myself Wolf Lieder (his complete Italian and Spanish Songbooks, where you can't get back home)! So happy I found Wolf - one of my favourite Lieder composer.

It was great that the shop assistant speaks really good English. I placed some score orders, such as my Wolf Mörike Lieder. Somebody gave me the 3rd volume of the Mörike collection (Edition Peters) for Christmas and still I was determined to own a complete collection - and hence ordered another publisher's version.
