Duet: "Jägerlied", op. 66, no. 4

Alternative title: 
The Huntsman

Duet for soprano and contralto

From the programme 30 October, 1912:

This is an example of a dialogue duet, in which the voices either, as in this case, are never heard together, or join only at the end.  The answer to every question asked here is invariably answered:  "That must be so." The last question is:  "Huntsman, when do you fetch your sweetheart home?"  And the answer:  "Never, that must be so."
