Описание к видео Anne Sofie von Otter - Erlkönig (with English subtitles)

Der Erlkönig is a poem by Goethe. It depicts the death of a child assailed by a supernatural being, the Erlking or "Erlkönig" (suggesting the literal translation "alder king"). It was originally composed by Goethe as part of a 1782 ballad opera entitled Die Fischerin.

The poem begins by giving the impression that the child is simply dying from a vague, unspecified ailment and sees death as a figment of his imagination. As it proceeds, the poem takes an ever darker twist and ends with the child's death.
