Description: A setting of Heinrich Heine's poem "Die Lorelei" (or "Loreley" or "Lore-Ley") by an unknown composer. The manuscript was originally attributed to Frederick Delius, as the autograph has ended up in a collection of Delius's early songs in the British Library. However, this attribution appears to be incorrect. The autograph stops at bar 60; the remainder of the piece is editorial.
