Faun - Blaue Stunde ♡ (Blue Hour) @ Axis Club Toronto, Ontario 2024-10-1

Faun performing the beautiful song Blaue Stunde at the Axis Club in Toronto.
Blaue Stunde - German lyrics
Zu jener Stunde, als sie mir erschienen,
da stand der Himmel still und blau.
Und durch das dämmernd fahle Licht umschrieben,
ihr Haupt - geschmückt vom Morgentau.
Weiß wie der Mond waren die feenhaft Glieder,
ihr Haar war wie von Gold gemacht.
Und mir ward bang die Stunde ende wieder,
im Lauf der sternenklaren Nacht.
Die Stunde ging, die Schöne musste fliehen,
ihr Bild verschwand im Morgengrauen.
Ich muss nun mit den Tagen weiterziehen,
doch sie bleibt altbekannter Traum.
Seitdem vernehm ich ihre süße Kunde
in allen Dingen wunderbar.
Ich denke heimlich noch der blauen Stunde
und weiß nicht, ob sie jemals war
Refrain
Ihre Schönheit weht durch alle Zeiten.
Ihr roter Mund wird mich ewig begleiten.
Blue Hour - English translation
At that hour, as she appeared to me,
The sky was still and blue there.
And the pale light of dawn outlined
Her head adorned by the morning dew.
Her fairy-like limbs were white as the moon
Her hair was like made of gold.
And I was terrified that the hour will end again
With the starry night.
The hour passed, the beauty had to flee away,
Her image tail off in the dawn twilight.
Now I have to move forward with the days,
Though she remains an old dream.
Since that time I have heard her sweet news
Wonderful in everything.
I still secretly think of the blue hour
And don't know whether it ever was.
Refrain
Her beauty is felt through the time.
Her red mouth will accompany me forever.

The Faun show at the Axis Club on 722 College St. was well-attended and had a lively audience. Before the show there was a VIP meet and greet event which required a separate ticket.
Faun is a German pagan folk band based near München in Bavaria, southern Germany, whose members are very talented and highly skilled musicians who play a variety of interesting instruments which are unusual up to now in the popular music scene. This includes the bagpipe, hurdy-gurdy, Swedish nyckelharpa, various flutes and stringed-instruments, a variety of percussion instruments, and a modern electronic component. Faun has also worked with Norwegian musicians Einar Selvik and Lindy Fay Hella of Wardruna, multi-instrumentalist Martin Seeberg from Denmark, Katja Moslehner, Rüdiger Maul and Margarethe Eible (Rairda) who has also performed with Poeta Magica.
Former band member, the stunningly beautiful, highly talented vocalist and multi-instrumentalist virtuoso Fiona Frewert (née Rüggeberg) made music history by introducing the bagpipes into modern popular music.
Faun has some very beautiful music videos made by filmmaker Kilian Keuchel.
