Siboni! Deres venlige Ord har foranlediget mig til at
udsætte Mel. paa en ny Maade[.] De ser, at Takterne
1.3.7.9.10.11 og sidste Akkord i 5 te Takt er anderledes
end i bl. Kor-Udgaven; men de fi re lige Stemmer er
et andet Materiale, og jeg tror nok det vil klinge ordentlig
paa denne Maade. Vil De engang gøre mig en

Fair copy (pf.) of No. 180, stanza 1 between staves,
above system “Kære Hr Claudius! Med Ønsket om et
glædeligt Nytaar sender jeg Dem denne lille Melodi
7 “20/6 24 Frederiksholms Kanal 28 A Dear Mr.
Siboni! Your kind words have made me arrange
the song in a new way. As you may see, bb. 1,
3, 7, 9, 10, 11 and the fi nal chord of b. 5 are
different from the version for mixed voices; but
four equal voices are a different matter, and I do
think it will sound properly this way. If you ever
make a copy of this version I would be happy to
have it, because I have very little time to do it
myself. Best wishes Carl Nielsen”.
