Work introduction
This is an arrangement over a traditional Swiss folk tune of Switzerland's northern part. It was originaly dedicated to the defens fortress "Munot" of Schaffhausen, a small town near the Rhinefall. It is about the tower bell of the fortress and how it came to be cracked. Love - hometown - jealousy - a deep bond of local sceneries and nature - so the original lyrics of the song.
