Texts used by the two settings edit

I have added the texts used by the two settings, Nachruf and Trösterin Musik, respectively. I will later add either an English translation of the texts or, at least, an expanded English summary of them. I have also updated the "Selected discography" according to Roelofs' critical review. --Réginald alias Meneerke bloem (To reply) 09:18, 2 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

I have added a translation to the text of the first setting because it is meaningful for understanding the role of the organ.
I have removed the second strophe of the text of the second setting, because it is very similar to the first strophe and it is therefore often omitted. I will later add a translation of it . --Réginald alias Meneerke bloem (To reply) 13:43, 2 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
PS: Interested people can find the second strophe (without English translation) on Hans Roelofs' critical discography.[1] --Réginald alias Meneerke bloem (To reply) 18:10, 3 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
