A native of Switzerland who settled in Paris at the age of 21 (in 1823), Niedermeyer tackled one of the most famous hymns of the Alps in his Fantaisie. Since it acquired a mystical reputation during the birth of tourism in the Alpine regions at the beginning of 19 century, the Ranz des Vaches had become a synonym for the serenity and elementary power of nature in the Alps that every traveler hopes to experience there. With a musical structure of narrative complexity and virtuoso variety Niedermeyer manages to convey the multifaceted content of the traditional song.
