Come on, Schubert ... ( 1 year ago by gspaulsson)

Come on, Schubert doesn't tax his singers technically. I think the high A near the end here is the highest note he ever wrote in a lied. Expression is everything.

Brilliant. Absurd ... ( 1 year ago by jm960)

Brilliant. Absurd to suggest this Lied was outside here Fach....give me a break. Have a listen to the Fleming- Eschenbach recording for a real laugh. It sounds like pornographic verismo with the longest Kuss in history....roaring and exciting but not Schubert.

I know a 14 year ... ( 1 year ago by AlexiouValenti)

I know a 14 year old girl who sings this song beautifuly,in a very similar way to lucia!! I think that it is much better with a lighter (or younger ) voice but with plenty of emoition thana hefty voice with no emoition!!
oh and by the way are you aware that Lucia sang Wagner? I highly dount that anyone who could sing even the lighter wahner would have a voice too small for a lied!!

I heard Popp sing ... ( 1 year ago by Azzenstudent)

I heard Popp sing at least a half-dozen times back in the 70s ( as Sophie, Susanna, Rosina, Zerlina, Despina). Her voice was small and easily got swamped by others in ensembles. I don't mean this as a criticism. She was who she was, and her voice was quite pure for this reason. Bigger voices almost invariably sacrifice tonal beauty for size.

Popp did sing ... ( 1 year ago by Azzenstudent)

Popp did sing Wagner (Eva, Elsa, and on record, Elizabeth). As she matured, her voice became "jugendlich dramatische", fuller and more sensuous. But it was never a big voice. I admired Popp's risk-taking but she was close to being the opposite of Birgit Nilssen.

Most singers are ... ( 1 year ago by AlexiouValenti)

Most singers are close to being the opposite of her!! With that voice no one could touch her!!!

That is not exactly ... ( 1 year ago by fwoukje)

That is not exactly true! Schubert writes many large intervals in his Lieder, and in his last Lied written for soprano (accompanied by clarinet and fortepiano) "Der Hirt auf dem felsen" a number of B's drift along, including a long one at the end. The version by Elly Ameling on youtube is wonderful, although she sings the version which is a tone lower, whihc is more difficult for clarinet.

She is just an ... ( 1 year ago by pfhrsharp)

She is just an awesome singer. Hands down!!!! I love her voice!!

This was lovely, ... ( 11 months ago by blairinnyc)

This was lovely, but I think my favorite interpretation is still Jessye Norman singing this. Definitely worth a listen!!!

I don't know this ... ( 11 months ago by claraclairbert)

I don't know this recording but I heared the song live by Fleming some years ago and I had exactly the same impression. In French we say, it's du "chiqu
é", meaning that everything is prepared with effect in view. With Popp, we have a real emotion.

I still think that ... ( 11 months ago by shearmanny)

I still think that Christa Ludwig is the best Gretchen am Spinnrade.

Co-sign on the top ... ( 11 months ago by MarcionusNovus)

Co-sign on the top note observation except for Kathleen - she "bloomed" up to a C or C#6 but above that - ew. Listen to her "Una voce poco fa" or better/worse, "Grossm
ächtige Prinzessin". Everything above a D flat is dry and thiiiiis close to a scream.

I disagree; I think ... ( 9 months ago by baakal01)

I disagree; I think she has a lot of beautiful sounds and great intensity.

I still think that ... ( 9 months ago by germanbigdaddy)

I still think that I should be working in college, helping all those young women perform Gretchen am Spinnrad *b

Anybody listened ... ( 9 months ago by opiuytc)

Anybody listened the recording with Schwarzkopf and Edwin Fischer? Nothing else matters.

Also Barbara ... ( 9 months ago by opiuytc)

Also Barbara Hendricks and Radu Lupu play the lied wonderful, excepting the german pronontiation of Hendricks

opiuytc. I would love to hear that! Radu Lupu is about my favorite pianist.

I like this ... ( 6 months ago by LLehmannfan)

I like this recording very much, because Lucia didn't sing the song with the shrill and "dramatic" timbre often used by singers of the "second row". Here the melody just flows quite seamless. Thanks a lot!

Who is the pianist? ... ( 6 months ago by musicdivinemusic)

Who is the pianist? Excellent accompaniment.

Irwin Gage.

Strange but very interesting interpretation. Until today I just knew the recording by Christa Ludwig and it's played way faster.
Ôo

Mhm, I did this ... ( 3 months ago by CptJackSparrowLove)

Mhm, I did this song for a performance(There was an accompaniment cd with my music book) and it was much faster than this. It sounds much better faster. It's more spinning wheel like.
