There are very few Lieder or arias in the world, known to me, with which I can identify more than this one. Also the first one I ever performed on stage. Lucia is wonderful as ever. I can not stress enough how blessed we are to have been given the gift of appreciation for music, art and beauty - not everybody has the gift of appreciation. Do not take it for granted. Always treasure it. Always be thankful. Thanks for posting.
I move in circles where this music is not appreciated and am often ribbed for my love of it. I tell them that they dont know what they are missing and that they have my sympathy. This performance is nowhere near the best interpretation of this wonderful music.,
O fairest art, how oft in dreary hours blighted, When I am trapped and lost in life’s wild race, Hast thou with love on this poor heart alighted And gently flown it to a better place. From thy sweet harp a sigh so often drifted, A holy chord of harmony and bliss; Thou show’dst me heaven’s blessed light uplifted; O fairest art, I thank thee so for this.
Du holde Kunst, in wieviel grauen Stunden, Wo mich des Lebens wilder Kreis umstrickt, Hast du mein Herz zu warmer Lieb' entzunden, Hast mich in eine beßre Welt entrückt, In eine beßre Welt entrückt! Oft hat ein Seufzer, deiner Harf' entfloßen, Ein süßer, heiliger Akkord von dir, Den Himmel beßrer Zeiten mir erschloßen, Du holde Kunst, ich danke dir dafür, Du holde Kunst, ich danke dir!
De acuerdo y, en general, para este lied prefiero una voz masculina. Si para Fischer -Diskau y, en tenor, Fritz Wunderlich. Lucía es maravillosa en otro tipo de cosas. Su performance de Et Incarnatus est de Mozart es, a mi modo de ver, insuperable
@@tiggywinkle20 absolutely -Souzay performance is perfection -diction immaculate; superb phrasing and a real musicality -I can't even imagine it being equalled let alone better -it reached the soul.
Indtil denne dag kendte jeg ikke Lucia Popp, men hvilken glædelig overraskelse. Flot - virkelig flot. Også andre af hendes sange har jeg hørt og nydt i dag - f. eks. Rusalka´s "Sang til Månen".
Du holde Kunst, in wieviel grauen Stunden, Wo mich des Lebens wilder Kreis umstrickt, Hast du mein Herz zu warmer Lieb entzunden, Hast mich in eine beßre Welt entrückt! Oft hat ein Seufzer, deiner Harf’ entflossen, Ein süßer, heiliger Akkord von dir Den Himmel beßrer Zeiten mir erschlossen, Du holde Kunst, ich danke dir dafür!
A very gentle, soft and warm rendition of this beautiful song.

Flawless as usuall for Lucia Popp. This feeds my soul.
One of the lied I most adore sung by one of the singers I most admire. How beautiful and touching.
Wow, young Lucia's voice!. Thanks to dialectgirl for sharing this treasure!
Wonderful performance. I first heard this song on a vinyl LP sung by Gerard Souzay, and this experience has remained with me for over thirty years.
Gerard Souzay was wonderful too.
목소리도 아름답고
음악성도 훌륭한 루치아 포프, 그녀가 연가곡 겨울여행 백조의 노래
아름다운 물방아간의 아가씨를 부른 녹음이
있었다면 참으로 좋은
레코드로 남았을 것을
생각해 봅니다~
This is s a wonderful rendition, and is live. Christa Ludwig's recording is very special as well.
O fairest art, how oft in dreary hours blighted,
When I am trapped and lost in life’s wild race,
Hast thou with love on this poor heart alighted
And gently flown it to a better place.
From thy sweet harp a sigh so often drifted,
A holy chord of harmony and bliss;
Thou show’dst me heaven’s blessed light uplifted;
O fairest art, I thank thee so for this.
Thanks for this great post. Her Laudate dominum is supreme too.
Wunderbar! Diese Stimme einfach bezaubernd!
Du holde Kunst, in wieviel grauen Stunden,
Wo mich des Lebens wilder Kreis umstrickt,
Hast du mein Herz zu warmer Lieb' entzunden,
Hast mich in eine beßre Welt entrückt,
In eine beßre Welt entrückt!
Oft hat ein Seufzer, deiner Harf' entfloßen,
Ein süßer, heiliger Akkord von dir,
Den Himmel beßrer Zeiten mir erschloßen,
Du holde Kunst, ich danke dir dafür,
Du holde Kunst, ich danke dir!
This singer has gone to heaven where she is enchanting Lord and other supreme masters.
Heavens are prettier now.
One of the greatest, if not the greatest soprano!
The greatest soprano ever. Herr Schubert left the cruel world much too young.
Unfortunately so did also the wonderful Lucia Popp- and her beautiful voice.
How could anyone dislike this😕
Her 'Depuis le Jour' has never been bettered.
Wahre Eleganz ist zeitlos.
i like this song. i like her singing.
I like this version.
This is art first class!
pure diamond.
Merveilleuse Lucia!!!!
I feel melancholic now. Beautiful singing as always. Thank you very much for this wonderful post.
Best regards
Satoko
Oh, Lucia, mon amour !Polaire
Von meinen cousineninen die lieblingsmusik
For a baritone version listen to Pavel Lititsian and Dietrich Fischer -Diskau.
De acuerdo y, en general, para este lied prefiero una voz masculina. Si para Fischer -Diskau y, en tenor, Fritz Wunderlich.
Lucía es maravillosa en otro tipo de cosas. Su performance de Et Incarnatus est de Mozart es, a mi modo de ver, insuperable
And Gerard Souzay.
@@tiggywinkle20 absolutely -Souzay performance is perfection -diction immaculate; superb phrasing and a real musicality -I can't even imagine it being equalled let alone better -it reached the soul.
And George London.
Danke
Very nice!
My favorite interpretation of this lied, thank you so much! But in which album was it released?
Indtil denne dag kendte jeg ikke Lucia Popp, men hvilken glædelig overraskelse. Flot - virkelig flot. Også andre af hendes sange har jeg hørt og nydt i dag - f. eks. Rusalka´s "Sang til Månen".
Hear her in carmina.
Can anyone tell me what key this is in?
D major
이야~~ 은쟁반에 옥구슬이 또르륵 👍
I like Popp better than Schwarzkopf and Schwarzkopf better than Ferrier. But best of all is Lotte Lehman.
I can't compare Ferrier with the sopranos. But you were stating preferences I guess rather comparing.

Du holde Kunst, in wieviel grauen Stunden,
Wo mich des Lebens wilder Kreis umstrickt,
Hast du mein Herz zu warmer Lieb entzunden,
Hast mich in eine beßre Welt entrückt!
Oft hat ein Seufzer, deiner Harf’ entflossen,
Ein süßer, heiliger Akkord von dir
Den Himmel beßrer Zeiten mir erschlossen,
