What a beautiful Song Cycle "Frauenliebe und Leben" is... I remember the first time I heard this, I was a voice major in university, and the "gals" that were my fellow students performed this in a recital, and I immediately fell in love with the songs. I recorded it on my little cassette recorder, and I still listen to it occasionally, with fond memories of my time as a foice major in university :)
Musicalidade e técnica juntas, é raridade. Assim como esta cantora, poucas existem. Sou uma das admiradoras convencidas desta grande cantora. Deus a proteja, sempre! Pernambuco - Brasil.
Whenever I hear this song I can't stop streaming down tears thinking Clara's life without Robert. Ich hab’ im Traum geweinet, Mir träumte, du lägest im Grab. Ich wachte auf, und die Träne Floss noch von der Wange herab. Ich hab’ im Traum geweinet, Mir träumt’, du verliessest mich. Ich wachte auf, und ich weinte Noch lange bitterlich. Ich hab’ im Traum geweinet, Mir träumte, du wär’st mir noch gut. Ich wachte auf, und noch immer Strömt meine Tränenflut.
Il y a longtemps que je vous aime, Frau Ameling, mais, est-ce mon matériel, l'enregistrement, le pianiste?, "ce serait étonnant, étant donné l'excellence, mille fois reconnue, de Dalton Baldwin". Mais, dans certains passage, ont n'entend que le piano. Dommage.
Despite Baldwin's fame, I completely disagree with his playing. I think he is quit insensitive to Ameling's breathing and timing. Maybe too loud as well..
Just gorgeous! Love this cycle! ❤️❤️❤️

What a lovely artist. I went to her recital in 1974 or 75 in the town of Weston, MA. I will never forget her purity and sincerity of singing.
I would love to know more about that concert!
A lovely interpretation from a magical singer.
Great voice and great interpretation
Lovely singing.TY AE for posting.

Thank You for posting it. I am incredibly appreciative of this.

Ich hab’ im Traum geweinet,
Mir träumte, du lägest im Grab.
Ich wachte auf, und die Träne
Floss noch von der Wange herab.
Ich hab’ im Traum geweinet,
Mir träumt’, du verliessest mich.
Ich wachte auf, und ich weinte
Noch lange bitterlich.
Ich hab’ im Traum geweinet,
Mir träumte, du wär’st mir noch gut.
Ich wachte auf, und noch immer
Strömt meine Tränenflut.
Of course how can you not love Schumann?
Following your words, how can we not love the Intermezzo from Faschingschwang aus Wien ( Carnaval de Vienne) ?

I completely agree! I think her collaboration with pianist Rudolf Jansen was much better.

I don't the sound really shows what her singing of this is like. It's not quite like the LP version by her that I have.
Her style feels a little on the ... operatic side for such an intimate artsong.

Agreed
