Prachtig! 👏 Such a wonderful pairing- Roderick Williams delivers these RLS/RVW gems with genuine love and sensitivity, and Daan Boertien's sincere accompaniment is truly outstanding. Wherever and whenever this pair may reassemble, I will come and listen, for sure. But I really must hear "Let Beauty Awake," please 🙏 Van harte!
Give to me the life I love, Let the lave go by me, Give the jolly heaven above, And the byway nigh me. Bed in the bush with stars to see, Bread I dip in the river- There’s the life for a man like me, There’s the life for ever. Let the blow fall soon or late, Let what will be o’er me; Give the face of earth around, And the road before me. Wealth I seek not, hope nor love, Nor a friend to know me; All I seek, the heaven above, And the road below me. Or let autumn fall on me Where afield I linger, Silencing the bird on tree, Biting the blue finger. White as meal the frosty field- Warm the fireside haven- Not to autumn will I yield, Not to winter even!
The accompanist did a great job!

Van harte!
Williams's performance is excellent. But it would be less impressive if not for the superb support from the excellent pianist Daan Boertien.
What a pro, his breath is unbelievable
Stunning! Perfection!
Give to me the life I love,
Let the lave go by me,
Give the jolly heaven above,
And the byway nigh me.
Bed in the bush with stars to see,
Bread I dip in the river-
There’s the life for a man like me,
There’s the life for ever.
Let the blow fall soon or late,
Let what will be o’er me;
Give the face of earth around,
And the road before me.
Wealth I seek not, hope nor love,
Nor a friend to know me;
All I seek, the heaven above,
And the road below me.
Or let autumn fall on me
Where afield I linger,
Silencing the bird on tree,
Biting the blue finger.
White as meal the frosty field-
Warm the fireside haven-
Not to autumn will I yield,
Not to winter even!
What a performance! I have tears in my eyes.

Excellent, the best I heard
Excerpts ----- Full cycle 9 songs...
Superb
Lovely to hear Roderick singing my favourite of RVW's songs I have sung myself over the years - but a few missing numbers?
True but IMHO he got the best numbers of the set
@@robinhillyard6187 Nay, my favorite is missing- "Let Beauty Awake."
@@keithwms you’re right! How could I have forgotten that one?
Scusate, ma il ciclo non è completo. Come mai?
Indeed. And what they left out is one of the finest RVW songs, in my opinion.
(That said, it's a very challenging piece)
😮😅😊
