Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau sings Fin ch'han dal vino

[alexanderkrampe]

Furchtbar



[vasrach]

Not in his best... I don't agree with those who say he was a lieder singer. He could sing great opera too. Maybe this role just doesn't suit him. He was a great Conte in le nozze di figaro.

[MariaCallasLegend]

totally unmusical!!

[1Victorinus]

This is the most musical rendition of this aria ever recorded.

[222mozart]

so I wantet him to sing...

bravo !

[mandreika1]

Lieder singers, however great they might have been should not sing opera...its not bad but he tried to make the voice bigger by darkening it

[1brewski2]

@mandreika1 Not this opera, anyway.

[mandreika1]

lieder singers, however great they might have been should not sing opera...its not bad but he tried to make the voice bigger by darkening it

[mandreika1]

lieder singers should not sing opera...its not bad but he tried to make the voice bigger by darkening it

[AfroPoli]

YUCK

[1blacklab]

Not his role.

And yet, still a wonderful, wonderful singer!

[Vincenzo2010an]

se non fosse per "belar" sarebbe perfetto.

[lotus49a]

Fischer-Dieskau had a great voice but I think it was much better suited to lieder than operatic fireworks like this.

[abracadabranque]

Des coups de gueule et de la savonnette:Un chanteur pour douche!!!

La démonstration évidente que Dieskau n'a aucun véritable appui(1:02 et la suite...1:11 etc...)Une fumisterie qui a encore cours,mais qui, ici, court après la musique!..Sans la rattraper!!!La musicalité mozartienne assassinée et l'on crierait au génie?Quelle pîtrerie!!!

[Vincenzo2010an]

in deusch ist wow.

[Vincenzo2010an]

nice.

[WhiteProfondo]

very small voice, i don´t think that he can cover an orchestra sound...

[SuperAliTheBest]

E' espressivo come pochi e si capiscono le parole (cosa che anche i cantanti italiani faticano a fare). E' l' Elvis Presley della musica classica

[bodiloto]

@SuperAliTheBest una domanda con cortesia ,di quali cantanti italiani parla ?

Elvis Presley era un bel uomo ,era una legenda...e che cosa intende dire con cito : E' espressivo come pochi ?

[SuperAliTheBest]

@bodiloto Intendo dire che non molti cantanti riescono a esprimere emozioni cantando come lo fa lui, o come faceva nel campo della musica rock il grande Elvis (cito lui perchè hanno un timbro di voce simile per certi versi, molto caldo e brillante). Parlo dei cantanti italiani in generale, dei madrelingua: spesso quando cantano non si capisce una parola! Non vorrei generalizzare troppo, ma è impressionante come un tedesco scandisca alla perfezione le parole.

[bodiloto]

@SuperAliTheBest grazie é stato/a gentile,la capisco ma avete sentito dal vivo questo artista ? E poi per me Don Giovanni di Pinza,Tibbett,,Ghiaurov,Siepi.­.. non esistono piu ...

[Vincenzo2010an]

@SuperAliTheBest come? dice belar al posto di ballar.

[unnannonelluretra]

troppo chiaro per un Don Giovanni. Lo preferisco come Conte nelle Nozze di Figaro.

[unnannonelluretra]

bodiloto Certo come Conte il risultato é veramente migliore

[TempeSunDevils14]

I really enjoy this performance because Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau is kind of light compared to other "Don Giovanni's" and I like it with a lighter tone to it.

[tiernan87]

I agree. A lot of times Giovanni has almost a "bass" sound. I much prefer a lighter approach. As a baritone with a much lighter voice (who's dream role is Giovanni!) it's encouraging to see there are others who agree.

[TempeSunDevils14]

I'm a light baritone as well... do you recommend any arias to study?

[tiernan87]

@TempeSunDevils14 Well, it depends on how old you are. but i'd definitely say "deh vieni alla finestra" from Giovanni. it helps with lightly navigating the passaggio. anything mozartean, really. he wrote very therapeutically for the baritone. the true baritone voice was first emerging during his time. many claim that papageno is the first "true" baritone role.

[TempeSunDevils14]

Well I am 20. I have only been studying for two years. I started out thinking my voice might go towards tenor but after studying for a while baritone seems to fit into the voice better. Any other suggestions?

[chobrusad]

A Fischer-Dieskau le va mejor el papel de Papageno. Parece mentira, pero un aria tan corta como ésta se hace difícil cantarla. Hasta el momento, la mejor versión escuchada es la de Cesare Siepi, en un LP muy antiguo que tengo.

[bodiloto]

- 100 !!!!! VERGOGNA !!!!

[abracadabranque]

@bodiloto Ouahahahahahahah!!!...

[deja2048]

not bad. his tempo smacks of die wacht am rhein though. kurt moll is a german whose talents extend to the classic era of mozarts germanic milieu.

[HoD3]

le timbre n'est pas assez ténébreux pour don giovanni

[strauss12345]

Here are the lyrics: Finchhan dal vino calda la testa, una gran festa fa preparar! Se trovi in piazza qualche ragazza, teco ancor quella cerca menar. Senza alcun'ordine la danza sia, ch'il minuetto chi la follia, chi l'alemanna farai ballar, ecc. Ed io frattanto dall'altro canto, con questa e quella vo'amoreggiar! Ah, la mia lista doman mattina d'una decina devi aumentar! ecc.

[vantrifan]

wow this is as good Siepi's version, that is a amazing feat this peice is very difficult even for such excellent singers.

[strauss12345]

I am wondering what Hermann Prey sounds like singing this song. I mean DFD sang well but I am wondering if Prey sang it better. If anyone has the link please tell me.

[strauss12345]

This performance was the best I have seen so far, but you should see Simon Keenlyside's performance of this. It is soooo bad.

[DiVeronica]

thisis kind of a lame rendition of it. but DFD does a great job with erlkonig

[mdgaultney]

I'm a great fan of DFD, and I think he does this aria Justice. However, to me, the best Giovanni was Eberhard Waechter. He brought an energy to the role that, in my opinion, has not been matched.

[wotan20]

I fully agree with you. Eberhard Waechter's version has more youthful fire and 'spice', but also lightness to it as well. This version is by no means bad, it is just the way a somewhat older man would sing it, with some attendant darker and heavier coloration in it.

[vanzofaust]

not his thing at all. misses the boat on the interpretation and his heavy German accent gets in the way of the way of the flow

[alecs1976]

in his way get's over all that he is just a bad singer...and his italian sucks...really badly!

[TheBestOfGobbi]

Grande prova di DFD con Bohm!! bravissimo, ma preferisco la versione con Fricsay nel 1958.

[keitha1975]

DFD is awesome! His diction might not be on par with some others, but he had awesome stage presence.

[OperaSnob]

Ouch. Even Hermann Prey was a little better at this aria in Italian.

[Antillas636]

That sounds to me a little bit disrespectful with Hermann Prey, the way you said it.

Prey was an amazing baritone and he may very well be the greatst Figaro (Mozart and Rossini) we have had.

[neronnenn]

non è un ruolo adatto al grande Fischer Dieskau....e la pronuncia lascia a desiderare...

[34fgsfgsdtu48w7qtaqt]

Chi è il direttore?

[samuraitaliano77]

Karl Böhm

[1blacklab]

One of the best ever,but this was not his role.

[frldgf]

yeah he should stick with german roles

[frldgf]

should've

[patukott]

And, I kinda fail to understand his accentuation, especially in the end.

[patukott]

Say that I'm spoilt by Gilfry's and Okulitch's "maleness", but - makes me want to hear DFD singing the Lied, where he was absolute Perfection - with a capital P. On the other hand , the Serenade is fine.

[dfd2020]

This was with Karl Böhm.

Perhaps do I prefer the one with Fricsay: his voice is younger and has more deepth - the music is faster too.

Great performance

[Debby99999]

Great ! But he is not made for Don Giovanni I think. His voice sounds too perfect.

noosphere23 : maybe is italian is good but I miss the something in the voice who would make it more emotionnal

[Sommerswerd]

i manage to hear few of DFD song...for this one...his voice darker than the other video that i heard...usually what i heard his voice usually light in colour...

but this song makes me remember cesare siepi...

as for me...as long all of them have beautiful tone...

its very interesting to hear...bass singing baritone aria...becoz i love heavy bass sound...

[Emlomor]

is it the Karl Böhm recording ?

[Antillas636]

Yes, it is from the 1967 recording in which Böhm conducted the Prague National Orchestre.

[ttijuanero]

He needs more gutts to sing Don Giovanni, he does not know how to pronounce italian, very bad.

[noosphere23]

I beg to differ. His Italian is impeccable. It's actually better than some Italian vocalists. This guy has more class than anyone I've seen or heard on the stage in over 45 years.

[Antillas636]

I partilly disagree with the last two comments posted here. In my humble opinion, DFD has the perfect voice to play the role of Dan Giovanni.

On the other hand, I agree when it is said that he tried to sing roles for which he was not suited for, Rodrigo in Verdi´s Don Carlo.

But he certainly is a great Don!!!

[floravesta]

He doesn't really hit the notes.  Just boumces around them. Fischer-Dieskau tried to sing nearly everything written for baritone and just wasn't suited for all of it. This is one of those.

[urs1765]

fischer dieskau really is a great singer but i guess this area just wasn't his... his conte in figaro is great though and all the rest of don giovanni as well

[CONTESTAR]

It drugs for me... and he sings it like a neapolitan song sung by a conductor...

[pavel343]

I've just listened to half a dozen or so versions of this aria, all very well done. When I clicked on this one and Dietrich started singing, it just stood far above and beyond anything I've heard yet.

[Selkaen]

Diestrich Fischer-Dieskau has never been completely easy as Don Giovanni. I prefer when he sings in his native tongue, especially Schubert's Winterreise.

[prophetofsorrow]

a little slow.

[LaReineDesTulipes]

Whilst it's good. I felt he lacked a little something. However, he remains one of my favourites! :) Thanks for posting it!

[hightenor123]

It might have to do with his discomfort in Italian. He sang this role twice as often in Germany, when it was standard to sing the standard rep in German.

[tlehman1]

I'd highly doubt that this wonderful Baritone is running out of breath. A visual representation would explain this.

[steainsy]

another thing I think is superb about his interpretation is the little quick trill things, well they're not really trills the notes alternate between a few, he does between a couple phrases such as at 00:50 and 01:02. Many baritones attempt this but VERY few achieve this kind of control and musicianship, as I've found in hearing different versions of this

[wotan20]

I fully agree with you. What grabbed my attention is the high level of control and exact, precise phrases. In this aria there is a difficult task to present insane passion, yet still maintain control. In this interpretation, we got a huge amount of the latter, yet there was still fairly good indication of the former.

[vickersman]

DFD was one of those very rare musicians who always captured the "artistic" interpretation to such a high standard.He may not have had the most beautiful voice-but his musicianship and intelligence was second to none.And what hasn't he sung in his career???!!!

[abbeast22]

love his voice absolutely. but there's something a little unsteady about this, especially during :20-ish when he almost trips over his part. it also sounds like he's running out of breath at certain parts. not the best interpretation i've ever heard.
