Schubert: Die schöne Müllerin - Thomas Quasthoff, Emanuel Ax

[BluesGee]

this is definitely not one of his better recordings.

[Umbelinodan]

With all respect. Wrong notes, I can't understand the musical idea. In this music have two characters: The guy and the brook. Where's the brook, or the guy?

[tmtstudio1983]

Hands down the best version I've ever heard for this piece. People always says Mullerin is more for tenors, but I never heard a tenor that move me as much as this version for this piece. When he opens his mouth it feels like the whole world has stopped.

[pawsoned]

Beautifully sung. Amazing how the sound his voice is at odds with the sweat on his forehead <3

[theropodia]

All said, this is one of Schubet's most demanding songs (in terms of tessitura). I am disappointed the last stanza was omitted...

[onegin76]

sorry, wrong notes, wrong melisma, and sung even with the music, have some problems with this version.

[jstarro59]

world class voice... ok technique.. but he seems to need alot of effort to sing this song.. .. ofcourse he would sing better if he didnt have "die noten".. in front of his face.... a lot of lesser known singers can sing this much better... people assume that it is great because he is famous... .. take a closer look..

[ThePrest0n]

@jstarro59 take a closer look yourself - watch other videos of the man ;)

for now you are newbie to me (without insultations, right?) :)

[theropodia]

@jstarro59 Yah, I love the man's singing in general, but this is way below his standard. There are several wrong rhythms and he sounds tired.

[carfit1]

just perfect

[CuriosusSum]

Quasthoff giving a perfect rendering of the superb art of Schubert. Too bad the song is truncated.

[musicfanBRA]

Just beautiful. What a soft and sweet voice, what genuine feeling. Amazing Quasthoff!

[Will84ABA]

Sehr gut Herr Quasthoff! Sehr gut Herr Ax! Ich bewundere die durchdachte Aufarbeitung dieses wunderbaren Werks!

Beste Grüße

Thomas Quastoff has a pretty good vocal work.

I haven't heard this before but I've listened him singing Winterreise also from Schubert, He sings it a tone lower from the original but I like it.

That's good work.

Wow! speechless!

[3wwasha]

That was amazing
