  • @MrHomerum Yes he said Weib and Kind in the wrong order!

  • sing!!!

  • Was schert mich WEIB, was schert mich KIND... :)

  • A little slow for my tastes but nonetheless an amazing performance.

  • The Voice.

  • I will be performing this piece later this semester for my jury. This is my favorite version so far, Bryn Terfel is excellent!

  • @hotshot8917 Try Richard Tauber singing this one, he's my favourite =)

  • It's great to see this and hear both how far this piece came when he's done it in later years, as well as his amazing, if very different, interpretation then.

  • Excellent. 

  • Always a good sound but I find the whole a bit studied. The dynamics and tempi seem more driven by a need to vary or impress than a genuine response to the text.

  • A great artist but almost too intellectual and self-conscious by comparison with Hans Hotter, for example.

  • bravo !

  • Best!

  • I sat next to him in the bass section of a choir in London(North London Chorus). What an experience for me. He was about 19 and a student at the Guildhall.Now he is one of the worl's best opera and lieder basses.

    What a career since! But way back then one could hear the fantastic quality of his voice. Add to that his modesty and you have a truly great artist.

  • I also saw him pretty early on, at an Eistedfodd in the mid-80s, where he was just astonishing-- then a few years later, at his first US concert with the Met orchestra. He sang "Kindertotenlieder," and he was about 28 or 29. He made a huge sensation-- nobody had ever heard a singer that young sing those songs with such technique AND sensitive interpretation.

  • wow! amazing!

  • Superb !

  • His German pronounciation is really good here,sounds more "natural" than years ago where his "Erlkönig" was nearly not to understand. Although I like him and his singing, it sounds to me that he is barking some phrase instead of singing.Nevertheless one of my favorites in opera music.

  • bryn is one of best artist. but this perf. is to slow in interpretation at the beginn..

  • fantastico*****

  • Bravo!!!! Super voice, cool rubato´s, great pronounciation!! This is an example for each other Bass/ Bass-Bariton/Bariton. Guys, hear this man!:-)

  • Bravo!
