Ian Bostridge- Die Forelle

[TheJbach]

How very sweet, touching, sensitive and loving are the German poets of the 19th century!!

[Linkwiththesword]

Played this for a student at school once. Love it to death, But I sure tripped up a lot. Thank you Db lol

[Tubemember6]

He must have worked so hard. He's British and sings German without any accent....

I've just listened to more than ten performances of this song. This is the best.

[JLeeGraham]

Lovely perfornance, as only Bostridge could render. This is the first art song I ever heard...I fell in love with as a child, and it's still a great favourite. It does bother me that a whole measure was cut off the introduction, but other than that, it's flawless. Thanks for posting this!

Plain and simple. THANK YOU!

Gracias por la comunicación NobianKingfHearts,quería comentarle que a Ian Bostrigde,escuche maravillosamente interpretado: WOHIN--AUFENTHALT--das fishermaideren--LINDERBAUM---D­AS LEIER MANN---DER WANDERER----y es una pena que aqui no lo pueda encontrar, un alma sensible,dice como nadie, y su interpretación impecable, yo tengo solo un album " la bella molinera" segun me dijo mi profe de canto,Vamos que Schubert escribio 600.cada una joya tan valiosa como las de Schuman,Brahams.pero él es unico ,

[belcanto24]

la trucha ) en español, bellisimo lieder que enseñado a niños, no lo olvidaran nunca

[NubianKingofHearts]

Thanks Bel for the comment, Kids really do love this song, I agree, they never forget it after hearing it!

[harpsichordgal]

Wow! Lieder that's actually easy to listen to.

[pedroripper]

The singular form is actually "Lied",  but agreed, very easy to listen to piece...unlike some of the stuff out there.

[harpsichordgal]

Some of it can be very dry and deathly depending on the singer.

[johnknolle]

That´s awesome!!! I like his voice!!!

[NubianKingofHearts]

He is one of the best! Thanks for the comment!

[classicfairy]

Bravo! Very nice voice! Thank you for posting this.

[NubianKingofHearts]

You are most welcome, glad you enjoyed it!

[NubianKingofHearts]

Thanks for the post I absolutely agree!!

[cmphantom]

I saw him at Spivey Hall and was blown away by not only his vocal talent, but his interpretive and acting abilities. The recording from that night is absolutely magical. I have also turned pages for Julius Drake while he was accompanying another singer, and he is amazing as well

[NubianKingofHearts]

Hey Cmp, You are so lucky I live not far from Atlanta but have yet to see anywhere in the country he is giving a recital in the upcoming year. I would love to see him live. Thanks for the post!

[cmphantom]

If you like him, you should look at Spivey's new concert series. It's only about 10 minutes away from the airport, and totally worth it. I'm a stage manager and a student there, so if you're dubious I could get you in for free your first time.

[NubianKingofHearts]

If Ian is ever there again I will hold you to that, I wouldn't even mind paying! I looked at the calendar yesterday and if he's got a recital scheduled there soon it's not listed on the Spivey Hall website. Thanks for the offer, I really appreciate it!

[efraingonzalez]

grate tenor! i do not know him, shame! grate grate!

[NubianKingofHearts]

Look him up,He has some fantastic music collections out there! Ian Bostridge!

[francobelgianschool]

great!more videos!more videos!I like his voice,very special!

[ligidora]

Gorgeous diction and clarity, both Bostridge and his accompanist. The crispness of Bostridge's interpretation offers an interesting contrast to the more traditional performances, particularly the syrupy German singers like Prey.

[NubianKingofHearts]

Agreed! Thanks for the Comment!

[walshamite]

The excellent accompanist is Julius Drake, who also accompanies with crispness and sonority on IB's "English Songbook" album; highly recommended.

[ligidora]

Thanks for the info; I shall look for this recording. Listening to "Die Forelle" again I'm once more touched by Bostridge's purity of interpretation. This is such an easy song to wallow in and he so beautifully avoids that.

[wenarto]

a great interpretation

[NubianKingofHearts]

Yeah I have grown to love this mans voice! He is simply fantastic! Thanks for the comment!
