Shostakovich : Seven Romances on Verses by Alexander Blok (4.)

[thephantomofthetube]

The city sleeps, cloaked in shadows,

The lights are barely flickering...

There, far away, across the Neva,

'I see the gleam of the dawn.

In that far-off gleam,

In those gleams of flame

Was lurking the awakening

Of sorrowful days for me...'

Da quali abissi di incanto proviene questa musica||| Ho notato perfetta aderenza di strumenti e voce, bellissima voce.
