Lovely, lovely. I just adore the hooty, dark color of german mezzo and sop. voices. you can hear that in Schwartzkopf at times--and it's alwa

ys wonderful when she uses the color. Christa Ludwig--is at the top of the heap!

Beautifully done. Tonight, I decided to go through my old German Lieder book and learn a song and this is what it opened up to. Cool. YAY Mezzo Sopranos!

Ahh, this brings back memories: I sang this at a county, and later on, state competition. I still remember one comment: You are really a soprano (I sang mezzosoprano cuz I was afraid my voice would crack when I tried to hit the high notes;-)

Also: Nice rendition:-)
