Cheryl Studer sings Gustav Mahler "Lob des hohen Verstandes"

[SopranoYuHong]

难得也能听到Studer犯错的时候。。。。。。。

[Lactoris1]

I first discovered Cheryl Studer in her wonderful cycle of Schubert nature songs with Irwin Cobb on the piano, including Schiller's Der Klage Ceres - the complaint of agriculture goddess Ceres that her daughter Persephone Spring must spend six months away from her each winter as the bride of Hades in the Unndeworld. Considering that Cheryl was born in the mid-1950s, I am glad to find her voice holding up wonderfully well. She understands Mahler too.

@ Lactoris1  Surely you meant Irwin Gage. In fact, I have uploaded Studer's Klage Ceres. I agree with your assessment and find that she understands Mahler really well, among the many other composers she truly understands. An exceptional singer AND artist.

Quelle joie de réentendre (et en quelle forme!) cette grande artiste! J'avais eu la joie de travailler avec elle à Nice, en 1986, dans une belle production de Daphné de Strauss (dirigée par Berislav Klobucar)...sa scène finale notamment était extraordinairement facile et lumineuse...Merci Scalatti!

too bad she messes up the last few bars...

Hard to consider this a video; unlike Hampson,

she has the advantage of being heard and not seen while she sings. Visually, he is always

at a disadvantage; the facial contortions are

too distracting.

[Scalatti]

The solution to your dilemma is simple: close your eyes and listen.

[jlaurson]

She still sings... that's good to hear.
