She is terribly talented and underrated as a singer, amazingly versatile. I'm a total fan by now. Between Slapp Happy, Henry Cow and this I've still have had doubts if it's actually the same singer.
I got a CD of Dagmar Krause 20 or so years ago. It was all Brecht songs. In a moment of total stupidity and insanity, I gave it to a friend as a present. Since then I've been looking without success for her info and songs . Thrilling to see this. I hope more of her German songs will be around, too.
i don't know what it is that makes her so unique - i heard her in "in praise of learning", a few years ago, and fell under the spell - then i discovered "art bears", and so on... - she's marvellous !
this is fabulous. i came to it by accident. i saw her perform this at the edin festival. she did the song of the german mother, you could have heard a pin drop. thank you than you , thank you
who's the piano player?

@blefusku I'm afraid I don't know, I'm sure he was the chap accompanying Dagmar on the tour around that time

This is not from 1975, maybe 85!
Very nice to see this

@Godard92 Oops - yes, an obvious typo! when I uploaded it, I'd actually just checked the date from the Krause DVD that I'd made too, doh!
