Jessye Norman - R.Strauss - Wiegenlied

[MrNeilsy]

This is Jessye at her absolute best. The vocal line, ease of tone, breathe control, beauty of tone. Amazing!

I am not a opera music connoisseur, but I do love the sound of some of the classical songs and singers. I really love the warm and deep voice of Jessye Norman for this song. It is so pleasant and easy listening even for someone who is not normally an opera music fan.

Träume, träume, du mein süßes Leben, Von dem Himmel, der die Blumen bringt. Blüten schimmern da, die leben Von dem Lied, das deine Mutter singt. Träume, träume, Knospe meiner Sorgen, Von dem Tage, da die Blume sproß; Von dem hellen Blütenmorgen, Da dein Seelchen sich der Welt erschloß. Träume, träume, Blüte meiner Liebe, Von der stillen, von der heilgen Nacht, Da die Blume seiner Liebe Diese Welt zum Himmel mir gemacht.

I love Jessye Norman's version of this. Her voice is ethereal but earth bound and accessible. Her delivery of emotion comes through clearly and it's no wonder why she is considered the best in her field.

@DinaDare You.ve hit it on straight on ..."accessible...in her delivery of emotion" even for the neophyte opera afficionado. I've always enjoyed her.

the best ever!!!

[leoniemikele]

Unbelievable.

[MastersoftheOpera]

Wow! Jessye Norman is absolutely amazing. This is so beautiful and so moving. She definitely understood the meaning behind the words she is singing. She is the best soprano for the Strauss 4 Last Songs. She has no competition.

@MastersoftheOpera

magnifique version !

[ymonta]

Grand masterpiece!!

[HallucinationLiz]

This is the best version possible. Everything is there - understanding of the music, technique, timbre, perfect understanding and performance of the text. And the feeling of love that Miss Norman so wonderfully delivers to us all.

[swe50]

Almost unreal in beauty. Ms Norman seems unsurpassale in her ability to restrict her prominent voice and gives us the best possible rendition of this masterpiece

[metropolitan1966]

Spectacular! The best, most interesting version imaginable, and certainly light years beyond the competition editions. The control, and tension are unforgettable as much as they are amazing. My favorite Norman vocal.

Beautiful!
