so siehts nämlich aus...die Weisheiten die er hier weitergibt sind echt nicht neu, aber er erzählt sie gut

[ekonvollm]

Das ist nahezu unglaubliche Kunst! Wunderschön, wie Du diese Interpretation bebilderst. Danke Karen!

Slow compared to Wunderlich's version ("ich grolle nicht). Does anyone know what is the tempo indicated on the sheet music? Thank you.

[Zaniah87]

@minasgekos Looking at the music right now, it's: "Nicht zu schnell". Not too fast, by my reckoning.

[minasgekos]

@Zaniah87 Yes it's "not to fast" indeed. So apparently DFD is right in his performance. I still prefer Wunderlich's version though :)

[Zaniah87]

@minasgekos I like Wunderlich's version, but it's so difficult singing that A at his tempo.  With DFD's, I can at least stay up there for a second. ;)

Wow!

This are indeed fantastic renditions and justification of the status Mr. Fischer-Dieskau has. Thanks again so much for posting!

[riverhouse2007]

Beautiful - and a good, clear recording too. Thank you.

Oh, this voice makes me melt!...

Who is the artist who painted the paintings in the "Ein Jüngling liebt ein Mädchen" segment? They're beautiful!

[FiDiTanzer528]

The artist is Georg Mühlberg (1863-1925), painter and illustrator. I ran across a website of his work quite by accident. I agree, they are wonderful.

[LordRandallFan]

Thanks!

Are you a special effect artist by profession Karen? Your videos are much better than the commercially produced videos and those that come on TV. You are a real artist. Thanks for all the wonderfful videos.

[megansspark]

beautiful images, and loved the effects.. the spiraling was very effective! eager for more :)

[saiserieht]

I haven't yet had the time to listen to the complete cycle, I will do this as soon as possible. His 'Ich grolle nicht' is fantastic. Thanks so much for posting, the young Fischer-Dieskau is fabulous!

[FiDiTanzer528]

Yes, I LOVE this performance of "Ich grolle nicht". That high note made me jump out of my chair! haha! Sorry I don't have the complete cycle up yet, Martin. Sometime this weekend though, the last two videos will be done. I don't have much time during the week.

[oakroom48]

My personal favorites are the paintings of Schumann and then, is it Heine? Really, Karen. You have outdone even yourself! I could not take my eyes nor ears off this either. How did Schumann come up with these songs??!! Phenomenal. And the performances are, quite simply, unforgettable. Thanks yet again:)

[FiDiTanzer528]

The painting of Schumann is supposed to be him composing Dichterliebe. Yes, that was my favorite portrait of Heine that I used. What a face!

[oakroom48]

I think my favorite poet -b xx

[Glenmed]

So many to choose from here. I think I am the man at the end who missed out with the ladies - but he seems to be stepping away from it happily with his hat in the air!

Karen, you have a supply of wonderful pictures for every mood and occasion. You are the Michelangelo of YouTube.

[FiDiTanzer528]

Michelangelo? Moi? Seriously though, finding just the right picture is maybe the most difficult part of making these. It takes hours sometimes to search. Still trying to complete the last two videos. Too bad I have to work! :)

[mozartiikodesu]
