Thank you so much! From the moment I heard this, more than 30 years ago it has been one of my very favorites. I bought the entire multi-disk LP just to get it. Of course the rest was fabulous too. Unfortunately it is thousands of miles away in a storage locker and alas, I have never found it on CD.
I love Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau!!! So expressive! This song brings tears to my eyes; you can nearly feel the loving emotion Brahms felt for his dear Clara. He saw her as truly beautiful in heart and soul; we feel this in the music and selection of text. I am a die-hard Brahms fan!

Thanks for your comment!
In the videos of Alt Rhapsodie can you see the house of Brahms in Baden-Baden, today a little museum.
