The original sheet music is on imslp. I believe DH transposed it two semitones down, both here and at the other concert (1990). I may be wrong, though... Anybody more sure?
Unbelievably beautiful frufruJ, music and singing ! Thx a lot!
Dmitri Hvorostovsky is the Fischer-Dieskau of the russian lieder! Both great great great baritones needs that their legacy be preserved for the benefit of mankind. I always say: Hvorostovsky is greater than we can now realize---KRegards---Luiz Augusto

Actaually, the pianist's right name is Ivari Ilja, not Ilya

Depends on the way you transcribe it to English - as "j" is often read as "дж" in English.

Fantastic! I really need this song's sheet music as sung by Dmitri (I believe in D Flat). If anyone can scan it and send it please PM me.

*An octave* AND two semitones, of course :-)

@frufruJ Written "for Tenor" according to Rachmaninoff. Not that it matters much, but it was not a specifically somprano song.
