This is one of the most beautiful recordings of all time. Ferrier is so touching and full of courage at the same time. Her voice is captured perfectly. Walter and the Vienna Philharmonic provide clarity and when needed a warm carpet of sound.
Ferrier was unique. There are several books about her, one by her sister, Winifred, and a book of reminisces by Bruno Walter, Benjamin Britten, Gerald Moore etc. She
Your voice is very beautiful. You are a diva. I wish I were young when you were young, because I would have been a great fan from way back. But, for now, I am a new fan. I am always a fan to you. God bless you. Thanks for your voice and gifts. The world must have appreciated you from the time you started your appearances. I wish I could have been there, but thank God I am here while you are still alive, to say Thanks for your beautiful tallent. God bless.

So utterly beautiful-Mahler of course, tapped into the psychology of grief before the psychologists-ie anger, then acceptance.

Interesting thought, bearing in mind that Gustav Mahler lived about at the same time as Sigmund Freud.

Mahler's song cycle Kindertotenlieder (Songs for dead children) is sublime and Kathleen Ferrier is the ultimate singer for Mahler.
All of her recordings are gifts for the listener.
