Uploaded by operazaile on Jan 21, 2010
Franz Liszt (1811-1886)
"Oh! quand je dors", G 282 (Victor Hugo, 1802-1885)
Thomas Hampson, baritone.
Geoffrey Parsons, piano.
1993.
Oh! quand je dors, viens auprès de ma couche,
comme à Pétrarque apparaissait Laura,
Et qu'en passant ton haleine me touche... Soudain ma bouche S'entrouvrira!
Sur mon front morne où peut-être s'achève
Un songe noir qui trop longtemps dura,
Que ton regard comme un astre se lève... Et soudain mon rêve Rayonnera!
Puis sur ma lèvre où voltige une flamme,
Éclair d'amour que Dieu même épura,
Pose un baiser, et d'ange deviens femme... Soudain mon âme S'éveillera!

Mr. Hampson, a superb Liszt interpreter, just sang the world premiere of a cycle of 5 songs in February 2011, inspired by Liszt's Petrarch Sonnets. The American Liszt Society, honoring the Liszt Bicentennial, commissioned William Bolcom to write a cycle using texts of 5 Petrarch Sonnets. The result, "Laura Sonnets," was superbly premiered by Mr. Hampson and pianist Craig Rutenberg at the 2011 American Liszt Society Festival at the University of Georgia, Athens. Let us hope for a CD of it soon!

Truly something special. Again, an amazing collaboration and fusion of the proper artists with the perfect song for their talents. Bravo . One of Tom's teachers, Martial Singher would probably refer to him now as a "Beautiful Monster." Mere mortals don't ever get close to this sort of perfection.
