Und morgen wird die Sonne wieder scheinen,
und auf dem Wege, den ich gehen werde,
wird uns, die Glücklichen, sie wieder einen
inmitten dieser sonnenatmenden Erde
Und zu dem Strand, dem weiten, wogenblauen,
werden wir still und langsam niedersteigen,
stumm werden wir uns in die Augen schauen,
und auf uns sinkt des Glückes stummes Schweigen

@Stingerfyle i'm sorry but i have to say that this is a very strange and stupid comment The magic of Strauss' music is precisely that you don't need to be German or anything else to get it....having a warm heart is just about enough

I feel that the violin is too strong during the vocal. Of those interpretations I've listened to I prefer Jessye Norman's superior interpretation.

He seems to basically miss the emotion in the piece. Domingo may be more about true notes and gusto, as in "Granada" where he excels. Yes, Wunderlich, etc. are meant for this piece, and it for them. Thank you for posting this though.

@moleskine111 I know...
But think about my comment as a metaphore...
Aria > Strauss lieder
Plácido > singer of Strauss lieder

This is not an aria!
Poor rendition, very vulgar. Wrong Domingo. He should respect this delicated jewel from R. Strauss. Listen to many truly great artist in this song: Richard Tauber, Peter Anders, John McCormack, Jussi Bjoerling, Fritz Wunderlich. We say in spanish: zapatero a tus zapatos. In english: each to his own. The problem is: What is Domingos's his own?

Thank you very much for this beautiful moment. I am looking for a bit of inspiration as thinking of making a video with Pláci singing in German. And I will check the Wunderlich version straight away. One can learn so many things on YT ;-)

Not very authentic... Has to be sung by a German singer. Listen to Fritz Wunderlich for a great example
