  • Well, don't know what to communicate here, except TX, & how does Tauber have this control of the mezza-voce--you usually go back to the "teacher" or coach--Can anyone tell me?

  • @nancywilken HE WAS FAMPUS FOR HIS BEAUTIFYUL PIANNINSO NOTES, USED TO GREAT EFFECT IN SUCH SONGS AS THIS, LISTEN TO THE FOLLOWING-"BIRD SONGS AT EVENTIDE, A MUCH BETTE SONG FOR HUGH BITES.

  • This is one of the most beautiful English [actually American] Ballads Tauber recorded. It is notable for the sustained mezza-voce singing throughout. Hear how he starts the long final note softly, swells to a mezzo-forte, and then gradually diminishes the tone to a ravishing pianissimo at the end.

  • Never tire of listening he had perfect control never went beyond his range, I often after meeting him, during the war, wonder how I have lived all these years and he died so soon after the war. A great loss. MY records of him I left in London. Thanks to you he will be long remembered

  • What a voice such beauty such control.A real joy.

  • The best rendition of that song!

  • Very Nice!  Thanks for posting.

  • Quisiera agregar a lo muy bien dicho por saltburner, un detalle: como modula 'Sylvia' (1.56..), ..¡ es un hombre que está evocando la mujer que amó¡

    He escuchado esta canción por Bjoerling , John Charles Thomas y Richard Crooks, entre otros, , y todos cantan el nombre ' Sylvia' en ese momento perfuntoriamente...Tauber - y ése es su sello : siempre ( o casi siempre), da un toque personal a lo que interpreta .
