Also, who is the marvelous violinist? It is shocking to me that most of the time the identity of the sensitive, gifted, and marvelous pianists, violinists, conductors, and orchestras are completely ignored by people uploading vocal videos, as if the singer could exist without any of them!

I am totally, so irretrievably undone by the unbelievable beauty of this....

[bazinotti]

sorry her voice does nothing for me:-(

I believe that he is an accompanist, and Dame Baker is a soloist. For the lieder, the singing part is supposed to be the main part - soloist, and the piano or violin or orchestral arrangement is supposed to be an accompaniment. I don't think this song is an exception. He is a great violinist, but he played like a solist. Like Gerald Moore's book -"Am I too loud?", the accompanist should not be too loud.

@Papermoon2011 He is also a solist, they are equal in this piece. :))

Dame Janet Baker is still alive, which was a bit of a shock to me, as I thought she was a name from the distant past. She's a terrific interviewee too. I can highly recommend Norman Lebrecht's interview with her, presumably on iPlayer.

Beautiful song and performance by Janet Baker. A great violinist, too, except that he played as if he was a solist instead of an accompanist to Ms, Baker.

E domani il sole splenderà di nuovo e sulla strada per andare io, ci darà i più fortunati, ha di nuovo uno sonnentatmenden mezzo di questa terra ... e per la spiaggia, il grande, blu pesato, si scende lentamente e silenziosamente, in silenzio, ci guardiamo negli occhi, e cade su di noi il silenzio muto di felicità ... J. Baker canta "sulla strada vedrò." Ha senso pure. Ora, non ho wright questo in giù per il vostro compito, ma per il cuore

[Brunnhilde66]

She sings this sooooo beautifully!

[hellbergkerstin]

Alte Aufnahme aber hörenswert!

[levieuxpiano]

Magnifique, au niveau des meilleures dans ce lied où tant de célèbres cantatrices croient qu'un son piano et deux portamenti tiennent lieu d'âme..

I believe the violinist is a young Kenneth Sillito
