Barbara Bonney: "Morgen!" by Richard Strauss

Richard Strauß (1864-1949)

Morgen!, op. 27, 4 (John Henry Mackay 1864-1933) /Tomorrow!/Demain!/Amanhã!

Barbara Bonney, soprano.
Geoffrey Parsons, piano.



"Und morgen wird die Sonne wieder scheinen
Und auf dem Wege, den ich gehen werde,
Wird uns, die Glücklichen, sie wieder einen,
Inmitten dieser sonnenathmenden 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...
[And to-morrow the sun will shine again
And on the path that I shall take
It will re-unite us, the blessed ones,
In the midst of this world that breathes in the sun...

And to the broad shore, lapped by blue waves,
We shall quietly and slowly climb down,
Silently we shall look into each other's eyes
While upon us descends the silence of true bliss...]

[SingingChirpy]

her morgen makes me cry every time.

[MyStyleIsBlack]

Of all the versions in the world, this, in my opinion, is by far the best.

Barbara, you simply outdo yourself every time. It's heaven. <3

Merci beaucoup pour cette version, vraiment parfaite dans sa douceur ; n'étant pas du tout connaisseur, je découvre aussi la voix de Barbara Bonney.

Je ne reconnais pas le lac de la photo, et je voudrais bien connaître son nom ! Je ne vis que depuis 10 ans à Gan (venant d'Albertville), et il me reste heureusement de beaux endroits à découvrir dans le sud-ouest !

Perfection.

[MaurusBeuron]

This is so touching. And it must be so difficult to sing because you have to watch the timing so much. And Barbara's singing seems to be so light.

[huxylady]

Thank you so much for uploading this. It was the first version of this sublime lieder that I ever heard and, to me, it remains the most beautiful.

[highfidebbity]
