@saltburner2 I agree about the dynamics... But if you look up Gedda singing this on YouTube, there is a live version from 1959 where he sings it exactly the way you describe. He is masterful there.

His vocal control is admirable: but one wishes he had attacked the first note with a softer and more beautiful tone. In the Friedlander Edition, the piano part is marked pp throughout: but there is actually no dynamic marking at all for the voice. I think it is better when sung more softly than Gedda manages here. DFD is the master in this song.

Just a question;
You say that Souzay's rendition is a bleat? (had to look that up)
I can see where it can be heard as that, but to be fair, isn't the song supposed to be sung softly? And don't get me wrong, this rendition is fantastic, but it seems a bit louder than what I've been led to believe is how the song should be sung, unless I'm missing something.

They r masters, ok... Gedda has a beautiful tone.... but what happened to the pianissimo and the "Sehr langsam"? This Nacht und Traume sounds like Schlaflose nacht :I
-
Souzay's bleat ruins it for me, though his tone is gorgeous. I also prefer this piece sung and played in this key - it has a prettier feel for my ears. Gedda sings this so masterfully, although I wish he had started softer. Then again, this is LIVE. Find another live male singing this that can touch it. You won't.

Only Souzay knows this song .

As a baritone, I'm used to hearing this in a lower range, but wow... I'm struck in awe just how good these gentlemen are.
Makes you wish TV had more stuff like this on it nowadays.
Thank you for sharing.
