Absolutely the best. Breath taking.

I'm not surprised, Rita Streich is indeed, absolute coloratura soprano perfection.

When looking in the music encyclopedia for a describtion of the word PERFECTION I found : RITA STREICH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of all the versions I heard there is no doubt she inherits the standard of this song as well as the other Nightingale/Nachtigall. I wonder if she was even able herself to make a better one than this recording!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

j'ai entendu madame Streich un an avant sa mort en recital-cela etait bien triste car il n'y avait plus ses splendides aigus

Lovely tone and exquisite singing. Other fine versions include those of Mabel Garrison, Evelyn Scotney, and...Lily Pons. Thanks for sending and thanks to inca48 for posting.

That's intriguing, I thought it was derived from the Oscar Wilde fairy tale about a nightingale piercing its heart on a rose thorn to appease a love lorn student by turning a white rose red.

I once heard her sing this in a concert and I was dumbfounded. She was as perfect in person as she is on this recording. A truly remarkable voacalise by one of the greatest singers of all time.

It is like a musical instrument, PURE no words just the notes in a voice

[7inga7]

Beautiful song sung by a beautiful angel.

Ao ouvir um anjo como Rita, dobro meus joelhos e agradeço a Deus, pois Ele distribue dons maravilhosos!!
