  • Hallo, in Latinamerica is very usual to change the R for an L, specially among the poor people who didn't go to school. That's why Montsalvatge wrote it compLar - this song is a black woman singing a lullaby to her baby and telling him that if he behaves and sleep, maybe their master will buy him a suit so that he can serve him better, even if they're not slaves anymore... so you see they're very poor people and speek like the poor latinamericans/cubans. Hope I could help you! :)

  • Superb! Berganza has a rare timbre, its smoothness and delicacy is amazing. And her piano singing is the most beautiful of any mezzos ... This song is perfect for her voice and vice-versa. ;-)

  • Una lezione di canto! Stupenda!!

  • Tehere are so many (too many?) postings of this beautiful song on youtube; Teresa Berganza easily tops them all! I adore her!

  • simply exquisite. What beauty and control.

  • Un ejemplo de como se canta.

  • @peteseattle The pianist is Félix Lavilla. He is Teresa Berganza's husband and her accompanist in many of her best recordings, especially of the spanish repertoire.

  • Truly loving! Who is the pianist? He's right up there with her. Simply gorgeous.

  • What a performance of this tender, whimsical lullaby; classical vocalist and pianist do not always successfully pull of 'gentle' as some blast us with the power of their voices. But her, their gift draws us in and makes us listen. Bravi tutti.

  • Tender, poignant and sublimely mesmerizing!  Teresa Berganza was an amazing singer.
