Good God, this is divine. Hats off in particular to Fleming--she's not performing in the slightest. She's giving us this beautiful text through tone, melody, and inflection. There are many truly exceptional singers out there...but Fleming is one of the greats.
The greats don't always sing every note perfectly; they know it is impossible . It is the intent behind the delivery and their ability to not dwell on whats not working. They, in the moment, give what they have without apologies. Most of the Pro's I've spoken with say that the stage is not the time to think about technique ...I think Fleming is one of the most giving Artist of this Era. If you are thinking about technique while listening, then you aren't living in the moment. Enjoy the moment!!
I used not to like Richard Strauss, but this song has totally won me over. So simple, so heartfelt and a heartrending performance from the great Renee Fleming - though there are other great performances too!
Magnifique... Violoniste virtuose, et une Renée tout en retenue... Sublimissime...Elle savoure ce qu"elle chante, elle savoure la musique qui la guide et l'emporte...Merci merci Renée d'exister et de chanter avec ton coeur. Vous me faites aimer les lieds; aimer l'allemand...C'est dire, pour une latine comme moi !!
Stunning!!! From the first note to the last! I never tire of the lush orchestration accompanying an equally opulent singer - voice, and delivery. Thanks for posting. It never ceases to amaze me that those who criticize Renée continue to listen to (and dig at) every work posted. Your comments say much more about who you are than it does about Renée, who is just about as lovely as you are nasty.
Their is a reason why Renee is critized, it is Renee’s singing or it would not be so. That doesn’t mean that Renee doesn’t have a beautiful voice she does. Some arias Renee sings really well like her song to the moon. Renee’s version of Morgen is sung with great beauty, but some of her vocal mannerisms while here kept to a minimum is still evident, like instead of making a real pinnassimo like the divine Montserrat Caballe, she hits a high note as if she sends it out than makes this strange soung almost like Renee made the note swell than bring it back in, but it doesn’t sound good the way she does it, it is a strange sound, even if Renee’s over all voice is beautiful.
I know this factoid will tick a lot of people off. This poem, set to exquisite music by Strauss, was written by a gay man about the love that dares not speak its name. Deal with it.
I'm gay, and definitely not tic'd off to learn this. That knowledge has just opened up a whole new universe of emotion and meaning for me, with this song that I adored to begin with. Thank you for sharing this!
I bet reactionary Strauss who stayed in Europe though not a collaborator ike Cortot would not have approved of my poor brothers past the end of Weimar Germany ! Im sure few if anyone knew about this poet being gay ! I would love to see some old rench lit books and see how Rimbaud , Verlaine , Baudelaire , Chateaubriand ,Victor Hugo (also an innovator though straight ) are discussed and treated .I've seen old encyclopedias from the 1940's so so very different was learning then !
that woman was blessed with the Voice we all wanted to have in our dreams.. when that Voice gets silenced inside her it will be like she lost her one true Love forever
She has a nice instrument. But she is NOT singing strauss here. Dame Janet Baker gives a lot of voice with supported yet developed pianissimos which is amazing. Fleming is whispering!
I really enjoyed this version of this master peice! Renee us both beautiful to both eyes and ears! Im a kiri te kanawa fan and i really appreciate the differences in both their sound and interpretations of the same peice! Just beautiful!
Wow, so many experts showing their exquisite taste in saying how much better x or y was. Idiots, it is what it is. Pretty sublime, but of course you heard x and y. Enjoy the now.
A short note for the video loader... it's good to allow about 15 seconds for the audiences response. It helps to end the performance...otherwise very good, thankyou.
Imagine hearing this in Vienna on New Years with champagne with Fleming or Jundala G. or for a few hours perhaps Weimar Germany with Schwarzkopf . Had this even been composed that early . I cant believe this came after 1938 bt I think that is so !
@@ettoredipugnar6990 okay who amongst those people do you consider "the greats" some stupud pop artists?! This woman is an icon and I wouldn't listen to anyone else. The greats in my opinion consist of Flemming, Pavarotti, and Jonas Kaufmann❤
it's sad thou comprehensible how mediocre voices like hers are so overrated by mediocre people.. But we are lucky J. Norman, despite not being the standard blondie cliche, could realease recordings and save us from mediocrity
these opera singers are so underpaid renee fleming is excellent why is taylor swift and madonna so overpaid and there talent is not even up to par with real singers who sing this art.???
Much as I generally admire this artiste, on this occasion I find her interpretation of this immensely beautiful song far from pleasing. I abandoned her after the first phrase in which she made no attempt to follow the score's marking, which instructs that it should be sung >"molto tranquillo"...< (In passing, I much prefer the melody to be played by a pianist rather than an orchestra; to my ear the sumptuous prelude, likewise the postlude, suits the solo instrument far, far better.) I've listened to maybe thirty or so recordings of this song and for me the version which stands not simply streets but whole motorway lengths ahead of each and every other offering is the pairing of Dame Janet Baker and Gerald Moore. Matchless. Oh how both of them gloriously wallow in and caress the notes in those opening bars, marked "Langsam". They deliver faithful to the composer's clearly stated wishes. Amazingly, in my perception even Fischer‐Dieskau fails to embrace the spirit of the piece, at any juncture. I'd go as far as to opine that here he sounds dull, I was taken aback at this particular discovery. No, JB and GM absolutely nail it in my book. Textbook exemplary, their achievenent indelibly memorable...
Horrible violin solo... doesn't connect the vibrato between any two notes. Sounds like he drank 10 cups of coffee proir to the concert. Arm vibrato at it's worst.
I don't think much of the violinist on this piece. He doesn't really seem expressive at all. Renee, however, is amazing. She approaches this song with all the tenderness it deserves.
One could die in peace and worry free after listening to this most beautiful melody I’ve ever known.
Good God, this is divine. Hats off in particular to Fleming--she's not performing in the slightest. She's giving us this beautiful text through tone, melody, and inflection. There are many truly exceptional singers out there...but Fleming is one of the greats.
It is uplifting in this world of rapidly declining standards to listen to this and be reminded of what beauty humans are capable of creating
There is an old saying, "you cannot educate pork". Unfortunately someone seems to have opened all the pigpens in the last 10 years.
Beautifully stated.
I come back to this constantly. It’s just so beautiful and always exactly what I need.
Wunderschön gesungen und ganz hervorragende Aussprache. Zum hinschmelzen...

There is no limit to love and beauty. Period.
And so what? Who cares?
Chill man, that's no big deal.
I'd love this for my funeral! Absolutely beautiful!
Are you alive?
that woman was blessed with the Voice we all wanted to have in our dreams.. when that Voice gets silenced inside her it will be like she lost her one true Love forever
LohengrinTh This thought is depressing :P
spenzur
isnt Life?
She has always said that she didnt have it naturally but worked very hard to develop it
Céline Fiszbin No one works hard to achieve a timbre like hers.
She has a nice instrument. But she is NOT singing strauss here. Dame Janet Baker gives a lot of voice with supported yet developed pianissimos which is amazing. Fleming is whispering!
Magnifica canción en la exquisita voz de Renée Fleming..
Of course Fleming is wonderful but that uncredited violinist is also world class - this piece almost becomes a duet between her and the violin.
I really enjoyed this version of this master peice! Renee us both beautiful to both eyes and ears!
Im a kiri te kanawa fan and i really appreciate the differences in both their sound and interpretations of the same peice!
Just beautiful!
To my ears simply fantastic...
Renée Fleming siempre, siempre maravillosa.!!!
Wow, so many experts showing their exquisite taste in saying how much better x or y was. Idiots, it is what it is. Pretty sublime, but of course you heard x and y. Enjoy the now.
There is beauty 😍 and then there is Renee and Morgen...
Love your comment
Absolutamente una Renée Flemimng maravillosa ..¡¡¡¡¡
No credits for the violinist and the harpist?? Tut tut!
and you could've done it better, I presume??
Beautiful... much more than the other renditions of this piece she has on youtube.
A short note for the video loader... it's good to allow about 15 seconds for the audiences response. It helps to end the performance...otherwise very good, thankyou.

""Mañana"" maravillosa interpretación de Renée Fleming.¡¡
The most Heavenly music and singer I have ever heard.
Clean your ears out.
Ive he !ard the greats . Shes horrible
Richard Guglielmi sorry... she's great.

@@ettoredipugnar6990 Be nice to my Nana please.
The violin, just wow😍 such a beautiful piece
Classic performance. I get chills everytime I watch this ♥️
A beautiful piece of singing which is rarely heard. A pity that Classic FM is run by people who know so little about vocal art.
Lovely, music that lifts your heart and goes right to your soul can only be a good thing
Как я люблю её пение! Огромное спасибо..!
RENE'E FLEMING CANTA STRAUSS DIVINAMENTE!!!
I hope to meet my husband again on this blessed shore.
it's sad thou comprehensible how mediocre voices like hers are so overrated by mediocre people.. But we are lucky J. Norman, despite not being the standard blondie cliche, could realease recordings and save us from mediocrity
Endlich mal jemand, der deutsch korrekt ausspricht. Man merkt, dass sie bei der Schwarzkopf Stunden hatte.
Magnificent... Astonishing.. Thank you ver much
Lovely, but go to Elisabeth Schumann to hear the magical JOY of the song.
Sublime !!
these opera singers are so underpaid renee fleming is excellent why is taylor swift and madonna so overpaid and there talent is not even up to par with real singers who sing this art.???
When you wake up in the morning this is the music you love to hear!
I wouldn’t,t bother to wake up EVER mm💕
Yes the Voice must come to Perth, WA. We want to hear her with the Symphony here. Please come, Renee.
👍👍👍👍👍
Perfect. So lovely to the ears and senses.
The mics are for recording not amplification. All the singers you've listed are marvelous. So is she.
gluck, wagner, strauss and .... others ... rene = love
Does any one know the violonist’s name ? I can’t find it...
Much as I generally admire this artiste, on this occasion I find her interpretation of this immensely beautiful song far from pleasing. I abandoned her after the first phrase in which she made no attempt to follow the score's marking, which instructs that it should be sung >"molto tranquillo"...< (In passing, I much prefer the melody to be played by a pianist rather than an orchestra; to my ear the sumptuous prelude, likewise the postlude, suits the solo instrument far, far better.)

Horrible violin solo... doesn't connect the vibrato between any two notes. Sounds like he drank 10 cups of coffee proir to the concert. Arm vibrato at it's worst.
I thought the same when player the vídeo. I was invited to play this solo. I hope the singer does not suppose that O play like the violinist here
Can you play it though....
Oh, listen to this dumber-than-dumb critic.
WUNDERBAR!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💯❤️🙏🏻
가슴 시리도록 아름다운...
maravillosa
Prachtige muziek, door een geweldige zangeres. Lucas
I really prefer a mezzo voice like Baker's or DiDonato's for the melancholy. Fleming is superb. This is just a preference
Then you would love the recorded performance by Jan DeGaetani and Gilbert Kalish. It is exquisite.
@@durhamorama Thankyou! I had not heard it and exquisite it is. So tender. Adored it.
simplemente impresionante.
Edward Elgar and Richard Strauss are sometimes very much alike. Both are sooo beautiful.
Give me the original piano version any day.
Wow so beautiful
There is no peace in that violin vibrato
I feel pity for your soul .....
This is everything.
Bellísima interpretación.!!
superb
Exquisita interpretación.!!!
💞💞💞
Absolutely fantastic!!!!
Simplemente maravillosa.!!
Pues está mujer no tiene rival cantando a Strauss. Única!
Qui Renne Fleming, e insuperabile ....
Pura belleza.!!
Beautiful beautiful beautiful
Exquisite
Gorgeous. And, you would, wouldn't you... I would.
When was this? She looks (and sounds) younger.
Ein Lied ist sehr gut, aber die
Aussprache schlecht.
brava in maniera sconvolgente
this is not horrible, how can you call it horrible?
Gorgeous singing by the gorgeous Renée!!
My god. Beautiful. 🙂
Also, I'd like to see you do it, facil tics... What does that even mean?!
Please , the name of the lead violin ?
Got assigned to sing this song for my college vocal juries. I sing it in April. Honestly, intimidated. So beautiful.
How was it?
@@samuelgebhardt2176 honestly my nerves got in the way, but I got a low A for a grade.

So beautiful!
Germans uninilligable
❤❤❤
One thing is sure: it takes artists of the superior class to sing this.
Beautiful..
Much tot free in interpretation if you ask me.
This is Strauss, the greatest supporter of Wagner's conducting antics.
Perhaps you can share your own rendition of how it should be done.
Thanks
PRECIOSA!!!!💞💞
Гениально!
