Song Lied Mélodie: Youkali (Kurt Weil)

http://songliedmelodie.blogspot.com/2011/02/youkali-kurt-weil.html

Website about Lied, Mélodie, Poetry and Text. Wednesday, February 16, 2011. Teresa Stratas is a beguiling performer and Youkali. Is a song equally as beguiling. This video is an excerpt from the film September Songs: The Music of Kurt Weill. Directed by Larry Weinstein. It creates an atmosphere of nostalgia, sensuality and longing. The poem tells us that Youkali is "in every human heart, the deliverance we await for tomorrow. Youkali is the land of our desires. Posted by Milagro Vargas. Eri già tutta mia...

Song Lied Mélodie: Eri già tutta mia (Monteverdi)

http://songliedmelodie.blogspot.com/2011/02/eri-gia-tutta-mia-monteverdi.html

Website about Lied, Mélodie, Poetry and Text. Sunday, February 13, 2011. Eri già tutta mia (Monteverdi). Just over a year ago, Hugues Cuenod died at the age of 108. I didn't get a chance to post his obituary. At this site. This post is a belated tribute to a great singer. With an angelic, pure toned and unpushed instrument, he sang publicly into his 90's. He was self effacing about his gifts, telling the NY times in 1987, “I never had a voice, so how could I lose one? Here, he sings Eri già tutta mia.

Song Lied Mélodie: Lied von der belebenden Wirkung des Geldes (Eisler)

http://songliedmelodie.blogspot.com/2011/02/lied-von-der-belebenden-wirkung-des.html

Website about Lied, Mélodie, Poetry and Text. Monday, February 14, 2011. Lied von der belebenden Wirkung des Geldes (Eisler). I love it when composers sing their own music, even when or especially. Because they don't have attractive instruments. There's something that always comes through. You can here the essence of the piece. This is one of those rare moments. Hanns Eisler sings his Lied von der belebenden Wirkung des Geldes/ Song of the Invigorating Effects of Money. Und sie kann sehr gastlich werden.

Song Lied Mélodie: Von Ewiger Liebe (Brahms)

http://songliedmelodie.blogspot.com/2011/02/von-ewiger-liebe-brahms.html

Website about Lied, Mélodie, Poetry and Text. Wednesday, February 9, 2011. Von Ewiger Liebe (Brahms). Brahms (1833-1897) wrote 196 art songs. This is one of his masterpieces. It is important to note that the text has been falsely attributed in many additions to Joseph Wenzig. The error was made by Brahms when the piece was published and has been passed down by subsequent editions, but the text is from August Heinrich Hoffman von Falersleben's Gedichte. Von Ewiger Liebe/ Eternal Love. Here's Alexander Kip...

Website about Lied, Mélodie, Poetry and Text. Saturday, February 12, 2011. Mutya ng Pasig (Nicanor Abelardo). This is a beautiful performance by soprano, Mimi Kater and pianist, Christina Yue.
