Franz Schubert: An Die Musik, D 547 – Felicity Lott

Mittwoch, Februar 22nd, 2012

Franz Schubert: An Die Musik, D 547 Du holde Kunst, in wieviel grauen Stunden, Wo mich des Lebens wilder Kreis umstrickt, Hast du mein Herz zu warmer Lieb entzunden, Hast mich in eine beßre Welt entrückt! Oft hat ein Seufzer, deiner Harf’ entflossen, Ein süßer, heiliger Akkord von dir Den Himmel beßrer Zeiten mir erschlossen, Du holde Kunst, ich danke dir dafür! Translation: O gracious Art, in how many grey hours When life’s fierce orbit encompassed me, Have you kindled my heart to warm love, And charmed me into a better world! Oft has a sigh, issuing from your harp, A sweet, blessed chord of yours, Thrown open the heaven of better times; O gracious Art, for that I thank you!

I’m using this as a piece for a college audition this weekend. I wouldn’t have been able to learn it so well without this video. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I adore this song. I’m going to sing it for my senior recital. I hope I do Schubert some justice!

“wilder Kreis umstrickt” ist grausam, diese Sängerin ist eine Katastrophe.

Is the music is in the key she is singing, or maybe one and a half steps lower?

Das Lied ist der ideale Lackmustest, ob ein Sänger deutsche Romantik versteht. Sie tut es leider überhaupt nicht.

If you really want to listen to the greatest version of this song listen to – Thomas Quasthoff & Andras Schiff perform Schubert (3) its on 7 minute

Not sure what a “true ‘Schubert voice’ is – didn’t think he had that label attached to his Lieder.
This is wonderful and I think his gift was to bring out the very best in the very best singers because his songs are so strong, cope well with (some) transposing and can be interpreted in so many ways.
I love this, love Fritz, worshp Lucia and just adore Christa – all very different singers, with very different voices. Love them all.
