Time passes and this piece remains wonderful, such a joy to listen! What a charming soloist, and the men are so expressive too. I listen to this clip practically every day, never tire of it!
This is by far, bar none, the best and more accurate rendition of this piece I have seen to date. Not only is it, note for note, perfection on every level, it really takes people who know the text to bring it to life. It is frequently done far too slowly, or even with the feel of a march, when the text is very bawdy, bordering on raunchy for the time it was written, a tale of forbidden and secret passion... stealing away to the chamber door of the desired one, quietly tapping, then knocking for entry... sleep not when the passion of love speaks... VERY well preformed with physical expression, watch the interplay between tenor 1 and bass 2... fantastic!
Magistral à tous points de vue ! Le choeur masculin est non seulement capable de la meilleure musique, mais quelle présence et jeu de scène. Une performance non seulement agréable à écouter mais aussi à regarder !
Until seeing this video, Dame Janet Baker's recording has been what I considered the perfect performance of this piece (introduced to it in 1981 and promptly fell in love). My opinion has changed, THIS is the perfect interpretation of Standchen. The emoting of each of the performers elevates the vocal excellence.
I love this piece and have watched clips by several different singers, but this performance was the most captivating and expressive of all! I will watch it many, many times.
Ik heb niet zo lang geleden de muziek van Schubert ontdekt (en zing het zelf ook). Echter naar deze opname luister ik heel vaak, zou het zelf ook wel willen in een koor zoals dat van deze heren. Heerlijk!!!
The intimate approach here is delightful. This enters my pantheon of favorite interpretations of this Biedermeier chestnut, along with those by Alfreda Hodgson, Janet Baker, Sarah Walker, Christa Ludwig, and Bethan Langford. Props to the accompanist ... his introduction was so enchanting, I had a moment of worrying that the rest of the performance might not live up to it. A worry that I'm glad to say was entirely needless.
While I agree that this is a charming performance I find you reference to "Biedermeier chestnut",which in this context means "something (such as a musical piece or a saying) repeated to the point of staleness", jarring. Do you think Winterreise is a chestnut? Beethoven's 9th? All Biedermeier; all performed more frequently than Ständchen, D 920. I'm not looking for a fight, just clarification.
I was using the word as a synonym for "old favorite" ... a connotation suggested by the OED. I wasn't really following Webster. I was thinking too that "chestnut" implies a minor work, not a magnum opus such as the two that you reference.
"Biedermeier chestnut"... c'est l'un des plus purs miracles de la musique, égal en son genre de la Grande Fugue ou du requiem de Mozart, avec un don de vision peut-être encore supérieur... c'est d'ailleurs ce que pensait Beethoven, qui était tombé à la renverse en lisant les partitions de certains lieder; "l'auteur de cette musique-là est meilleur que moi." Une telle musique change la face de l'univers
Her splendid soprano , which is clear and outstanding volume , can be heard across the sea to Japan . So all Japanese will be impressed and shed tears From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun 🇯🇵
To be honest, I personally don't think even the singer believes she is a mezzo-soprano. Most of the "super light mezzo-sopranos" of today had problems in the high register. This singer is lovely indeed, but without any touch of a mezzo. Being a soprano is not a disgrace, but allowing sopranos to swim along in the mezzo fach is. I don't blame the singer but all those who don't realise it and think they are experts.
@@tristanberger8500 My opinion is that the classifications (soprano, mezzo, tenor, baritone, bass-baritone, bass) aren't very helpful. Each individual has a tessitura, along with other vocal qualities that may make their voice more suitable for some musical than for other pieces. I'm happy to let them all try anything they want (including counter-tenors singing in their range - which again varies, also varies in their voice type).
@@annejennings7699 The composers usually knew very well why they cast a piece with which voice and when. Example: If a Queen of the Night is casted by a soubrette, she is simply too harmless for that role. A soubrette has all the notes, but is not dramatic for the part. -
@@annejennings7699 Your attitude , Anne, isn't helpful for any opera and good classical singing. When a woman's voice comes above an orchestra only in the upper register, it is a sure proof that it is a soprano. A true mezzo-soprano retains her colour unaltered in all registers. At what point a voice moves into the lower register to be heard is the decisive guide. This singer looks like a soubrette, sounds like a soubrette, but she lacks the technique to sing as a soubrette-THATS WHY she sings mezzo- how she sings, nature has given her.

I watch it at least as often as you! A miracle

Exactly, other interpretations just mouth the words without grasping their meaning. This one is absolutely superb!
Yes, short moustachio'ed tenor especially precise and lovable
Nah, Vienna Boys' Choir is best.

the chemistry between the voices is fantastic.
L'équilibre entre les voix (et le piano) est parfait. Je pense que Schubert a écrit D920 spécialement pour cet ensemble ! 😉
Beautiful performance ! And Schubert a genius !
I love this particular performance of Standchen so much, I listen to it very often - sometimes several times in one day.

A marvellous rendition, view it twice a day at least
I believe Schubert composed this in a single afternoon. He was like Mozart in the sense that composing came easy.
This song was a commissioned work.

Franz, what perfection. We love you mate
I love this piece and have watched clips by several different singers, but this performance was the most captivating and expressive of all! I will watch it many, many times.
Schubert aurait tellement aimé ! Puisse-t-il vous entendre ...!
Wonderfull, a jewell of a rendition... and such joy to watch.

Vielen Dank für diese großartige Interpretation!
Du hast eine tolle Aussprache, Anna !
Marvellous interpretation! I never tire to listen to it again and again. Bravi tutti!
Really lovely -- my favorite Schubert sublimely done. Bravi tutti.
Yes, terrific fun. What an amazing piece.
Bravo! Bravissimo! Sehr schön ! Muss direkt nach der CD schaun!

Strange suits for these men : the bald guy should have exchanged his too large suit with the young one on his right ... but the music is pleasant

The singing was good, but the choreography for the chorus was terrific!
Guys! Stand still. And get suits that fit!
Their suits were designed by Yves Saint Laurent.
@@stephanvonugron1944 Nice designs yes, but they still didn’t fit.
@@TenorgeigerThey're supposed to be a little uncomfortable, don't you think?
Why do so many sopranos want to sing mezzo ?
a soubrette is not a mezzosoprano....
Not all mezzos have big heavy voices. She's a light fresh mezzo - and she's lovely!
To be honest, I personally don't think even the singer believes she is a mezzo-soprano. Most of the "super light mezzo-sopranos" of today had problems in the high register.
