As part of The Song Continues, young singers are mentored by one of the most significant and distinguished mezzo-sopranos of the 20th century, Christa Ludwig. Observe this public master class, part of Marilyn Horne's celebration of the art of song.
It is a mystery: why do I feel so happy when I see/hear Christa Ludwig? I smile even when she sings sad songs. Even though I never met or knew her in person. She is now gone forever. She'll never know how much I love(d) her.
Ludwig is just brilliant. I just adore her forthrightness, she gets results. Yodzis has a stunning voice - a Sieglinde in the making. Yodzis would be wise to study some roles with Ludwig!
@J. K. No such thing. The first Tristan was twenty-nine.
What a wondeful voice this young singer has! I wish her all the best. What a great encounter with the colossal Christa Ludwig!
Christa is very firm in expectations and blunt with corrections but the hand holding is so encouraging
Apart from bWEeing an outstanding mezzo I'm in awe of Frau Ludwig's command of English, a language she hardly ever sang. Great woman.
Christa Ludwig ist wunderbar!
Promising young singer with a great voice, but needs a LOT of expression and musicality from experience, as well as a really clear understanding of all the phrasing and German poetry. What a wonderful chance to have this class with the great Christa Ludwig!!
Wow the student did a good job despite her nerves, I would be scared out of my mind to sing for Christa Ludwig!
I like the way Ludwig also pays close attention to the pianist.
Je länger ich auf Christa Ludwig höre, desto mehr bin ich in sie verliebt!
This is one of the best master class segments I've ever seen, by one of the wisest Mahler performers in the world. A gorgeous, haunting song with almost everything left to be brought out of it yet -- and the girl's voice is really a wonderful instrument.
Mahler never seemed to me such a deep and amazing composer! Thanks Christa Ludwig!
the more you listen to Mahler, the more you will realize he is the DEEPEST. listen to Ruckert lieder
I still can't understand why I enjoy watching Mrs. Ludwigs master classes this much as a violinist who can't sing the smallest bit but I just do.
Gesangsunterricht/Interpretation vom Feinsten!!! - Was für ein glücklicher Moment!
Ludwig is a goddess!
At her “leise, leise”, I got goosebumps! Brava and how lucky she got that wonderful chance working with one of the greatest artist lyrical world!
I've seen a couple of master classes in live performance. They must be the most intimidating thing in the world. Christa Ludwig, despite her grandmotherly mien, pulls no punches...and improves what was already an excellent performance. I had no idea her English was so good. I'm writing this in July 2018; the great lady turned 90 in March.
try Schwarzkopf for terror.
Please do everybody a favour in honour from Christa Ludwig, there must be more masterclasses from her to share. Very beautiful and interesting. She is so inspiring.
Very inspiring!
What a great lady!
I was there at this class, it was terrific as you can see
Christa Ludwig and Marilyn Horne are master teachers you could be glad to have at studying German Lieder esp. Mahler and R. Strauss.
she is so right! she can express what listeners are feeling and that's such a great talent!
you have SUCH a gorgeous voice, Diana! wow. I'd love to hear where your voice is now :)
Oh my God, what a voice! One of these rare, rare voice that you can be sure are not just able to carry Wagner - they are made for it.
Fantastic video! Thank you
Nice voice! Nice voice! hope we hear more from you. It is now the year 2020, where are you?
Incredible video. Frau Ludwig is extraordinary and the singer is quite stunning. It’s so important how a deeper understanding of the language is crucial to all this.
Bellissima voce!
So much is so marvelous about this and just as much has yet to be worked on. Christa Ludwig wisely tackles only certain issues here - however in the longrun the problem of real legato will have to be addressed. Elisabeth Schwarzkopf would have been very harsh on young Diana Yodzis for thoroughly breaking up every single legato with those tricky silent "h"s, creating steps and bumps in the musical phrase.
I am ruined for most performances of this song by the old record by Ludwig with Bernstein.
Oh Christa, Du fehlst so sehr.
Diana Yodzis, what about her career?
Christa Ludwig at age 86. Very energetic.
She's "always breathing" because she doesn't know linguistically where to beak the phrasing. Her own teacher should either clue her in to how German works or get her a coach.
Sometimes I think nobody has really explained never content nor what she really sings.
Wie mir diese Mekerin auf den Wecker geht!
Brava

Mme Ludwig est bien patiente de s'intéresser à des élèves dont le niveau est aussi bas...
I cannot believe what I'm reading on here . Ludwig is an appalling teacher . Diana had the perfect tempo yet Ludwig ruined her interpretation with her constant insisting to sing it quicker . Just because she's a great singer doesn't make her a great teacher . Just listen to the tempo and wonderful interpretation of Lucia Popp with Bernstein conducting .
Everyone has their opinions, unfortunately. I think her first tempo fit HER very well.
Christa was an outstanding teacher. This student has a naturally gifted middle voice but she has no low notes and she needs to rush through those low parts cause there is no voice. Christa was in the right according to her development. Also, Christa was the last singer alive who sang together with Callas in the same stage and same recording. If you are on stage with Callas as a soloist you are a very special and gifted singer naturally but not every singer who sang with Callas was also a great technician yet Ludwig was not only a natural gifted BIG voice but also a great technician. Rare combination.
But this is not Lucia Popp and the pianist is not Bernstein. Without proper technique and musicality slow tempo is just a sludgefest and has nothing to do with Mahler. It still has to flow and it doesn't. It also doesn't serve the voice. Thus Ludwig is absolutely right by demanding a more fluent reading of the song.
where is that singer nowadays?
This is not motivating at all… Shame her
What a great lady!
