Schubert - Frühlingstraum (Winterreise-Liederzyklus)

Recorded in a Romanesque chapel in 1993
Francisco Araiza - tenor
Jean Lemaire - piano
Schubert - Letzte Hoffnung (song-cycle "Winterreise")
Only one year before his death, Franz Schubert created his masterpiece, “Winterreise”, a setting of 24 poems by Wilhelm Mueller. The beauty and the tragedy of this work are wonderfully interpreted by the tenor Francisco Araiza and by the pianist Jean Lemaire. They offer us a marvelous interpretation of Schubert’s great song cycle.
The internationally-acclaimed Mexican lied singer Araiza has sung as soloist in leading concert halls and in leading tenor operatic roles in the major opera houses of Europe and North America.
Watch the whole song cycle: • Schubert - Der Leierma...
Lyrics
Ich träumte von bunten Blumen,
So wie sie wohl blühen im Mai;
Ich träumte von grünen Wiesen,
Von lustigem Vogelgeschrei,
Von lustigem Vogelgeschrei.
Und als die Hähne krähten,
Da ward mein Auge wach;
Da war es kalt und finster,
Es schrien die Raben vom Dach.
Doch an den Fensterscheiben,
Wer malte die Blätter da?
Doch an den Fensterscheiben,
Wer malte die Blätter da?
Ihr lacht wohl über den Träumer,
Der Blumen im Winter sah?
Der Blumen im Winter sah?
Ich träumte von Lieb um Liebe,
Von einer schönen Maid,
Von Herzen und von Küssen,
Von Wonne und Seligkeit,
Von Wonne und Seligkeit.
Und als die Hähne krähten,
Da ward mein Herze wach;
Nun sitz' ich hier alleine
Und denke dem Traume nach,
Nun sitz' ich hier alleine
Und denke dem Traume nach.
Die Augen schließ' ich wieder,
Noch schlägt das Herz so warm,
Die Augen schließ' ich wieder,
Noch schlägt das Herz so warm.
Wann grünt ihr Blätter am Fenster?
Wann halt' ich mein Liebchen im Arm?
Wann halt' ich mein Liebchen im Arm?

José Francisco Araiza Andrade (born 4 October 1950), is a Mexican operatic tenor and lied singer who has sung as soloist in leading concert halls and in leading tenor operatic roles in the major opera houses of Europe and North America during the course of a lengthy career. Born in Mexico City, he studied singing at the Conservatorio Nacional de Música de México and later in Germany, with Mozartian tenor Richard Holm, and lieder interpretation with Erik Werba. He made his operatic debut in 1970 in Mexico City as First Prisoner in Beethoven's Fidelio. Araiza initially came to international prominence singing in Mozart and Rossini operas, but in the 1980s broadened his repertoire to include Italian and French lyric tenor roles and Wagnerian roles such as Lohengrin and Walther von Stolzing. He was made a Kammersänger of the Vienna State Opera in 1988. Now retired from the opera stage, he teaches singing and serves on the juries of several international singing competitions.

j'aime l'interprétation et la scénographie ! Danser les mouvements du son m'a donné des frissons. "Je voulais chanter l'amour, l'amour se transformait en douleur. Je voulais chanter la douleur, la douleur se transformait en amour !" Schubert

Amazing!

[@tomasgarcia6849]

I dreamt of bright flowers
that blossom in May;
I dreamt of green meadows
and merry bird-calls.
And when the cocks crowed
my eyes awoke:
it was cold and dark,
ravens cawed from the roof.
But there, on the window panes,
who had painted the leaves?
Are you laughing at the dreamer
who saw flowers in winter?
I dreamt of mutual love,
of a lovely maiden,
of embracing and kissing,
of joy and rapture.
And when the cocks crowed
my heart awoke;
now I sit here alone
and reflect upon my dream.
I close my eyes again,
my heart still beats so warmly.
Leaves on my window, when will you turn green?
When shall I hold my love in my arms?
