It's great to see this and hear both how far this piece came when he's done it in later years, as well as his amazing, if very different, interpretation then.
His German pronounciation is really good here,sounds more "natural" than years ago where his "Erlkönig" was nearly not to understand. Although I like him and his singing, it sounds to me that he is barking some phrase instead of singing.Nevertheless one of my favorites in opera music.
Always a good sound but I find the whole a bit studied. The dynamics and tempi seem more driven by a need to vary or impress than a genuine response to the text.
Nein, weil "Kind" reimt sich mit "sind" - das ist gerade bei Heine von Bedeutung (er reimt sonst oft Verse 1 - 3 nicht). Aber der wunderbaren Interpretation von Bryn Terfel tut das keinen Abbruch, einverstanden.
the best performance of this lied
Finally someone who thinks about the ending!
Bryn Terfel is amazing.
I will be performing this piece later this semester for my jury. This is my favorite version so far, Bryn Terfel is excellent!
How did it go?

Qualsiasi elogio non basterebbe ad esprimere la meraviglia di questa interpretazione.
Maravilloso!!!
Excellent.

Was schert mich WEIB, was schert mich KIND... :)
@hotshot8917 Try Richard Tauber singing this one, he's my favourite =)
Melomane41 Excellent comment. I fully agree. Love Terfel but Martineau has to work hard to follow him in this case (a bit too much...)
sing!!!
Ich denke, so hätte Schumann das nie gespielt.
@MrHomerum Yes he said Weib and Kind in the wrong order!

Ist doch egal :)

is it just me to see his lips movement inconsistent with his voice?
Не надо лезть в Россию, и будете живы. Нет, вам все неймется..
He sounds un natural. Too much un necessary dynamics. The ending of words are too strong and long. Un natural.
A great artist but almost too intellectual and self-conscious by comparison with Hans Hotter, for example.
