Richard Strauss, Jessye Norman, Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, Kurt Masur - Vier Letzte Lieder 6 Orchesterlieder
Review by Jakob Wedemeyer
The album Vier Letzte Lieder 6 Orchesterlieder by Richard Strauss, Jessye Norman, Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, Kurt Masur is a masterpiece of classical music. The album features some of the most beautiful and haunting pieces of music ever written, performed by some of the most talented musicians in the world.
Jessye Norman's performance on this album is simply breathtaking. Her voice is powerful and emotional, and she brings a depth of feeling to each of the pieces that is truly remarkable. The Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, under the direction of Kurt Masur, provides a lush and rich orchestral accompaniment that perfectly complements Norman's vocals.
The album opens with the four last songs of Richard Strauss, which are some of the most beautiful and poignant pieces of music ever written. Norman's performance of these songs is simply stunning, and her voice soars above the orchestra with effortless grace and beauty.
The album also features six orchestral songs by Strauss, which are equally impressive. The orchestral arrangements are rich and complex, and the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig brings out the full depth and beauty of the music.

Summary by Jakob Wedemeyer
Comments
This recording echoes through the hallways of eternity. On the darkest days or the brightest I shall devour this song in my heart. Thank you Lady Jessye. ;)
Bunun türkçeye de çevrilmiş sözlerini rica etsem bir paylaşa bilirmi burada ilkin bu tarz müziği dinliyorum ama merak ediyorum ne anlatığını ??❤??
Die beste Interpretation der Strauß Lieder, die es jemals gab. Sogar Elisabeth Schwarzkopf wird an die Wand gesungen.
Mit die beste Aufnahme !
A definitive interpretation for the ages. Always tears when I listen to ‘September,’ with its angelic tender ending. Strauss would have been proud, Ms. Norman earned her accolades.
..új találkozás… mindenki itt van velem… együtt hallgatjuk a csodát… amíg hallgatom, együtt repülünk a csillag úton…. hallom… hallom… hallom
