  • The opening song from Robert Schumann's masterful song cycle Dichterliebe.
    This performance took place in New York City on April 8th, 2011.
    James Benjamin Rodgers - Tenor
    Jillian Zack - Piano
    Translation:
    In the lovely month of May,
    When all the buds were bursting,
    Then within my heart
    Love broke forth.
    In lovely month of May,
    When the birds all sang,
    Then I confessed to her
    My longing and desire.

    I took a music appreciation class at Pensacola state college a few years back- the professor posted this link as the example for this piece. Still come back regularly because it’s the most beautiful rendition of any song I’ve heard in my entire life.

      Likewise! I am glad to have found a wealth of songs from my music appreciation course. Thanks to it, I found this piece and quite a few other songs from Dichterliebe. This is my favorite performance of the song as well.

    In the beautiful month of May, I professed my love for her. Schumann doesn't let us know her response. Very chilling.

    Im wunderschönen Monat Mai,
    Als alle Knospen sprangen,
    Da ist in meinem Herzen
    Die Liebe aufgegangen.
    Im wunderschönen Monat Mai,
    Als alle Vögel sangen,
    Da hab ich ihr gestanden
    Mein Sehnen und Verlangen.

    My impression is one of a perpetual suspense and stasis; indeed, we begin and end with unresolved dominant chords. This is reflected well in the words, which depicts a longing and a love. To me it seems to say, "how could such a love be truly fulfilled?". It is therefore the love of a romantic ideal, as longed for as it is inaccessible.

    Au mois de mai, quand la lumière
    Voyait tous les bourgeons s’ouvrir,
    L’amour, en sa douceur première,
    Dans mon cœur s’est mis à fleurir.
    Au mois de mai, sous la rainée.
    Tous les oiseaux chantaient en chœur
    Quand j’ai dit à la bien-aimée
    Le tendre secret de mon cœur.

    Da ist die tadschikische Uebersetzung des Gedichtes
    Ҳайнрих Ҳайне
    Дар он моҳе, ки зебову гуворост,
    Ба ҳангоме ки бишкуфта чаманҳо
    Даруни синаам, гӯё банохост,
    Фурӯзон гаштааст ишқи санамҳо.
    Дар он моҳе, ки зебову гуворост,
    Ба ҳангоми сурудхонии мурғон
    Ба ӯ изҳор кардам ишқи худро
    Ва ҳам аз дарди ин қалби парешон.
    Uebersetzung von Fazliddin Odinaev
