- Diana DAMRAU, Strauss: Lieder
Album available here: bit.ly/Strauss-...
"This is a performance of transcendent art" proclaimed Opera News on hearing Diana Damrau's interpretation of Strauss' Zerbinetta on her last album, 'Coloraturas'. In this collection of Strauss songs, recorded in the composer's hometown, she is joined by the Munich Philharmonic and Christian Thielemann, the leading German conductor of his generation.
Soprano Diana Damrau, described by The Sunday Times as "the most dazzling star to have emerged from Germany in recent years" was born in Bavaria. The region's capital, Munich, was the birthplace of Richard Strauss, and in March 2009 a programme of the composer's songs was presented at the city's Gasteig Philharmonie, with Damrau accompanied by the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra under its Chief Conductor, Christian Thielemann.
"Strauss loved female voices," says Damrau, "and he explores some extreme possibilities in these many-layered songs, each with its different point of view. Sensitivity to the words is vital to telling the story of each song, to capturing the rapid changes of mood and all the colours."
Strauss' operatic roles for lyric-coloratura soprano, notably Zerbinetta (Ariadne auf Naxos), Aithra (Die Aegyptische Helena) and Sophie (Der Rosenkavalier) have played an important role in Damrau's career.
On the new CD, favourites such as 'Ständchen', 'Wiegenlied', 'Allerseelen', 'Cäcilie' and 'Zueignung' feature alongside more rarely heard numbers, and six tracks recorded under studio conditions now complement the sixteen songs captured live.

This woman is amazing! I can't believe I JUST found out about her. Obviously she has fantastic technique, but she feels every word she's singing, and everything just comes alive.
Richard Strauss is so darn underrated
Masterful interpretation and execution!!!! Brava!!
Fabulous! As always
Amazing!
she has a huge voice!
this is not easy music to sing at all and she knocks it out of the park
great !!!
It doesn't get much better than this -- most sopranos omit the "Lied der Frauen" if they sing the Brentano Lieder.
Wow.
Brava!
I love her and this interpretation!!!! I found one tiny mistake though...at 1:04 she sings an Fb5(E5). In the score it's just F5. Not saying I'm perfect though...I love her voice!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope to be able to perform it like this one day!
@sfkcbf If you are able to control the vibrato then probably is because of an incorrect technique. I am an Opera student myself and I can say that it comes in a natural way and trying to control it would ruin the whole idea. Depending on the tessitura and the colour of the voice the vibrato can turn heavier or lighter, many other stuff can affect it directly.
@sfkcbf The vibrato is supposed to be natural, depending on the type of voice it can be heavier or lighter... but it is what it is, it comes out alone and it's not something that you can control.
Waouh !!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🎩
The way she waves her hand is funny! haha
名品
A singer often has told me that her voice coach told her that a very heavy vibrato is to be avoided. Apparently, heavy vibrato is so common now (especially on high, loud notes) that most people have become inured to it and no longer think of it as flawed singing.
op.68は名品揃い
オペラ全体で１番盛り上がる場面のアリアみたい
ドラマチック
@anamad05 With the louder, more dramatic operas of the last century, heavier vibrato became noticeable & "acceptable." I know of opera students & choirboys who have been instructed to add greater vibrato for "more color" because their voices are "too focused." So apparently, vibrato can, to some extent, be controlled. Perhaps a singer with such a heavy vibrato that is turns into a warble just does not have a very good natural voice. Also, sliding into notes or missing them simply is poor tech.
@sfkcbf Instructing voice students to "add vibrato" is bad teaching. You can indeed get a "false vibrato", but it's fugly as a solo voice and highly damaging to the vocal mechanism (as many vocal students who have been the victim of poor teaching have found out to their costs). It's not an uncommon mistake, but it's a mistake none the less.
