- Bass-baritone Thomas Quasthoff is one of the world's leading lieder and oratorio singers. A victim of Thalidomide, he does not take on operatic roles. Much of this programme is devoted to footage of Quasthoff in rehearsal and performance. He is seen meticulously preparing for a recording of Schubert songs; working with composer Aribert Reimann on a particularly difficult piece, written specially for him; and singing music by Bach, Brahms, Mahler and Loewe. Thoughtful, intelligent and charming, Quasthoff also talks about his life, his career and his plans for the future.

And he’s also such a funny and entertaining guy 😂 I met him once in a pub in Hannover.
His autobiography is really great. The funniest part is when he was invited with a couple of other young promising artists to perform on a cruise 🚢 ship. He and the other musicians partied hard every night 😂 Except one, young pianist Evgeni Kissin. His mother and his piano teacher followed him everywhere and he wasn‘t allowed to do anything but eat and sleep and play the piano. So Thomas and one other guy made a plan, they kidnapped Evgeni and took him to one of the bars on the ship to let him have some fun. 😊
One of the most beautiful voices that I have ever heard in my life! Wow!
P,
I love to watch his face. The expressiveness and joy in what he is doing. His beautiful voice is enthralling.
A Musician is the man first . He has it all and had the ear and intelligence to give and create rolls in leader and oratorio ! His masterclasses and interviews tell all of us what we need to live and for life !He is full of life and questioning curiosity , passion . His first teacher said at 13 it was obvious "he was music "
What God took away from him, he gave back to him in this wonderful voice , mind and heartr
Fue por la Talidomina. No el Supremo. Quizás ya sabes qué es eso?
I discovered this amazing talent many years ago completely by happenstance. Thank God for happenstance. His total control is awe inspiring. Beautiful voice.
Amazing story about how if you never give up, try hard you can achieve goals that people laugh at.
What a brilliantly talented vocalist & a great human being! Total respect for you, Herr Quasthoff!
How wonderful that his parents had the resources to give him the instruction he needed to groom that voice. Thank you for the documentary.
Lo descubrí recién ayer. Me ha dejado impactada .Su voz ,su personalidad ,la voluntad de toda su vida. Lo admiro y pido bendiciones para él.
He is so fantastic! I love his voice!
Absolutely wonderful, and the most enchanting and sentimental voice I ever heard.
I was amazed by his incredible voice. Frankly, it sounds attractive.
sahi mi?
The warmth that Thomas expresses, his "humanness" ... Thanks Thomas for being! (solten Sie dieses je zu lesen bringen!)
Geschätzter Herr Quasthoff mir wurde als Kontergankind Uch eine schöne Stimme geschenkt, so ist es mir doch möglich trotz meiner Einschränkungen den Menschen (und mir) Freude zu schenken. Nur habe ich nieee Selbstvertrauen gefunden und bin froh mit ihnen zu sehen dass es auch anders geht. Bravo und Bewunderung für ihren Lebensweg, mit freundlichen Grüssen Ruedi Bossert
Wonderful singer! Excellent production. Thanks.
What a beautiful music and his voice! Schubert was a great composer!,,the pianist incredible!
A 2. Az Erlkönig! Micsoda drámaiság! Először Polgár Lászlótól hallottam, s nem tudtam - miről szól, csak éreztem hogy a Remény csap össze a Reménytelenséggel... Kevesen tudják ezt közvetíteni igazán. Ő TUDJA! BRAVISSIMO.
A humbling, inspiring, goose-bumps-creating documentary.
Danke! Ich höre ihn sehr gerne!
The smoothest voice on earth.
Yes, well said
So eine wunderbare Stimme!
Selbst wenn er spricht ist seine Stimme einfach unvergleichlich schön. Ich habe gestern ein Hörspiel von ihm gehört, das war wundervoll
Like many in the US, my first experience with him was via the 60 Minutes piece long ago. I was absolutely awestruck, and that finale had me tears. Such immense power and control and beauty. I've carried those moments with me ever since. I wish I knew that piece he was singing. Why on earth won't CBS do the right thing and post it here? What's to be gained or lost by stashing it away in a vault?
Eine grossartige Dokumentation.Es lernt uns reichlich viel von Entwicklung einer grossen Begabung und von einem erstaunlichen Durchsetsungsvermögen.Unvergessliche Interpretationen hat es uns gegeben.
WOW! Beautiful voice!!!
Прекрасный немецкий певец! Неверояная выразительность пения, передача музыкальных образов ставит его на мой взгляд в ряд с таким известным певцом, как Фишер=Дискау. Всегда с огромным удовольствием слушаю и смотрю фильмы и записи концертов Томаса Квастхофа.
Безусловно он один из сильнейших баритонов мира
What a wonderful voice, Mr Quasthoff !
Muy hermosa voz y qué ejemplo para la humanidad!!!!
What a powerful voice he has!
Es adictiva su preciosa y envolvente voz !!! 😢😢😢
A friend who coached with him told me one day he launched into Tamino's aria and sang the whole thing 'in tono' like a lyric tenor.
Who is your friend?
@@EmilyGloeggler7984 He wouldn’t mind me saying. A very fine baritone active now in early music, Sumner Thompson. You should check out his CZcams clips. Quasthoff also helped make him into a beautiful Lieder singer.
Maravilloso.Una voz excepcional.Un ser humano excepcional.
Perfect voice and intelligent singing with utmost artistry to amaze us in listening pleasure. Thank you Maestro !
Thank you so much for this!
What a beautiful voice !
-- Un destin hors du commun, l'une des plus grandes voix du répertoire Romantique, et notamment Schubert dont il est devenu une référence, son Winterreise a accompagné nombres de mes nuits. Très bon documentaire. Merci pour le partage. --
Magnifique
Thank you!
Amazing
Beautiful voice,gifted musician,and fabulous teacher.he also has a live and joy of life and a great sense of humour🎶🎵
Wonderful man. Wonderful Bass/baritone-up there with Fischer Discau
Schönste Bariton Stimme
A very beautiful voice! I sent today some of his videos to one my friends and he commented that Thomas has a voice that's usual for a man that is 2 meters tall.
Un ejemplo de vida y un artista excepcional.
23:14 --- That was amazing.

ME HACE REIR, ME HACE LLORAR, ESO ES EMOCIÓN!!
Brillantissime!
4:42 - 8:45 Er wechselt die Rollen so präzise! Der todkranke Sohn, der angstvoll-besorgte Vater (welcher dennoch trösten möchte) und der gefährliche Verführer Erlkönig. Phantastisch!
Hats off, Tom
CUANDO CANTA ÓPERA, LO AMO !!!
CUANDO CANTA BLUES Y JAZZ, LO ADORO !!!
🤭🤭🤭🤭🤫🤫😚😘
Una sola palabra: ADMIRABLE
A hero for us there’s with disabilities to look up to.
COME SI CHIAMA L ULTIMA CANZONE
I think he's as good as Terfel.......my favorite! Fantastic talent.
?
WIE HEIS DIE SINGEN?
Can someone tell me why German singers sing in such a deep and uneven voice?
I wouldn't call him a "victim" in any regard. Please be conscious of the language used in the description. People with disabilities are not victims.
O yes, Thalidomide harmed him very strongly, and made his life very difficult in many aspects, as he himself recognizes. So, he is a victim of Thalidomide, as many, thousands of other people were, even many of them died due to this special disease, Thousand of children dead due to this harm there would be considered victims, or not? This makes his life even more valuable and should lead people to respect and appreciate even more his life and achievements. The consideration and protection devoted to people with disabilities should not lead to deny reality, because it is completely useless
I'm sure to You ALL the aborted children in the world are no victims either!!!???
The piano is MUCH TOO LOUD. What a shame.!!!
COME SI CHIAMA L ULTIMA CANZONE
