Live concert "Masters of Song", Bavarian National Museum, Munich (Germany) February 21, 2013
Ensemble Phoenix Munich with Dame Emma Kirkby
Joel Frederiksen, lute, bass
Emma Kirkby, soprano
Text:
Flow, my tears, fall from your springs!
Exiled for ever, let me mourn;
Where night's black bird her sad infamy sings,
There let me live forlorn.
Down vain lights, shine you no more!
No nights are dark enough for those
That in despair their lost fortunes deplore.
Light doth but shame disclose.
Never may my woes be relieved,
Since pity is fled;
And tears and sighs and groans my weary days
Of all joys have deprived.
From the highest spire of contentment
My fortune is thrown;
And fear and grief and pain for my deserts
Are my hopes, since hope is gone.
Hark! you shadows that in darkness dwell,
Learn to contemn light
Happy, happy they that in hell
Feel not the world's despite.
German:
Fließt, meine Tränen, strömt hervor aus euren Quellen;
verbannt bin ich für immer, drum lasst mich trauern;
wo der schwarze Vogel der Nacht sein Klagelied singt,
dort lasst mich mein einsames Leben fristen.
Verlöscht, ihr eitlen Lichter, leuchtet mir nicht länger!
Keine Nacht ist finster genug für jene,
die voller Verzweiflung ihr verlornes Glück beweinen;
das Licht enthüllt nur ihre Schmach.
Nie wird meine Qual ein Ende finden,
denn alles Mitleid ist dahin;
und Tränen, Seufzer und Klagen
haben meine öden Tage aller Freude beraubt.
Vom höchsten Gipfel der Zufriedenheit
stürzte mich das Schicksal hinab,
und Furcht, Kummer und Leid sind mein Lohn,
sind meine Hoffnung, wo es keine Hoffnung mehr gibt.
Hört, ihr Schatten, die ihr im Dunkel lebt,
lernt, das Licht zu verdammen.
Glücklich all jene, die in der Hölle weilen
und die Verachtung der Welt nicht spüren.
Tone: Matthias Filus
Video: Heinz Unruh
What a fantastic bass voice; he quite upstages the legendary Kirkby!
Thanks for the compliment, Joseph! Emma is a superstar and wonderful--always a privilege to sing with her. Check here for more about me: www.joelfrederiksen.com
Absolutely astonishing! I've loved the magnificent Emma Kirkby for years, and never thought I'd hear a voice that could upstage hers. But I just did. Congrats on a wonderful performance!
Much appreciated! Emma is an Angel and it has always been an honor for me to perform with her!!
Ich bin immer wieder hocherfreut, wenn ich wie hier Musik aus Räumen höre, für die sie gedacht war. So können Emma Kirkby und Joel Frederiksen mit sehr wandlungsfähiger, biegsamer und nuancenreicher Stimme singen, unterstützt nur von Frederiksens Lautenbegleitung, sodass sich ein sehr ausgewogenes Klangbild ergibt, dem zu lauschen die reine Freude ist und das mich ins Herz trifft. Verglichen mit anderen eine herausragende Interpretation!
Schon lange habe ich nicht im Internet einen so korrekt und fehlerfrei geschriebenen Kommentar auf deutsch gelesen. :D
Sublime! What a beautiful rendition!
Thank you!
I could watch and listen this video 1k times and still enjoy it as if would be the first time.
Thank you, Raúl!
@@ensemblephoenixmunich2210 Thanks for your beautiful interpretation!
Wonderful!
Lovely
It´s always a pleasure to listen the great Kirkby with her beautiful and angelic voice!
¡Y él es maravilloso también!
Hahaha, you`re welcome. I`m really envious, because I sing like a duck with pharyngitis. Thank you for your amazing work!
Sweet delight
Thank you, Olav!
That´s so beautiful, tender ... moving ...
Gran artista doña Emma.😃💕🌹🍃🌹🍃🌹🍃🌹🍃🌹🍃
OMG, this is a treasure!! Thank you for such a wonderful video. I adore Dame Kirby and I have to say, Mr. Frederiksen is just spectacular.
Thank you, Carolina. We had a wonderful time performing together, and this song is certainly one of the best ever written!!
Moving. Expression of deep emotion.
so beautiful, thanks for sharing
Flow My Tears Songtext
Flow, my tears, fall from your springs!
Exiled for ever, let me mourn;

There let me live forlorn.
Down vain lights, shine you no more!
No nights are dark enough for those

Light doth but shame disclose.
Never may my woes be relieved,
Since pity is fled;
And tears and sighs and groans my weary days
Of all joys have deprived.
From the highest spire of contentment
My fortune is thrown;
And fear and grief and pain for my deserts
Are my hopes, since hope is gone.
Hark! you shadows that in darkness dwell,
Learn to contemn light
Happy, happy they that in hell
Feel not the world's despite.
Chills.
Perfeito!

Kirkby - legenda, prawdopodobnie najpiękniejszy głos barokowy wszechczasów.
Thanks, Leo. It's been a great pleasure to perform with her over the years.
Wonderful
wow!
Very nice! 👏
I believe I have played Dowland on the recorder, or at least was familiar with his work. Greatly enjoy Emma Kirkby's vocal technique and expression. Great bass, too! Absolutely love the time period Emma works in.
Thank you very much! Emma is a dream to work with!
Very beautiful. Really think John would have liked this rendition. Thanks.
Thank you! I really hope he would have approved of our performance!!
Gracias youtube.
Just a question... if i have two thumbs, why I can not give two thumbs? Just saying...
I agree. And if I have a voice, why can't I sing like that ? Just saying...
Harad - Fantasy Music two wise people on youtube. What a relieve
"If music be the food of love, play on/ Give me excess of it, that surfeiting/ The appetite may sicken and so die. /That strain again! It had a dying fall/ O, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound/ That breathes upon a bank of violets/ Stealing and giving odor." Twelfth Night, opening lines spoken by Orsino.
How strange you should cite that. Listening to this music, I too ask myself if this is not exactly the music poor little bear (Orsino) is listening to. In this supreme comedy by the Earl of Oxford aka Shakespeare, did he know John Dowland?, relief from the pangs of despised love comes in the form of a strange and perky page called Cesario whose transformation restores the world to order and striken lovers to their place in the sun.
@@MrYorickJenkins I've no doubt the Earl & Dowland were acquainted.
basssssssssssss

There's no "upstaging".What's the matter with you?They're singing this music as it should be sung.To show the great beauty of the composer's art
a little bit 2 fast for me, I prefer the version with Emma und David Thomas
Same!
I must say that seeing Mr Sherwood copying Chris Squire's bass, singing and movements is, well, creepy. Not healthy, in my opinion. What used to be thought of as progressive is now just repeating the past, for me.
