- "..... watching Quasthoff sing "Der Leiermann" is a really unique experience in the world of recorded music on DVD nowadays, a deeply touching moment of absolute union between music and singer, between composer and performer, like his face shows in all the song, and
like his voice sings"
from Franz Schubert's song cycle "Die Winterreise", op. 89, D. 911
Thomas Quasthoff, baritone
Daniel Barenboim, piano
Filmed live at the Berlin Philharmonie on 22 March 2005
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drueben hinterm Dorfe steht ein Leiermann
und mit starren Fingern dreht er, was er kann.
Barfuss auf dem eise wankt er hin und her
und sein kleiner Teller bleibt ihm immer leer.
Keiner mag ihn hoeren, keiner sieht ihn an,
und die Hunde knurren um den alten Mann.
Und er laesst es gehen alles, wie es will,
dreht, und seine Leier steht ihm nimmer still.
Wunderlicher alter, soll ich mit dir geh'n?
Willst zu meinen Liedern deine Leier dreh'n? - Hudba
Maximum expression.
Maximum voice control and technique.
Maximum intelligence.
Simply unparalleled.
Did you see his arms though?

So?

Fortunately not (you creep!) but what is your point, other than mocking a handicapped artist?

Wow, you just disqualified yourself as a human being, you know that right?!
Btw, just to spite you I thumbed up your musical uploads, you disgusting, perverted piece of shit
; )
Have you listened to Hans Hotter/Gerald Moore? Give it a try
My first time hearing Thomas Quastoff...what a voice...the song leaps from his mouth
He is retired now, for health reasons, he was at the global top for a while and retired from that.
Bravo! Let me share of some wonderful song of Schubert czcams.com/video/On17D1CxzrI/video.html and another one in German czcams.com/video/tQy39a7mlLo/video.html performed by trio of students of Academy of Choir Art in Moscow. If anybody knows the name of second song, write in comments, please
@@kurtilein3 how sad.
@@kathiebrobeck3426 He did not want to settle for anything less than absolute perfection, so he retired a bit early.
Escucho a Thomas quastoff y la emoción me sobrepasa
I am human rights activist from Azerbaijan and I was 6 years in prison. When I was in prison I watched film "in Bruges". In this film I heard this song. And after prison, when I released firstly I searched "in Bruges" songs and soundtracks. And I found this fantastic voice.
For fully feeling the film's and song's atmosphere I visited Bruges and I did walking tour in Bruges with listening this song. It was amazaing experience.
I think in this song and voice you can find all of tragedies of Europe. Wars, holocausts, destroying of empires, occupations and others...
My teacher of Arabic is Palestinian, and he was a reporter there. He started reporting against the crimes commited by the Government and by Israel, and he was kidnapped, put in prison and tortured. He still bears the scars of the torture.
It is absolutely horrible how people fighting for human rights suffer so much in so many countries. I wish there was a way to return those 6 years back to you or to rightfully compensate you for your suffering
Героям слава!
And immigrants
@@fktrcfylhbwey9581 I am not immigrant. I live in Baku.
@@ilkinrustamzadeh no, I'm about tragedy's of Europe
Am speechless. This is what happens when you put 2 ridiculously talented musicians together.
This has to be the most powerful performance this piece has ever had. I'm speechless. Like all great works of art, it speaks for itself
Greg Moberg You are entirely right.
When the right person speaks for itself!
Sorry, but no: old man Fischer-Dieskau is, simply spoken, the way this song is to be sung.
Fischer Dieskau. But this is great.
Hans Hotter/Gerald Moore remains, hands down, the best Winterreise I've heard. If you judge this better, we'll just have to disagree.
My mother was the biggest fan of the "winterreise". She could not listen to it after her mother died. Now my dad and I cannot listen to it after my mother died. If I try, in particular the "leiermann", I cry. This is some of the most powerful music ever compoesed, and performed by two of the most amazing artists. Stop whatever you do. Listen. If you're not moved, you don't live.
I'm just gonna say this to express how your voice affected me: I'm a Palestinian refugee and the first time I heard Mr. Quastoff was on the Israeli radio... simply, when I heard that on their radio I forgot everything about the war ... I started to forget that I have enemies... that's the real humanity... thanx to the real and beautiful humanitarian the great Thomas Quasthoff.. it sends chills down my body every time I hear his voice... 💚
In a 2003 interview Quasthoff expressed regret that the Israel palistinan conflict could not be resolved through COMPROMISE. Do you also feel that way?
Mo, it is simply because music is the language that is understood by all people. It is something we all have in common.
Music only functions as a unifying force between people. It brings people together to focus on one thing, leaving their issues aside. I’m glad it could work in your life in that way.
@Susan Moran i agree
@Susan Moran 🤣🤣🤣 What an empty gesture. Israel is an illegitimate state as well as a colonialist aparteid regime. I would suggest that if you wanted peace you would consider disavowing your Israeli citizenship as an association with a criminal organization.
I think Barenboim is the most expressive pianist I have ever heard. Great performance all round. Thanks.
Yes I agree with you and I think he is more genius as pianist than as orchestral director
Beautiful performance. Thomas Quasthoff, born in the late 1950's was one of the thousands of children born with birth defects in those countries where thalidomide which was prescribed to relieve symptoms of morning sickness in pregnant women. It is heart warming to see that even this adversity could not prevent the development and expression of his huge talent.

I think it's beautiful if someone who is, actually badly physically handicapped just completely master what he/she CAN do.
well said.
@@PauLtus_B Just think of all the aborted babies' talents going in the bin (literally) in the UK, abortion capital of Europe
@@liseernie oh dear.....
Why do you start describing his physical condition and not just speak about his beautiful voice and the incredible performance?
Without looking at the translation, this performance gave my hair a total standstill. Art cannot be explained, but when it works, it touches our heart deeply.
еще один фюрер пизда вам это вам не сталин
This song is one of the best of all times!! Both Quasthoff and Barenboim touch the divine!
This man's performance of this work makes me want too learn the German language, it's very beautiful
I arrived here in the most random way (first stop was "call the midwife"), and holy wow. Every sound/syllable/note coming out of his mouth is a revelation. So insanely beautiful.

What a performance too from Barenboim in those pieces , just spiritually wonderfull
Herr Quasthoff is my favorite male singer. Listening to him takes a big part of my time. Hats off.
Mon lied je l'approprie pour mon amour de la musique qui m'est un refuge dans un monde de brut, un chapeau beau pour Thomas Quasthoff et le magnifique pianiste
On peut rêver, on peut y croire qu'un monde plein de merveilles peut exister, c'est immense ce que la musique peut offrir et nous sauver de la bêtise humaine
Unforgettable dirge. The last of Wintereise. Quasthoff is wonderful, I saw him often on stage in New York.
Mit Tränen in den Augen und Gänsehaut höre ich dieses Lied zum sechsten Mal hintereinander. Die Stimme, der Text, die Musik. Einfach großartig.

Beautiful singing. This man must overcome many challenges but his singing isn't one of them. His singing sounds effortless.
Wunderbar - grossartig - unglaublich dichte, farbenreiche Atmosphäre !! DANKE !
I want to write something that completely encapsulates every thought and emotion I'm feeling, but I can't. All I can say is, his interpretation is so haunting and chills me to the bone. He transports me and I'm savoring the experience like a piece of fine chocolate that's slowly dissolving on my tongue.
In English:
There, behind the village,
stands a hurdy-gurdy-man,
And with numb fingers
he plays the best he can.
Barefoot on the ice,
he staggers back and forth,
And his little plate
remains ever empty.
No one wants to hear him,
no one looks at him,
And the hounds snarl
at the old man.
And he lets it all go by,
everything as it will,
He plays, and his hurdy-gurdy
is never still.
Strange old man,
shall I go with you?
Will you play your hurdy-gurdy
to my songs
Thanks:)
Donovan!
Excellent beyond every possible song
I like Peter Pringle's interpretation: czcams.com/video/mxGQBkmSvac/video.html (on an actual hurdy-gurdy, no less!)
The desolation of art without appreciation, a loneliness I'm sure Schubert suffered from.
It's December 2020 and all I want to do is walk off into the cold, alone, and never come back. Is it such weakness to not see the golden road? is it such a sin to understand that this world may not provide happiness?
We persevere through faith and force of will to not go into that cold night, because so many before us continue on without doing such.
Happy holidays everyone, stay safe.
Hope you found that which you seek.
Thomas Quasthoff - my favorite baritone!
More than 10 years ago, but fresh and new and spellbinding. Thank you maestro Quastoff and Barenboim and happy 81st birthday to you today
As a devoted fan of Fischer-Dieskau I never thought I would find a performance comparable to his rendition of Der Leiermann. I was wrong.
Лучшее исполнение. Мастерски и филигранно спето, интеллектуально и чувственно.
Как нигде присутствуют и слышны лучшие моменты и наработки немецкой оперной школы.
Браво.
Блестящий певец. Великолепная вокальная техника.
На сегодня - он возможно лучший баритон Европы (а может быть и мира)
This piece make to crash the heart. A sublime moment when music and soul trascend themselves, and make this work for the listener, a metaphysical experience.
My heart gets scratched by this piece. Each time. Squeezes every drop from my eyes.
Damn, both of them did an amazing job. Barenboim really accompanies the great singing with emotion and sensuality, it's incredible. The atmosphere...
Можно только восхищаться тем. как проживает свою жизнь этот замечательный вокалист. артист. педагог. дирижер! Дай. Господь. ему здоровья и сил на многие годы. чтобы радовался жизни и радовал нас своим творчеством и своим оптимизмом и жизненной силой.
Даров ан...
Для урока... Жиз ни....
This is breathtakingly beautifully done. I am so moved by it I cannot find the words to express how I feel! Reading over the comments others have made, I realize I am not alone.
True, and I must say the same about your own rendition
Ich liebe die Winterreise, wirklich ein unglaubliches Werk von Schubert.
Good God! Such a voice! The power of music!
His is the most beautiful voice I have ever heard! Heavenly.
Anyone 2019? Amazing voice! ❤️
Barenboim is very good too !
@@hervedupre7894 Barenboim is such an excellent conductor, that his amazing sensitivity as an accompanist is overlooked. Gerald Moore would approve!
Why is this question always asked?
2020.
The most beautiful recording I have ever heard of Der Leiermann.
The color and timbre of this incredible voice is overwhelming. Thank you.
Schubert has one of the most beautiful ways of expressing melancholy. The dark quality is really palpable in this performance.
I relate to this song in ways I fear I shouldn't.
When I was a kid, I knew well the songs of beggars grinding away at their guitars' strings as the winter cold set in. I was told to not even make eye contact with them by my parents.
But then, when I started to run away from school, they were the among only people I could turn to and trust. And so I went with the strange old men, and to their songs I lived the darkest years of my life.
I got chills from this. I think that's the first time I've ever had that reaction to music.
It was the first song ever I shed tears too. :-)
I discovered this greatly talented singer in a collaboration he did with Bobby McFerrin....another phenomenal talent
I have attended his concerts numerous times in New York and Salzburg, Austria, few times Claudio Abbado was the conductor, I was very fortunate to be able to hear him live, what a magnificent voice.
Невозможно оторваться от прослушивания!
Ich kann nicht genug von ihrer gemeinsamen Interpretation bekommen.
Herzlichen Dank 💃😘
After this incredible recording, I give thanks for CZcams once again. This pair begins to rival Fischer-Dieskau and Moore.....what a privilege to see and hear this.
Thank you.
че ты сука немецкая понемаещь в сосиьках пидр
я даже и не знала. просто слушала шуберта в его исполнении, а теперь какое-то особенное чувство уважения к нему возникает
Boahh. Perfekt performed
Absolutely beautiful performance and what an amazing voice that is so suited to Schubert.
Pretty sure this is exactly what Maestro Schubert was hearing as he wrote this. This is as good as it gets.
Wow, what a performance. It's the first time I hear or see this singer but he is absolutely spellbinding. Beautiful.
Magnifique , comme l'est tout l'art de cet artiste !
What a magical performance! Like Russia, Germany produces great lower voices! I am strongly led o declare that Schubert was, for his too-short life, the greatest songwriter the world has ever known! Oh yes, there are, and have been, great songwriters, but for quality and NUMBER, Schubert stands alone!
He wouldn't even use the piano, just writing the notes like we write youtube comments, scribbling along... and then he wrote pieces like Erlkönig, Müllerin, Winterreise...
No question whatsoever that he is the greatest songwriter who ever lived. I'm especially taken by Quastoff & Baremboim here and the due respect paid to him with the most moving performance I have ever heard. If I was asked the old Desert Island Discs question my answer would be Schubert's lieder, every last one.
Так где вы нашли низкий голос? Лирический баритон , почти тенор, но школа хорошая. Немецкая, такой уже нет
Fantasticly wonderful, tragic performance from the end song of Schubert's magnificent Winterreise! That song cycle is best ever written for piano and male voice on this earth. It can be performed well enough only by persons who have lived far enough or who have had big tragedy in their lives.
Ich musste es nun 5 mal am Stück hören. Wunderschön
Good grief! !! I listened 8 months ago and was impressed. But this really is something else. Schubert had a profound feeling with Winterreise and this interpretation is a straight line back to Schubert. On a more prosaic note I liked the visuals. Barenboim does not do the flouncing that is endemic today and Quasthoff's face is the absolute perfection of expressiveness. Thank you to Kees (for uploading this gem), Schubert (of course) and Barenboim and Quasthoff for truly understanding the tragedy.
Magnific interpretation, congratulatins to the soloist and beautiful Bareboin piano
Wow, goosebumps as soon as I heard his voice
It's the first time I've heard of Quasthoff, he is extraordinary ... the musicality and the voice are incredible !!! Amazing!!!
Fantastic,I am deeply mooved……beutyfull text and music…performed by Artist from God!…..
This is magic. Thanks Schubert.
The intensity of this performance touches me deeply!
Quasthoff für mich immer noch mit Abstand der beste Schubert Sänger. In Kombination mit Barenboim einfach top.
Ich bin Thomas Quasthoff vor 2 Monaten in Amsterdam Concertgebouw begegnet zur Masterclass. Super sympathischer Kerl
Sublime - happy marriage between a great singer and sensitive accompiment set to incredible music
What an amazing voice he has -- so very beautiful and capable of conveying such deep emotion.
i was randomly listening to this for the first time while doing errands and my face literally went 👌☹👌 by the street
Hehehe, how sweet. Can absolutely feel you there 😅 it's tristesse in it's finess form
Clicked because I thought the thumbnail was funny, left crying in tears on how good his voice is!
A little guy with huge voice… you’ve got to respect that!
i dont know what he's singing about but it sounds so beautiful,his voice is just amazing.
+Nancy517 About an old man, playing a song barefooted in the cold.

The Organ-Grinder
Way behind the hamlet
stands an organ man
and with freezing fingers
grinds the best he can.
Barefoot on the snowbank
swaying to and fro -
and his little plate has
ne'er a coin to show.
No-one comes to listen,
no-one comes to greet,
and the dogs are growling
at the old man's feet.
And he lets it happen,
lets it as it will -
cranking - and his organ
never staying still.
Strangest of the Ancients,
must I walk with you?
Will you grind my Lieders
on your organ, too?
+nickless - - the words are so sad but touching,thanks for posting that.
So nice that people have responded with information about the song. The final heartrending detail is that this is the last song of the 24 song cycle "Winter's Journey", which tells the tale of a man, broken by the rejection of his beloved, who despairs and wanders out into the midwinter wilderness. This song obliquely relates the moment of his final demise. Was there really a hurdy-gurdy man? Or was it just his feverish last thoughts? Does it matter?
is he Death? in disguise?
Que voz, que interpretação!!!
I don't speak german, but i understood every note and word.Thomas's singing touches the soul.!
THE ORGAN GRINDER
Yonder, past the village, stands the organ man,
And, with stiff old fingers, cranks just as he can.
Barefoot on the ice, he stumbles here and there,
And his begging bowl remains forever bare.
No one listens to him, no one looks at him,
Only dogs are barking round the strange old man,
And he lets it go, whichever way it will,
Grinds, his organ never standing still.
Strange mysterious old man, shall I come along?
Will you grind your organ to my song?
Over the village there is a lyre man
and with rigid fingers he does what he can.
Barefoot on the ice, he staggers back and forth
and his little plate always stays empty.
Nobody likes to hear him, no one looks at him,
and the dogs are growling around the old man.
And he lets it go all the way it wants
He turns and his lyre never stops.
Whimsical age, should I go with you?
Do you want to turn your lyre to my songs?
@@hermannharlos9944 danke shön!
I have always been most profoundly moved by Der Leiermann. But never as much as when hearing this interpretation. Sublime
Extraordinario! Qué voz y qué emoción para interpretar!
Dolcezza e perfezione infinita! ❤️👏👏👏🤝🤝
Warm, complex and a perfect pairing of great artists❤️
This is an amazing performance of a very deceptively difficult song. I am in awe.
Auch schon als Kind hat mich dieses Lied zu Tränen gerührt. Selbst heute noch als "Urmutter" fällt mir dieses Text in meine Gedanken und singe es.
Cap
Big big cap
La música transpasa cualquier barrera. Gracias a Dios que soy músico. ¡Qué belleza!

he feels this wonderful piece of music. he feels the pain and the sadness. he is in a moment of immortality. i think he is completely in the here and now, absorbing everything and uniting time and space.
Maravillosa interpretación y acompañamiento único. Directo al corazón. Hermosísima la versión de este lieder por dos grandes: Quasthoff y Barenboim. Bravo
Прекрсно исполнено произведение!!! Шуберт был гений своего жанра! Великий человек проживший жизнь героя Гете шарманщика
Sehr ausdrucksstarke und gefühlvolle Interpretation, grandios 👌🌺🌿
Bei der Interpretation der "Winterreise" schieben sich viele Sängerinnen und Sänger von Ton zu Ton und verbleiben im sängerischen Selbstgefallen. Thomas Quasthoff hingegen erzählt mit jedem Wort einen Geschichte, "malt" Bilder, packt und fesselt. Ein Meister!
I Love how the whole world is coming together in this comment section to appreciate this piece of art
Speechless. Gives me shivers.
Beautiful voice....wonderful expressive interpretative talent. The kind of voice you want to hear over and over.
2 3 года еще пидары прсучествуете а там как карта ляжет
Music and death...on the wings of Schubert's Leiermann you can experience eternity.
Wow. Incredible timbre and delivery. Astonishing voice.
What a beautiful voice.
gorgeous tone and control. thank you both!
I had the great pleasure many years ago of singing in the choir of the St. Matthew Passion in Salamance, where Thomas Quasthoff sang solo. What a great talent, what a great interpretation here of a great song by Schubert.
A masterful performance of a haunting classic.. Bravo!
Un grand monsieur, humble et talentueux
Sublime.. perfecto... emocionante... bravo Thomas!!!
These two men are cultural heritages of the whole globe.
He is a perfect leider singer with depth and beauty
Beautifully haunting. Absolutely amazing
2020 immer noch ein Geschenk Gottes !

Бог попытался отдать свой долг прекрасным голосом. Но даже такое щедрое подношение не равнозначно потере.
Ich liebe Schubert, insbesondere die Winterreise. Prof. Quasthoff mit Barenboim. Ein Genuß
