Very wonderful. An instantly recognisable voice and one of the great interrupters of our day. I met her at her house in Harrow many years ago and I remember the afternoon with great affection and huge admiration for this iconic of artists. I don't think she knew how great is was (is). It was literally her - telling the story. But it was in such a beguiling and captivating way.....

Wow! That made my knees crumble! The are many great sopranos and mezzos through the years with all the art of perfection in voices, but for me there are a very few, Janet Baker, Von Stade, Gheorghiu, Albanese, that have a touch of pathos and huskiness in their voices that turn me to jelly. I have never heard a recording of "Morgen" that I love like this one. (The closet second probably was Bjoerling.)

I suspect this was orchestrated by Strauss himself - orchestral versions of his songs exist. Yes likely the violinist was given precedence microphone wise - the level needed to drop once Dame Janet started to sing. It is true that the violin is the melody and the vocal line a gentle ' commentary' using the words of the poem, but oh how beautiful it is!

In which key is she singing this? Somewhere between F and F# on my piano, but the Lied is i G in my score. Morgen is from the blissfull days of 1893-4, when Strauß maried Pauline de Ahna. The 4 Lieder were presented to this marvellous soprano (Elizabeth in Tannhäuser) as a wedding gift. The 20th century and two world wars are unthinkable.

MORGEN----RICHARD STRAUSS-JOHN HENRY MACKAY Y en la mañana el sol volverá a brillar; y por el camino que yo recorreré, nosotros nos reuniremos otra vez, los bienaventurados, en el seno de esta tierra que respira la luz del sol. Y a la inmensa playa, bañada por olas azules, bajaremos despacio y silenciosamente, calladamente nos miraremos a los ojos, y sobre nosotros descenderá el mudo silencio de la felicidad. JOHN HENRY MACKAY --------------------------------------------- Und morgen wird die Sonne wieder scheinen und auf dem Wege, den ich gehen werde, wird uns Glücklichen, sie wieder einen inmitten dieser sonnenatmenden Erde… Um zu dem Strand, dem weiten, wogenblauen, werden will still und lagsam niedersteigen, stumm werden wir uns in die Augen schauen, und auf uns sinkt des Glückes stummes Schweigen… JOHN HENRY MACKAY

Despite the soupy film recording and muffled soundtrack, nothing can diminish Baker's singing. She had this extraordinary interpretative skill with Strauss, which transcended the mere notes. Who remembers her performance as Julius Caesar with Valerie Masterson? Terrifying in its energy and verve. She was and is an exceptional artist.

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE THIS PIECE and I LOVE JANET BAKER but whose idea was this to create this awkward chamber arrangement? any thoughts?

I assure, that is primarily in the "academic" world. Just some insecure wannabe diva who hasn't a chance in hell in having a career, enjoying his/her 15 minutes of faux fame. Most singers (musicians) I know highly respect instrumentalists. It also appears YOU don't appreciate a "singer" as you refer to yourself as a "musician" and not the singer. Goes both ways, don't ya think? I'd put my musicianship up against you any day and win! ;-)

I didn't mean to demean DJB, but was simply pointing out that the Orchestra/instruments always takes second place to the vocalists (or so it seems). I tend to listen more to Strauss' Orchestral themes. From now on, I'll keep my opinions to myself. If I ruffled feathers, I once again apologize......BUT, I do wish people would directly address the person to whom they're responding......

I would have to agree with you...as both a singer and conductor, I assure you that any artist who has done the proper study of the score will respect the efforts of all. It shows the maturity of the performer's artistic philosophies. One who serves the music respects all involved in making it happen because it's a unification of wills and energies in motion towards a higher more perfect goal; something much more involved and precious than any ONE person involved.

I believe that he is an accompanist, and Dame Baker is a soloist. For the lieder, the singing part is supposed to be the main part - soloist, and the piano or violin or orchestral arrangement is supposed to be an accompaniment. I don't think this song is an exception. He is a great violinist, but he played like a solist. Like Gerald Moore's book -"Am I too loud?", the accompanist should not be too loud.

There is more instrumental music than vocal music. There are more instrumentalists than vocalists (in the classical world). Yes, it is a chamber piece; however, the solo is a vocalist. Could you say the same about the 3rd trumpet player in a piano/orchestra concerto.... going unnoticed? Actually, in opera, it's the conductors that have all of the fame these days. Don't blame the singer!

The German mistakes are a bit distracting. She sings "Und auf de*n* Wege, den ich *s*ehen werde" instead of "Und auf de*m* Wege, den ich *g*ehen werde." And that meaty "-er" at the start is something else. And the lack of glottal stops on leading vowels. Not very German, I'm afraid.
