As a violist, of course I have always loved this recording for the viola playing of my hero Primrose, but this has to be the most beautiful singing of these songs ever. Marian Anderson's exquisite voice and expression set the highest standard ever.

I think this is probably the best I've ever heard her. I'm sure that recordings of the period in which she was in prime voice were able to capture only a glimmer at best of what it was to experience her in concert. I've never quite been able to appreciate acoustically what I've seen written about the beauty of her voice, but this recording gives me a clue as to how marvelous she may have been at her vocal peak, and just why the voice itself was so celebrated, in addition to her place as an American icon.

the glorious music o Brahms performed by three great musicians whose primary mission was to convey the expressive and emotional depth of music--Anderson, her accompanist Rupp and Primrose. A trio of what chamber music is all about.

When I heard the first few notes, I thought "too slow," but these artists justify their tempos. I had never heard Anderson's voice in its prime before; it's very beautiful. Thanks for this posting!

This is a magnifient post with Primrose and Anderson at the Zenith of musical expression. Sadly even after all these years Anderson is known to too many as mostly a Spirituals' singer. She was glorious in whatever she sang. Prejudices and stereotypes die slowly. Regards- John

Wow! Marion Anderson seems divinely inspired -- the song comes from a deep place. As for William Primrose the viola obbligato is incomparable in both technique and expression. Franz Rupp's piano is in the background sonically but his control and sensitivity are a model!

Zejména v druhé písni jsou velmi osobitě poskládány oba hlasy - Marian i violy. Už už se zdá, že to nemůže ladit, vždycky to Brahmsovi sklouzne do harmonie, která skladbu ještě povyšuje. Je to nádhera a dokonale melodické. S velkou úctou děkuji za nahrávku a zdravím z Čech, z Rakovnicka.

Thank you so much, as the others have said. I'm performing this Saturday, 8 mai, with a cellist and my dear husband accompanist. In rehersal, I begged them to slow the tempo, and they did a bit. Now thanks to your posting, they have agreed that it's much more beautiful at tempos close to these. We musicians today have a tendancy to push all the tempos, but art does triumph now and then. Slow it down and hear the harmonies and the play of the many lines of beautiful music. Wish us luck for Saturday. And if Marian Anderson were here, I would thank her myself. I thank you, again.

I was once extremely fortunate as a high school senior to perform this with an extremely great contralto and pianist at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in 1976 - Angela Coffer and Vernon Roberts. It was a spiritual encounter for she sounded like Marian Anderson and Vernon reminded me of Brahms himself. I think Dr. McElrath was pleased.

While ago I searched youtube for "Walter Primrose" but i don't think i saw this GEM!!!! How perfectly gorgeous, and we should remember that J Brahms had something to do with it. Can anyone verify that he wrote these exactly for piano, viola, voice? Or is it a transcription?
