Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Poetry in Music.......2000-03-24

Elly Ameling is the touchstone for lieder performance in the post-war generation. Her melting sound and gracious interpretations are simply, poetry in music. Ameling must have a direct line to Brahms, for she has an innate understanding of his often mysterious songs. Her voice is the sound of warmth, compassion, and generosity.

5 out of 5 stars A smiling voice that can break your heart.......2000-03-03

In her day Elly Ameling was one of the premiere singers of lieder. Her light, perfectly produced voice always had a smile in it, like that of Elisabeth Schumann, but she could also sing melancholy or tragic songs in a way to break your heart. These early recordings of Brahms and Schumann lieder are nonpareil and we should be glad to have them available. The sound is of its period, adequate but not as rich as that in current recordings; one soon adjusts to that and no longer notices.

    5 out of 5 stars Ameling at her best!.......1998-10-03

    Recorded in the early 60's, this recording presents Ameling when her voice was at its best. She is not a Lieder singer who attempts put her interpretation at the foreground; rather, she simply sings these songs with great skill, letting the music speak for itself. The simplicity of her approach, coupled with the remarkable clarity of her voice, makes for a most enjoyable recording. Particularly gratifying are the Schubert selections. Along with various favorites, such as "Gretchen am Spinrade" and "Der Hirt auf dem Felson," the remarkable and relatively rare "Du liebst mich nicht" is included.

    Also of note is accompanist Joerg Demus' rare (for the 60's!) use of a forte piano. The clarity of the tone on this instrument is quite charming, and make this recording even more enjoyable.
