The most beautiful and adequate performance of this piece I've ever heard. Thank you so much.

Quelle musicalité bravo

Wow... this is ethereal

Oh my got. She is just perfect...

Superb. Her voice just floats.

This beautiful and moving song is sung by the angels who receive the blessed at the portals of Paradise

What a lovely performance! just sung as it should be sung

How beautiful! One of my favorite songs ever, and she sings it beautifully.

Maravillosa voz, paraun precioso tema de ""strauss""".!!

After hearing this, I went running looking in my discotheque for her recording of the Chants d’Auvergne. What a pleasure!

So schön wie ihr Gesang ist der entspannt-glükliche Gesichtsausdruck.

perfection

Non conoscevo questo brano, così bello e toccante. Perfetto per la voce di Filippo Mineccia. Commovente. 🤍

The ''Sie wieder einen in mittel dieser sonnen atmenden Erden'' in one breath and in this tempo is Olympic.

I put it on 1.25 playback speed

Krása ❤

The pijanist was very good! Tender playing as it should have been done.

beautiful voice

My favorite version.

Her beautiful singing voice is out of this world,. and unrivaled, and indescribable, and outclassing

This sounds so much better in the higher key avoiding the muddy middle that puts one to sleep with this song.

Unbelievable voice technique. 👏👏👏

Very pure, beautiful voice. RIP Arleen. You will always be fondly remembered. Pure GOLD!!

This îs by far the best version of this lied I have heard. I am thankful that we have it on KZbin!

Exquisite artistry.

Oh my word sung so perfectly by a beautiful woman. Voice like an angel. Pianist wonderful accompanist.

Flawless technique. Wonderful artistry. She makes it look easy. But Richard Strauss is murder to sing.

Одно из лучших сопрано ХХ века

Auger was like an angel sent down to give us God’s gift of music and then suddenly she was gone. You don’t know what you have until it’s gone.

Perfection from both

Indeed it is the pianist that sets the tone of the performance she can sing "nicely" because she doesn't have to give a moments thought to the accompaniment that is played so beautifully.

Yes Arleen ...I never forget your "Aus Liebe will mein Heiland sterben" (Matthew Passion) in Amsterdam Concert Gebouw... I never in my life was so touched🌈 See you back in heaven😘

Truly stunning piano artistry too! Who is the pianist?

Just one word: Perfecto!

So beautiful♡♡♡

I call this a moment!

❤️ Beautiful version!! 👏👏👏 I'm going to add it to my playlist that I have of this song in particular!! 😊

Oh, heavenly days! I've listened to Anna Netrebko, Joyce DiDonato, Renee Fleming, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf and Jessye Norman (which had always been my favorite version) sing this song prior to hearing this and the studio recording from the same year. This is by far my new favorite rendition of the stunning song. Such grace, such control and she makes it sound so easy.

Love it

A thing of beauty is a joy forever.

as usual not a word about the pianist...imagine he was not there!

magic

This is especially stunning when you consider it was a live performance. No do-overs. And still essentially perfect.

Ik word gelukkig van de combinatie Filippo en Hasselt. ❤

As usual no credit for the pianist, without whose part this piece would be nothing. So annoying.

Bravísima :-(

What a profound interpretation that came from her heart. I loved the evenness of her soprano tone complemented by a poetic sound from the pianist. Indeed a magical combination.

Рихард Штраус !

Looking no further. I found the ultimate version.

Magnificent
