[@voraciousreader3341]

It’s just so amazing, there aren’t words....and the violinist deserves very high praise, as well. I’ve listened to just about every version of this aria on KZbin, and there isn’t a singer who can touch Julia Hamari’s interpretation, in my opinion. However, I haven’t heard every version of this aria, bc it was around for a few hundred years before singers could be recorded. And musical taste is so subjective, and for some reason this is especially true for classical vocalists, so I can’t say it’s the best ever....I can only say-to my ears-this is perfect!!

This performance has never been superseded. Absolutely astonishing. The dialogue of the voice with the violin is heart-wrenching.

It's a pity that nowadays Bach's works are almost always given in a hurried way which is neither appropriate for the content nor of the time the music was composed in. If you feel like dancing when listening to Bach's 3 Kyries at the beginning of his Mass in B Minor, something is terribly wrong!

[@alipitogen]

Julia Hamari is also on aria duty in Rilling's Matthew Passion recording from about 1979. Her Erbarme from that just shades the Gonnenwein, I would say, but I would be hard pressed to choose between it and the above effort, as there's something about looking at her singing which adds to the performance and clouds comparison. Her perfect intonation, soprano like clarity of tone, and deep emotion sets her up there near the top for me.

Julia Hamari’s musicality and excellent taste is beyond amazing!

Julia Hamari est excellente et vraiment pénétrée par la dramaturgie de cet aria, peut être un sommet de la musique de tous les temps. Je la place au même rang que Nathalie Stutzman. Toutes deux absolument fabuleuses, bouleversantes. Le premier violon est sublime, envoûtant.

[@NoahSpencer008]

This should have more views then it gets, the hard work Bach put into making the Matthäus Passion. The tranquility of this piece leaves me to tears. Music today, isn't even music, it's utter trash. The Erbarme dich will (to me) be one of the greatest achievements in all music.
