that feeling you get when you tell your father that the elf king is LITERALLY RIGHT BEHIND YOU but he insists that nothing is there and doesn't even speed up

[@Illuminat-ve5ue]

it isnt elfking but erlking

[@Illuminat-ve5ue]

@@myopia9032 they missprinted elfking as erlking but goethe liked that title much more than elfking becaude it adds a flair of unknown to the poem so he kept the name. The name Erlking has no own meaning except this one(in this context) and isn't a translation of elfking or something like that. The Erl instead of the Elf is intended and has a distknct function so it should be erlking.

There's nothing behind him. The child is sick and hallucinates. The father wants to get the son to a doctor, thats why they are on a trip

[@0retro0]

[@gunterangel]

Yes, the boy is probably sick and fevers heavily. And he probably hallucinates as well, and that's probably the reason for the father to ride fast thru the night in order to get him to a doctor. ( But it is never explicitly said so! ) And yet, the great dramatic impact of the poem also lies in its intended ambiguity. Is the boy only hallucinating and everything he sees or hears is pure illusion ?! ( His father tries to calm him by giving him a rational explanation for every frigthtening hallucination he sees or hears.) Or is it only in the state of agony, that a human being can see and hear things from another world, that is normally hidden from us... ?! Goethe leaves this question open by intention and this ambiguity makes the great mystery of the ballad. In old nordic sagas it was told about the mystic figure of the 'Elverkonge,' that everyone, who was touched by him, would immediately die. Goethe used this myth, when he lets the boy die just after he had cried: "My father, my father, he's touching me now! Erlkönig has done me harm !" Was it a mere coincidence, that the agonising boy had died just after this last hallucination ? ( the rational interpretation !) Or are these old myths right and in the second of our death we're touched by a transcendental being like the 'Erlkönig' ,who takes our life energy with him ..?! ( the metaphysical interpretation !) Imho it's this ambiguity, that the famous ballad so masterly plays with without ever giving a final explanation, that makes it so profound and shivering. In German literature science Goethe's 'Erlkönig' is often related to the so-called "Schauer-Ballade(n)" of early German romanticism. 'Schauer' in this context means 'shiver', that means it will give the reader or listener a shiver or goose-bumps Imho a famous pendant in the English language would be E.A.Poe's 'The Raven' for instance. Here also the reader remains with a sublime ambiguity. Is this nightly visit of the black bird, a messenger of death in old nordic sagas, only a coincidence, and the single word 'Nevermore', that he always utters at every question of the protagonist, a sure sign, that he was once tamed and trained to speak that single word by an unknown human being, whom he had escaped ?! Or is the creepy bird really a "messenger from beyond" ?! Of course in Poe's ballad the supernatural aspect is not so strong as in Goethe's, since it's obvious, that the protagonist, who constantly asks questions to the bird, using or mere misusing the animal as a kind of oracle, is hysterically stepping himself up in his grief about his young woman, when he compulsivly wants to hear the only word the bird could speak for an answer again and again. ("... Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore!" ) So by this 'The Raven' is mere a psychological drama and a study of pathological grief imho. But nevertheless, there remains a bit of ambiguity as well as in Goethe's ballad, and the possibility, that the creepy nightly visitor is actually "a messenger from beyond " is still given, somehow......! And this small supernatural possibilty makes the utter sadness of Poe's ballad even more shattering.

Herrgott, das ist die epischste und kraftvollste Version dieser Ballade, die ich nie gehört habe, und es ist vielleicht der beste lyrische Gesang, den ich je gehört habe

[@scottjohnson9873]

Of course with Hermann Prey and James Levine the result of this colaboration could only be marvelous. I had never heard Der Erlkonig with orchestra. I enjoyed listening to this presentation. The interpretation of Prey is moving, exciting together with the masterly directing of the orchestra. This gives a whole new sensation to me. Bravi.

[@chukwukadibialawrence3235]

Even despite the fact that the performance has ended, the ending made me wanted more. I've watched and listened to so much performance of Erlking. But this remains d best.

@@vitellia7299 viele meiner Kollegen stöhnen, dass es fürchterlich sei auf Deutsch zu singen, es würde nicht klingen, etc. Daran hatte ich gedacht, als diese Aufnahme hörte. Hermann Prey war in puncto "Tonproduktion" den meisten deutschen Sängern überlegen, man könnte das auch einfach messtechnisch ermitteln. Über den subjektiven Maßstab der Musikalität, darf man sich gerne streiten, das hängt viel vom Zeitgeschmack ab. Bei dieser vom Orchester begleiteten Aufnahme bin ich einfach platt, mit welcher Stimmgewalt Prey dem Orkan des Orchesters antwortet. Mir sind nicht all zu viele Aufnahmen von Prey begegnet, wo er Italienisch singt. Einiges von Mozart und der Barbier, die Neapolitanischen Lieder von Henze. Verdi kenne ich von ihm nur auf Deutsch. Den Barbier singt er als ein wahrer Belcantosänger, elegant und mühelos; im Gegensatz zu vielen seiner italienischen Kollegen, die diese Arie wohl mehr als eine sportliche Herausforderung sahen.

[@vitellia7299]

[@wotan10950]

Erlkönig Wer reitet so spät durch Nacht und Wind? Es ist der Vater mit seinem Kind: Er hat den Knaben wohl in dem Arm, Er fasst ihn sicher, er hält ihn warm. „Mein Sohn, was birgst du so bang dein Gesicht?“ „Siehst, Vater, du den Erlkönig nicht? Den Erlenkönig mit Kron’ und Schweif?“ „Mein Sohn, es ist ein Nebelstreif.“ „Du liebes Kind, komm, geh mit mir! Gar schöne Spiele spiel’ ich mit dir; Manch’ bunte Blumen sind an dem Strand, Meine Mutter hat manch gülden Gewand.“ „Mein Vater, mein Vater, und hörest du nicht, Was Erlenkönig mir leise verspricht?“ „Sei ruhig, bleibe ruhig, mein Kind: In dürren Blättern säuselt der Wind.“ „Willst, feiner Knabe, du mit mir gehn? Meine Töchter sollen dich warten schön; Meine Töchter führen den nächtlichen Rein Und wiegen und tanzen und singen dich ein.“ „Mein Vater, mein Vater, und siehst du nicht dort Erlkönigs Töchter am düstern Ort?“ „Mein Sohn, mein Sohn, ich seh es genau: Es scheinen die alten Weiden so grau.“ „Ich liebe dich, mich reizt deine schöne Gestalt; Und bist du nicht willig, so brauch ich Gewalt.“ „Mein Vater, mein Vater, jetzt fasst er mich an! Erlkönig hat mir ein Leids getan!“ Dem Vater grausets, er reitet geschwind, Er hält in Armen das ächzende Kind, Erreicht den Hof mit Mühe und Not: In seinen Armen das Kind war tot. The Erlking Who rides so late through the night and wind? It is the father with his child. He has the boy in his arms; he holds him safely, he keeps him warm. ‘My son, why do you hide your face in fear?’ ‘Father, can you not see the Erlking? The Erlking with his crown and tail?’ ‘My son, it is a streak of mist.’ ‘Sweet child, come with me. I’ll play wonderful games with you. Many a pretty flower grows on the shore; my mother has many a golden robe.’ ‘Father, father, do you not hear what the Erlking softly promises me?’ ‘Calm, be calm, my child: the wind is rustling in the withered leaves.’ ‘Won’t you come with me, my fine lad? My daughters shall wait upon you; my daughters lead the nightly dance, and will rock you, and dance, and sing you to sleep.’ ‘Father, father, can you not see Erlking’s daughters there in the darkness?’ ‘My son, my son, I can see clearly: it is the old grey willows gleaming.’ ‘I love you, your fair form allures me, and if you don’t come willingly, I’ll use force.’ ‘Father, father, now he’s seizing me! The Erlking has hurt me!’ The father shudders, he rides swiftly, he holds the moaning child in his arms; with one last effort he reaches home; the child lay dead in his arms.

[@danionthego]

I studied that poem 40 years ago in German literature appreciation class and I never forgot it. It gave me chills then; it still gives me chills. Wonderful with full orchestra.

[@gunterangel]

Very good translation into English! 👍 But just for the very last line, I would like to consider a little alteration. The reason for the great dramatic impact of the German last line is imho, that the word "tot" is the very last word of the whole poem and that little pause most singers make before it : " ...in seinen Armen das Kind.. war... TOT !" 😱 That's makes me shiver everytime. I'm a native speaker. So I would try to translate this line in a way, that in English it is also the word 'dead', that closes the poem. For instance : " in his arm, the child ... was...DEAD !"

[@Xerxes2005]

I liked the singer's interpretation but I think this is an instance where the piano serves the narrative the best.

[@lesleywilbourne7823]

I totally agree with you. The orchestra lost the urgency of the ride that the repeated Staccato accompaniment of the piano provides. It also overwhelmed the soloist in places, which in my opinion defeats the object: not much point having a story being told if you can’t hear the story. Here’s an example of arrangers not knowing better than the composer! Schubert had it spot on! Levine did not!

[@tubamirum007]

Whether one likes it or not, this certainly gives one something to think about. And it must be considered that this recording is one thing, but what was it like for the live audience as well? Good or bad, a completely different mix! At first I thought this was a little too frantic, with all the strings losing hair off their bows with every stroke, but I warmed up to it a little, and the ending turned out to be pretty powerful!

[@swissarmytenor]

To me, both are great - both 'work',' as they say - yet each brings something to the table that the other cannot. Of course, personal tastes will have some favor one over the other, but so glad this was filmed for us to enjoy.

Just want to point out that every time the boy cries out for his "vater" the singer makes it more and more dramatic, it's just so good: 00:59 1:43 2:19 2:57.

@sebthi7890 Super! Guter Beitrag von Ihnen. Sogar Lieder von Hans Werner Henze, wenn Sie den meinen, kennen Sie. "Barbier von Sevilla" ganz toll - und Belcanto-Gesang usw. Das wissen viele nicht. Wo ich aber nicht übereinstimme, "fürchterlich" ist es zwar nicht, auf Deutsch zu singen😅. Aber die deutsche Sprache ist tatsächlich nicht so gut für den Gesang! Eine harte Sprache, klingt auch wie staccato - im deutlichen Gegensatz zur italienischen Sprache! Eine leichte, fast weiche Sprache mit viel legato, das gut ist für die Musik! Deshalb Belcanto, schöner Gesang. Alles klar? Die Hauptsache ist, wir hören gute Musik mit guten Stimmen wie Hermann Prey, der aber leider nicht mehr lebt. Es gibt auch heute noch sehr gute Sänger und Sängerinnen. ==> Die großen Komponisten sind unübertroffen! Nur Qualität hält sich so lange, dass man noch heute weltweit Opern, Konzerte, Sinfonien, Kammermusik, Liederabende von ihnen aufführt, die ich gerne immer wieder besuche!

what I often fail to understand: some classical music are so famous to people, why other great music, which I perceive exactly same as the famous ones, are not mainstream?

[@7H7GRm8jm4QCnjuQ]

It happens for many different reasons. It’s the same as pop music. Some songs just appeal to fewer people, or they’re more complicated, or the emotion is too difficult for a lot of people to take (I mean this piece is about a child dying, that could be very triggering). That’s why we’re lucky to have so many recordings. We can listen to the pieces that are less popular too. When you listen to all the Schubert songs you find some amazing things that no one really performs. Sometimes a piece just needs one artist to perform it a lot, and it can become well known
