Ingeborg Hallstein: Die Melodie des Lebens (Franz Grothe)

Gorgeous, sublime music by Franz Grothe: Die Melodie des Lebens (The Melody of Life), Lied für Koloratursopran und Orchester.
Lyrics (by Willy Dehmel): Seit vielen tausend Jahren gibt es Lieder und immer neue Melodien entstehen von Liebe und von Leid, von Treue und vom Glück, und manches kleine Lied begleitet uns ein Stück. Die meisten aber kommen und vergehen. Es gibt nur eine Melodie, die niemand vergisst, weil sie das Herz tief drinnen spürt. Es gibt nur eine Melodie, die stets in uns ist, die uns den Weg durchs Leben führt. Es gibt zwar immer wieder neue Lieder, doch ich weiß eins, das ewig bei uns bleibt. Es ist das goldene Tor, für das uns die Natur die ersten Worte in die Herzen schreibt: Die Melodie des Lebens, das Glockenspiel der Herzen, auf den Flügeln dieser Töne fliegen alle unsere Träume dahin. Die Melodie des Lebens, das Glockenspiel der Sehnsucht, ist das Echo in uns selber, das gibt dieser Musik ihren Sinn. Die Melodie des Lebens, das Lied von Glück und von Leid, Tag und Nacht klingt sie fort durch Raum und durch Zeit.

Gorgeous and sublime music, indeed, matched by the gorgeous and sublime singing of Ms Hallstein - so delicate yet strong and rich, elegant and seemingly effortless, superb and, beyond any doubt, non-pareil. So many thanks for your fine taste and judgement in uploading the art of this most beautiful coloratura voice and gracious lady singer.

Quelle merveilleuse musique, quelle sublime interprète, quelle incroyable ligne de chant ! Respect !!!

[@pasqualeperrone1560]

I’m not sure what amazes me more: how flawless she is in every one of her recordings I’ve listened to or the fact that everything she sings is so mesmerizingly beautiful, sincere, and refreshingly original. She’s truly breathtaking.

[@megadim713]

Well put. As the music critic of the renowned Neue Zürcher Zeitung wrote: "whatever she sings becomes a true work of art, thanks to her extraordinary ability." There can be no higher praise for an artist. She's introduced me to innumerable works I've never heard before. Many of them do not seem to have been recorded by other sopranos. Some of them I found other versions, but usually there is no comparison in terms of vocal and artistic quality. Feel free to share and comment on other Hallstein videos on my new channel. I hope to upload more in the next few weeks.

This lady and her singing are sublimely beautiful. She really does lift ones spirit and takes one on a journey of pure velvet enjoyment. She is just stunning to listen too. I have no idea why I feel that we have been cheated that this lady is not a mega world superstar. I do understand some of the reasons, but still....

[@jordan_roadhouse4798]

She truly is delightful. She sings with a smile and you can hear that so clearly. I simply adore this ladies work.

Does anyone know where I can find the sheet music to Die Melodie Des Lebens?

[@megadim713]

You may try: www.musik-direkt.com/ A search for Willy Dehmel and Franz Grothe yielded 11 results. Perhaps you can ask the owner for help in finding the right one. Or you might ask Fantasia3478 on KZbin. He was the kind person who provided me the lyrics for this song from a book. You can reply to his comment on my video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKHEm3WEiriEhNk Good luck! If you do find the book, I would appreciate it if you could let me know its title, as I might be interested in getting one myself! Thanks and have a wonderful new year!
