Thank you so much for this. Brilliant. I'm also so glad you used the Erich Kleiber recording to demonstrate!

[@isengart]

Thank you! I have made another video about another aria from Rosenkavalier and for that one, I used a recording with Erich Kleiber's son Carlos conducting. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHPUpo2imL9ppMk

Lovely job, as always! I appreciate how you find the comedy in this scene, as the sound of the orchestra could influence singers (and/or directors) into creating an otherwise emotionally conservative approach. I’d love to see your interpretation of “Ah! mes amis…Pour mon âme” from _La fille du régiment_ as it is one of my favorite arias to sing and listen to!
