Kathleen Ferrier and my mother were schoolmates. Her incredible voice, almost too intense to bear, has been part of my life since childhood. Her collaborations with Mahler's disciple, Bruno Walter, illuminate these phenomenal works of art.

Une Interprétation d'une sensibilité sublime. Une artiste *inoubliable* , si cruellement disparue...

Je suis toujours « sans voix » lorsque j’écoute Kathleen ❤!

The very first time that I ever heard Kathleen Ferrier happened pretty much by accident. My high school choir + a couple of others in the city were chosen to perform with the local junior symphony orchestra. One of our assignments was the Bruckner TE DEUM & not being familiar with it I decided to purchase a recording. The one I obtained had on the reverse side of the LP Mahler‘s KINDERTOTENLIEDER which is the recording played here. Immediately I responded to this music & the wonderful & absolutely unique timbre of Ferrier‘s instrument. What an introduction. I was not, at that time, not familiar with classical type voices at all, however, everything about Ferrier‘s singing & interpretation affected me on an emotional level & this was perhaps the first time that I had ever reacted in such a way to any type of classical music whatsoever. I was not even drawn to opera at that time either. There are very few voices that after 3 or 4 notes I would recognize almost immediately. Ferrier‘s is one & Boris Christoff is another.

Sencillamente maravillosa! Que belleza de voz, estilo y tecnica perfecta! La mejor interprete femenina de Kindertotenlieder.

Sin duda alguna...una interpretación de un gran nivel, conmovedora, emotiva..una voz firme, fuerte...de una gran expresividad y gran belleza. Muchas gracias ❤❤❤❤

Admirable par l'émotion et par la diction . il est stupide que cette géniale contralto nous ait été si promptement enlevée par un cancer ; il faut en particulier,l'écouter dans 'Le chant de la terre' de Mahler avec Julius Pakzac comme ténor et Bruno Walter au pupitre ; son Edwig est ,en situation,totalement bouleversant !

Ya hace 60 años que los oí por primera vez. Entre la 1. la 4 y la Canción de la Tierra...

la sua voce sconvolge per la sua intensità senza fine

[@pierre-francissalzmann6145]

En surimpression, dans la rêverie qui accompagne cette grande musique, avec cette grande voix, "und Weinen bitterlich"

죽은 아이를 그리는 노래 말러의 리케르트의 시에 곡을 붙인 이 노래의 슮픔은 세상에서 없을것이다 케슬린 페리어의 이노래는 언제 들어도 최고이며 말러가 딸의 죽음을 예상하지는 않았지만 결국은 첮째딸과 이노래는 하나가 되어버렸다 또한 이노래와 케슬린 페리어의 죽음과도 어찌 이렇게 일치감을 느끼게 될까~? 슈베르트의 가곡 마왕과 함께 이곡은 낭만주의 가곡의 시작이요 끝이라 생각합니다 쳐연하고 후회스럽고 비통한 그러나 잠시의 위로가 미약한 소망으로 끝을 맺은 이곡을 케슬린 페리어만큼 잘 표현할수있는 가수가 또있겠는가~? 단언컨데 오직 케슬린 페리어밖에는 없다고 말하겠씁니다~
