Richard Strauss: Allerseelen • Julia Faulkner Masterclass • BPYAP • Snape Maltings

Agnieska Grochala (soprano) and Lyndsi Maus (piano) work with Julia Faulkner on German pronunciation and shaping in Strauss' music through dynamics and tempo. They also consider head position when singing and how this can help in projecting the voice.
Filmed at Aldeburgh Festival 2018, as part of a series of masterclasses on the Britten-Pears Young Artist Programme with John Fisher, Julia Faulkner and Matthew Rose.

This teacher knows her craft I can only imagine her singing voice and the students that she mentors. I want to learn more about this teacher. The young woman's voice is lovely.

I love this singer's voice and technique. She has a very heavy accent and is very expressive and artistic but not yet a polished controlled performer. This brilliant teacher is very detailed and they could have worked hours on the nuances needed here. She's got to pick and choose what she can accomplish with her in a relatively short segment to leave time for the other students.

Tisch!!! Why she didn’t fix her diction? This is German! Also “e” is too open.

Richard Tauber's late (1946) recording is an object lesson in interpretation.

Quite a voice. Would love to her her do Gilda

Too much body movement that distracts the audience. Looking more at the body then listening to the beauty you are capable of singing in this song!

[@nancyrevzen7798]

she doesn't know which vowels are closed and which are open. No idea.Teacher not helping at all.

[@nancyrevzen7798]

Not a mezzo. Diction????????????

[@meiada]

Why can’t her wear something pretty when sing such a prestigious song.

[@nancyrevzen7798]

so much doing with her hands and body but no good singing. Why does everyone need to sing. She should be a listener, not a performer

[@adelaide3409]

Disagree completely. I certainly know that I couldn't even do that. I have the humility to say that.
