Standchen - Franz Schubert by Thomas Quasthoff

[@andrearenes7747]

Wow!!!! I taught English to this man from 1973 - 1974 when I worked one year at a highschool in Hildesheim, Germany. He was a wonderful student with beautiful handwriting. He also had a fantastic sense of humour. So happy that he has this amazing career and gorgeous voice

[@Marunius]

Noo way :D Awesome

[@sheilamillar]

His English is so perfect! You obviously did a great job!

[@andrearenes7747]

@@sheilamillar😂I hope so

[@arisliepins9969]

My deepest bow to this man. Crippled by Thalidomide and gifted by Lord with such a beautiful voice.

[@NikoHL]

Well said.. I was completely stunned by the beautiful sound coming from this man.

[@charlottepatterson2864]

The performance of this song that stands head and shoulders above all the rest. Perfection in every way!

[@NS-dt2bd]

So so beautiful!! Makes me cry!

Hasta hoy tengo la fortuna de conocer al bajo-barítono alemán Thomas Questhoff. ¡¡¡Es estupendo!!!

[@imo463]

One of the best renditions I have ever heard! So beautiful!

[@wilmakorthuis7917]

Such an amazing voice and so much feeling

[@ЕленаКозлинская-л8о]

Истинное наслаждение испытала от этого исполнения! Браво! Томас Квастхофф прекрасен, как всегда!

привет елен.я только пару дней назад услышал этого певца.какой глубокий и выразительный голос.

Прекрасное исполнение... Голос удивительный. Браво.

[@inessablanck7421]

Brilliant performance : have heard him in Life concerts so man times!! Huge talent !!

[@catherinestora6213]

the best I ever heard ! Deep, moving, incredible voice...

[@GOURMET1977]

Listening to this interpretation gives me so much, I don't have to try anymore. Let it be... When someone does it so much better than any other, it shouts to surrendering. I give up, let Thomas sing, others be silent..

[@norbertbrein4184]

THOMAS QUASTHOFF IS TRULY PEERLESS - WHAT A GIFT TO ALL OF US - SCHUBERT WOULD BE AMAZED!

[@jjlungdoc7472]

I could not agree more with you.

[@Fluckor666]

No matter the the amount of pain in any realm; physical, mental, sociological; if you have a real talent and choose to work with it and put in time you will prevail. I have no idea if this man is making a living as a singer but he does a hell of a job anyway.

[@leitfie3579]

He made a living as an internationally famous singer, one of the most distinguished bass-baritones in the world. Eventually, when he was over 50, he moved from classical repertoire to jazz singing, from which, by the look of it, he takes enormous pleasure - and he still sings to very enthusiastic audiences.

[@tvdreamifound9088]

This music has comforted me in sorrow. So beautiful, warm, and sensitive!

[@4444marla]

Really beautiful. A great sensitivity and beauty of sound.

[@ignaciapeixinho8275]

Não há muito o que expressar,! Simplesmente espetacular👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@sarahcohen3844]

This was the only time I took to a vocalist on this song. I think it's one of the most beautiful songs known to man. But a solo piano player gave it its fullest beauty, I thought. Then I heard this fellow, who I knew nothing about. Assumed nothing. And it's so beautiful.

[@JD96893]

its actually for piano and voice if i'm not mistaken.

[@jjlungdoc7472]

“ And is so beautiful”……say no more.

[@achimrecktenwald9671]

Isn't the piano solo version a transcription by Liszt?

[@davidsolomon8203]

Beautifully done!

[@ЛарисаБулатова-л1у]

Мои восторги баритону!!!!Браво!!!!

[@bcmcc1340]

I love the fact that he's singing it in the original key (to my ear...) and doing a great job of it!

[@twinicebear775]

He's not though, he's singing it in C minor, while the original is in D minor

[@elliotportner8020]

Fine performance of leider with intensity and beautiful rendering of text

[@loslothwen]

Really beautiful voice.

[@irmagreco3370]

Maravilloso!!

[@YinYeung11]

I only sang this song in Chinese.but it is one of all my favourite and one Day will learn it in Germany. I love Thomas.

[@Tenderness1959]

dear Yin Yeung, do you know of the Chinese version here on youtube? Would love to hear it. Xie xie!

[@DavidHughes-op6zl]

He does what every singer must do, viz >Inhabit< the song/aria. Professor Q does so superbly, he brings the piece alive; a beautiful voice is the icing on the cake.

[@boristemkin]

Bravo!

[@LesMis931]

Quelle belle voix qu'il a...

[@zulemaskinner7243]

Impecable!!!

[@avarmadillo]

I think I like his voice better than Fischer-Dieskau---something I NEVER thought I would say--ever. And his interpretive powers and insight are not lacking in the least. Bravissimo!

[@Rollinglenn]

I must concur - Quasthoff has the superior interpretation.

[@kaikristiankarlsson6]

Kyllä on kaunista kuultavaa. Hänellä on niin upea, vahva, juhlava ääni joka soi mitä täydellisimmin.

[@소천-y4b]

Fantastic!

[@BrianDonaldMcKay]

@theconfusedsinger I agree that he could have sung it down a tone from the usual baritone register. The top seems almost tenorish for Quasthoff.

[@jjhhhggfify]

BRAVO QUASTOHFF

[@stephanejuh5203]

Sublime...

[@symphonicharmonies]

Beautiful!

[@TheNeptunianGamer]

1:14 those cornets are so beautiful

[@thomassicard3733]

I prefer playing cornet to trumpet, but whichever the score calls for is the correct choice. I agree with you - those cornets are so beautiful, both in sound and appearance!

"Leise flehen meine Lieder...."!

[@Rollinglenn]

This orchestration is such a great example of the time in which Offenbach lived and wrote. It is an example of art song meets theatre. While I agree with zrshwe, I find this to be interesting and warm - especially with the mellow brass. It is reminiscent of Mahler's orchestrations.

[@Herman6507]

I love the frame you put around this. True!

Original version with Schubert's piano accompaniment is more intimate and much better than the orchestral accompaniment.

[@WinrichNaujoks]

Tempo all over the place at the beginning

[@PaulVanBladel]

As always, Thomas Quasthoff shines. But, please Standchen is accompanied by PIANO, because this beautiful lieder needs the sensibility of this instrument. There is no added value whatsoever by all this orchestral colors.

[@gianfrancomariotti1672]

Poi dici che forse sei romanticantica secondo me leva il forse

[@dariocaroli5179]

bravissimo Thomas, brutta orchestrazione comunque, piuttosto pacchiana

[@Yo_ca_va]

honestly if I was the one I would'nt have answered to his love, the music is creepy

[@bencopeland3560]

Quasthoff is a good solid lieder singer but, in all honesty, people let their generosity of spirit get the better of their rational minds and overrate everything he does. The same phenomenon afforded Andrea Bocelli a career. ...hate replies incoming ...who am I kidding, no one listens to classical music anymore :-)

[@davehshs651]

+Ben Copeland Please don't put Quasthoff in the same category as Bocelli just because each has a handicap. Quasthoff has one of the finest bass-baritone voices of *any* singer around.

[@lucianacantares1]

Bullshit!

[@johnvant7984]

Ben Copeland nobody listens to classical music? That is the most incorrect thing I’ve ever heard, more and more people listen to classical! It may not seem like it because of the terrible mainstream music that is out, and it seems like everybody likes it. But to say classical music is never listened to is just not correct! It’s more popular now than years ago, people are starting to see how good music can be rather than this, monotone lyrics about death and violence and sex, over a trap beat that is popular right now!

[@frogmouth]

I would not put Quasthoff and Bocelli in the same category. (Bocelli does far more crossover stuff.) Quasthoff has done some jazz. But his Dichterliebe with Helen G and his Bach cantata work put him securely into serious classical contention as a singer and not just a curiosity with a nice voice .

[@jjlungdoc7472]

Quasthoff deserves more respect than being mentioned along Bocelli. It would be like comparing Elvis to Segovia or Horowitz to Liberace. Please!

[@wrtölp3578]

Schubert instrumentiert von wem auch immer klingt schlecht. Das passt überhaupt nicht. Schrecklich. Schubert wusste schon, warum er seine Lieder für Klavier und Stimme schrieb. Das Klavier hat die weiche Härte, die exakte Artikulation und Klarheit der Harmonie. Orgel ist am ehesten noch erträglich mit Schubert, aber nicht das. Das klingt wie ein halbrohes Spiegelei auf dem Fußboden, welches man noch zu retten versucht.

[@bodiloto]

dal vivo una vocalità mediocre, poco bella . viva il pop moderno !...

[@9freesolo]

When I'll die some day, I want, that this song will be played.
