Bist du bei mir - Domingo & Sissel

Bist du bei mir - Domingo & Sissel

[@kalmiakalima5796]

One of Bach's most beautiful melodies. Great duet and thanks for the subtitles.

[@vicentesaiz]

The composer was Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel

[@tariqmanchester]

I've listened to this abselutely unrivalled performance countless times and it still moves me to tears. Magic.

[@GaryHollandArtist]

Once in a while one comes across an exquisitely performed piece of music. This is such a piece.

[@Situnadei]

A singing for Heaven, this was the good old times. "Bist du bei mir, geh ich mit Freuden" (If you are with me, I go with joy) is an aria from Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel's opera Diomedes. The aria is best known as "Bist du bei mir", BWV 508, a version for voice and continuo found as No. 25 in the 1725 Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach.

[@b43xoit]

Thanks for posting with the original words and the translation.

[@robertocaesar]

Ok, it's not written by Bach. But imagine how good a piece has to be for the great of greats to collect it, arrange it and publish it!!

[@doccal5896]

Gottfried Stolzel is the composer! It was copied by Anna Magdalena Bach into her notebook, but the composition is an aria by Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel from his opera Diomedes premiered in 1718.

[@raymondgood6555]

Exactly so!

The French Movie "Joyeaux Noel" introduced me to this beautiful song. I watch it every year and I am reminded of the universal meaning of Christmas "peace", the desire of the human heart, an innocent pure child born in the manger, the humanity of people (Men) from different cultures sharing the same heart in the midst of the ugliest events of war. This is a beautiful version of the song THANK YOU

[@user-tw1ox9ur9p]

Me too! I just watched it in class and I had to come here this song is just so beautiful and so is the movie.

im sorry but its joyeux noël ^^

Merry Christmas!

[@gunterschwenke927]

Ein wunderbare musikalische Leistung, meine Frau und ich wünschen uns dieses Lied an unserem letzten Weg. Danke!

[@dezangerman]

Das wäre schön, aber am Anfang dieses Wegens sollte man es so singen:Bist du bei mir, gehe ich mit Freuden, des Lebens Wanderweg mit dir entlang, in Freud' und Leid, bis uns der Himmel gibt Bescheid. Und dann kann man den Originaltext hinzufügen.

Aria van Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel and not by Bach...

[@paolopizzi5603]

Isn't it time people stop attributing this magnificent aria to J.S. Bach? He didn't write it, he just "collected" it, like it was in use at the time (no copyright in the XVIII century... ;) )

[@skilso]

Paolo Pizzi You must be one of those folk who likes to make out how well informed and smart you are.....a clever clogs. It does not really matter the piece is a winner and it is sung here with understanding.

[@alfonsooffermann5450]

Una voz espectacular la de la cantante soprano Sissel Kyrkjebo, ademas ella es muy linda y deleita su música...felicitaciones!!

[@prototropo]

A very tender, engaging performance! At 2:30, however, a half-tone photo of Pope John Paul appears behind the words "Amore Infinito," or "love without end." As a Roman Catholic, I find that conjunction to be obnoxious as applied to a one-dimensional figure of spiritual alienation, not sincere leadership. This music is a small but shining gem beloved by legion peoples across generations and borders. Unlike the current Pope Francis, or Pope John XXIII from the 1960s, John Paul was a reflexively conservative, anti-socialist and anti-sexual man of limited imagination and clueless historic intelligence, two realms of human endeavor and theologic scholarship that stand as landmarks of our civil and corporal evolution, respectively. He does not deserve to be remembered as a shepard of love or inclusion so valuable today.

[@rintintinification]

Beautiful!

[@IvanStJohn-hj8rp]

Come along

[@suzannesadiiqa]

They are both trying to sing this more quickly than the orchestra tempo in places...

[@l000kin]

This is too quick and too hard... It needs more rest (Ruhe), more reconciliation and more humility in singers voice and also the instruments should be more restful... One voice with continuo and better understanding is sufficient.

[@oswaldwellman7806]

l000kin I have a problem with the hard, unsympathetic tone of Domingo. Sissel is sweet and gentle.

[@rajaoberlin9471]

I don't have problem

If only the could control their vibratos.......

[@stefanstacker3536]

Are you any better???

[@bartbrush5574]

Stefan Christoffer Where in my 7 word comment did I say I was better? Read my comment again, or get someone to read it to you. I merely stated my preference for less vibrato.

[@stefanstacker3536]

Bart Brush No need to get exited, but your comment implied that the artists did not or not sufficiently control their vibratos. If you don't like the way these world renowned singers sing don't listen to them. What makes you think the world cares about your preferences unless you are Sir Roger Norrington? To assume this, the way you express them seemingly desperate and your suggestion to have your comment read to me contains a hint of arrogance. That prompted my comment.

[@bartbrush5574]

Stefan Christoffer Stefan, I apologize for my rudeness. I found your initial reply "Are you any better?" to be out of order, as it had nothing to do with my original comment. Of course I'm not better; I'm not even a trained singer. I love this piece, the performers, and the performance, but there is too much vibrato for my taste. I did not mean to suggest that the singers are out of control. With their level of skill, presumably they can apply any degree of vibrato they choose. I should have worded my original comment: "I wish they would reduce their vibratos." This is a matter of personal taste, and we are all entitled to our own, regardless of the preferences of Norrington or Domingo.

[@oliviahutchinson2280]

+Bart Brush They're not children. They don't need to sound like them. You are entitled to your opinion but I would suggest that that if you don't like this sound that you listen to boy sopranos or something. This is a mature adult sound and it is gorgeous.
