Kathleen Ferrier - Kindertotenlieder: No. 3, Wenn dein Mütterlein download song

was she limited to the mezzo range? she seems to dip into the contralto register... anyway I may like these better than Baker's, and that's saying something! (Baker is swamped by Baribolli's orchestra, so maybe it's hard to compare anyway)

Thanks for uploading this beautiful recording. Kathleen Ferrier was one of the best singers to perform this Mahler song. It touches me.

It is one of my favourite interpretation of that sad songs. It's so beautiful and touchig, especially 1,28 and 3,23. I always cry at that moments...

So Beautiful. No wonder it was played at Nico's funeral in 1988.

The best Contralto I have heard,... bar none.

A moving post Chopinlover49, and long may you play it. Many thanks Violinthief for providing this lovely recording.

I play the Kindertotenlieder on my daughter's Steinway all the time and rarely get through it without choking up with emotion. Every time I play it, I think of Kathleen Ferrier singing these immortal songs with so much feeling and tender emotion.

I wish there was a "LOVE" button in addition to the "Like" & "Dislike". She had such a noble, mother-earth sound.
