Baritone Peter Mattei has such an incredibly beautiful, deeply resonant, and amazingly expressive voice. Awe inspiring, spine tingling performance. My superlatives are long maxed out but still feeling short of properly describing his pure, wonderful voice. Lars David Nilsson's piano accompaniment is equally excellent. Bravissimo!!

I could listen Mattei-NIlsson "Winterreise" all day every day and still find something new and amazingly beautiful... but the daily acts of survival require "forced" abstension...and what a joy to return to this so profound, so rich, so enchanting, so moving, even exalted expression of the vast range of human emotions through solo voice and solo accompaniment....Bravo Peter!

I also own the CD and find this performance superb. It is fascinating to watch the Swedish translation as I know nothing of that language. But I cannot stay focused on the translation when Peter Mattei is such a master performer that standing by a piano he can display a full range of emotions. And as always, Lars Nilsson is grand, he is in complete control technically, in complete connection with Peter and his touch can make me cry.

One of the best and moving performances of "Die Winterreise" I have ever heard! Excellent voice, technique and expression!

Peter Mattei is one of my idols in song and opera. His CD recording of Winterreise was one of my benchmark recordings while I was preparing my Winterreise. I discovered this video recording after the CD and I can easily say that their rendition here is even superior than in their CD. There are many lessons to take from his plain but effective way of singing, his coloring, nuances etc. Bravi!

So glad to learn of the CD, though I can't imagine it being an improvement on this... but the voice and expression and body language, and musicality of this great man is so compelling it would be comforting to have "back up."

Their CD recording is in a league with a very few records of all time, and I am speaking in general, not just recordings of the Winterreise. Certainly the most perfect record I own. And Lars David Nilsen is equally the best pianist and accompanist I have ever heard. I hope they will do more Lieder cycles together, maybe Dichterliebe. And his German is sublime, better than all native speakers I've heard (and I'm a native speaker myself).

Mesmerising! Mattei is one of the outstanding performers of all time...pure Gift.

No one has a voice as beautiful as Mr. Mattei's! I would so love a translation in English, though.

When I listen to this with the windows open the little vogelein (boydies/birds/avians) start singing too!!! 🥰😍🤩Sadly, they fly away when I try to sing along as well... 🤣

Guaranteed excellence for one hour and fourteen minutes.. I am speechless.

"Mesmerised," "hypnotised" by this great artiste - expression, interpretation, and aaah, the voice! I should be promoting my own literary works, but Peter Mattei has awoken the composer within, and now melodies and harmonies intrude on my other creations!!! Schubert was dying of syphilis at the time of writing - not hard to contract in Germany at the time... and the inner conflict is evident in the composition which transits from extreme anguish to moments of serenity followed by anguish...of course the text is a love story, but again, open to so many interpretations of metaphor. All those gimmicky, overblown directors at the Met and Paris Opera should sit through this twenty times until they GET IT. It's the Music. It's the VOICE. It's the HEART...not the danged sets and disruptive gimmicks. Bravo Peter - my inspiration, and the great Lars David Nilsson, and my other, different "music love," counter tenor, Philippe Jaroussky. Oh to hear them together!!!

What an exciting performance. One that I will be playing many times.

Боги, до чего же великолепен Маттеи!! И пианист ему под стать, просто восхитителен! Аплодирую и восхищаюсь стоя!

How beautiful Peter Mattei's voice is. This is gorgeous. I love Jonas Kaufmann's version of this too.

What an amazing experience. What an extraordinary interpretation of Winterreise! And Lars Nilsson gives Schubert's lieder an almost contemporary, almost atonal sound... but Mattei...yikes - words fail... he brings a depth to the Winterreise that overshadows the sorrow...and requires further study.

Peter Mattei’s work here is hands down the most beautiful version of this great piece. I own about 20 recordings of it.

my favorite Don Giovanni today!

Just listened to Hermann Prey (Gut Nacht and Lindenbaum) and last night the entire Winterreise by Fischer Diskau - and while those two great baritoni set an extraordinarily high bar, our Peter Mattei "leapt right over it!!!" The different styles are interesting and beautiful, but there's something exceptionally compelling about Mattei. An amazing "interpreter" as well - hard to believe that this is the same performer who brings such a naughty edge to "Figaro" in the Barber of Seville and an abusive variant of Don G in the Paris Opera version (nasty director) or the gently seductive Don G in the Met Opera version. This is him at his finest: just the music, thank you, just the accompanist and "The Voice..." Grazie! Tack, Peter!

I’ve seen Mattei onstage quite a few times. To my ears, he really has one of the very best and most beautiful voices. The only problem for me with this video is that I’d prefer a German or English translation. I don’t know any Scandinavian language and it becomes distracting, but still a minor detail.

He knows what he is singing which is very nice and it's a captivating performance. I do feel he chops up the lines a bit too much which is a bit of a modern thing, to make it more speech-like, but a more sung presentation gives it more depth in my opinion. Finally for my taste, he is a bit too angry which makes the antagonist less sympathetic.

@larkatdawn

Жыл бұрын

Poor baritones , get to play the villains while the tenors enjoy most of the romantic leads! I hear anger, but I hear more anguish, and it appears that Peter Mattei delves deeply into music and text, because the anguish I hear in the music is the sorrow of a beautiful, sensitive composer, dying of syphilis at a very young age - 32. (No judgies, not hard to contract in Germany of that period) So Muller's love tragedy becomes a metaphor for another tragedy.

"Rückblick" your interpretations.

Eine sängerisch bemerkenswert gute Interpretation der Winterreise. Die Klavierbegleitung ist allerdings viel zu laut und dominant - das mindert den Hörgenuss (und die künstlerische Gesamtqualität der Liveaufnahme) leider entscheidend, weil Sänger und Pianist akustisch keine Einheit bilden. Wirklich schade. Ich frage mich: Haben die für die Aufnahme Verantwortlichen (Regisseur/Aufnahmeleiter/Tontechniker) da gepennt oder waren hier Amateure am Werk??

There is something archetypal about the figure of the Hurdy-Gurdy Man. I recognize him as an image first encountered in my childhood. His origin is Eastern Europe. Why do I think he might be Jewish? The Fiddler on The Roof. The Rag Picker. The Outcast The Stranger among us who has looked upon things we all shy away from and so, we shy away from him all the while knowing he has something wise and terrible to teach us. Someone recently said to me that more than being loved, we need to feel that we belong. I thought about that and it feels right ! Family, Religion, Nation, City Class Sexual orientation Local Sports Team College Fraternity Political party These are things we belong to. We support them. We exalt them. We defend them. We oppose those who attack them. We feel elated when another member of our tribe succeeds. What does it feel like when we belong to no group? Who among us does not belong to any group? The beggar. The homeless The elderly living alone. The black man in a white world. The mis-shapen The grotesque. This is the Hurdy Gurdy man.....the Leiermann The one we fear most because he lives our greatest nightmare. But when we are dying we feel the ultimate alone-ness. We are alive but no longer belong to the world of the living. Perhaps Schubert, who was dying when he wrote this, was making common cause with the Leiermann. Outcasts... together. " May I come along? Will you play my song ?"

The words are those of the jilted poet, Johann Wilhelm Muller. Wiki has him dying at 1827 but writing Winterreise in 1828. Might explain the "haunting" quality of the text. 🤥You may be right about the Leiermann, the musician, the man with talent. The most isolated people in history are the geniuses...we are sought out when our gifts are needed, then abandoned when the thieves make their millions from our works. We invoke jealousy, so we play "dumb," toe a fine line - the ultimate outcasts, the ultimate minority, but will leave it there... Two creative geniuses, Schubert and Muller, and two interpretive geniuses, Mattei and Nilsson. Together - a taste of Heaven...Sometimes I wonder if even the angels stop to listen to these darlings...

A remarkably good vocal interpretation of Winterreise. The piano accompaniment, however, is much too loud and dominant - this unfortunately reduces the listening pleasure (and the overall artistic quality of the live recording) decisively, because singer and pianist do not form an acoustic unit. It's a real shame. I ask myself: Did the people responsible for the recording (director/recording manager/sound engineer) sleep there or were amateurs at work here??
