Gratuitous Friday – Anja Harteros in September

Anja Harteros sings September from Richard Strauss's Four Last Songs. I had trouble deciding which of the four songs to post. Each one sounded better than the last one. I settled on September, since it's...September (clever, huh?) 


This is from the recording with Mariss Jansons and the Bavarian Radio Symphony. While listening to this, I was thinking, "Gee, she'd be a great Marschallin!" And while browsing for a photo for this post, I found out she is a great Marschallin, or a least a pretty darned good one.

  1. I was googling and watching the very same clips last night! (I almost posted a Strauss song rather than the Schubert, too.)

    1. I keep forgetting how much I could check out online. I actually downloaded this performance! Are you actually inside my brain now? First Gretchen, then Anja! My fingers hurt just listening to the Spinnrade!

      Happy Harteros Friday!
