Student: Iwona Sobotka Accompanying pianist: Madalit Lamazares Venue: Escuela Superior de Música Reina Sofía (Pozuelo de Alarcón, Madrid) 26/01/2006 R. Strauss: Vier letzte Lieder for soprano and orchestra TrV 296 (version for soprano and piano) - 4. Im Abendrot (J. von Eichendorff) Abstract: Professor Krause comments that it is better to take time on some notes to prepare them properly. Portamentos should also be avoided because the character of the music is very pure and elevated. In a certain passage the activity is still felt, so it is important to give it more life so that it does not lose energy, not dying. The tempo should not be gradually lost either, thus maintaining the life of the phrase. He corrects details of rhythm, pronunciation, and voice placement. *********** By donating to the School, you help support the free tuition of more than 150 young great talents from all around the world, while we bring Classical music closer to society.
