A valid observation, Maestro. I never attained the expertise to sing a Schubert song in performance. I could never develop the nimbleness to execute the turns well. Of course, I might have done better had I not waited until I was almost 40 before taking voice. One of the great regrets of my life.

But, no matter, I still sound good in the shower. :)

Eagles Up! Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

[Publius]

Here's one of my favorites of the Ernst Schulze settings from his last years.
