This week we are back to German Diction with vocal coach Michael Schütze and baritone Christoph Pohl. We focus on the text to Agathe's Aria "Wie nahte mir der Schlummer... Leise, leise" from Der Freischütz and Heinrich Heine's poem "Wenn ich in deine Augen seh'" from Dichterliebe. Since German has so many of them, this week we are concentrating on consonants! Double consonants, 2 in a row, 3 in a row, with some ideas on how to practice them, as well as the genitive (possessive) S. You can find the libretto for Der Freischütz here, just scroll down to musical number 8-Szene und Arie to find Agathe's aria. The text for "Wenn ich in deine Augen seh'" can be found here. There was also a movie version of Der Freischütz released in December of 2010, hopefully this trailer is viewable all over the world and not copyright protected!
