She simply played the music. Even the pieces Stravinskij dedicated to Rubinstein and Horowitz that they avoided but did not admit that they found them too hard to play. Highly recommended! Agreed, her Scarlatti performances are stunning .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would never use those words to describe Ameling. I think she's an INCREDIBLE Schubert singer. One of the greatest. I guess we all hear with different ears.

I really do believe that we all experience music differently. Comparing notes & differing impressions is part of the fun of this forum.

Ameling is a perfect schubert performer (Subjectively and objectively) with a female touch . Nice and airy. Same Zodiac sign as Schubert !!!
