Brahms
Mutter Anne-Sophie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lullaby and good night
With pink roses bedtight
With lilies o'er spread
Is baby's sweet head

Lay you down now and rest
May thy slumber be blessed
Lay you down now and rest
May thy slumber be blessed

Lullaby and good night
You're your mother's delight
Shining angels beside
My darling abide

Soft and warm is your bed
Close your eyes, rest your head
Soft and warm is your bed
Close your eyes, rest your head

Sleepyhead, close your eyes
Mother's right here beside you
I'll protect you from harm
You will wake in my arms

Guardian angels are near
So sleep on, with no fear
Guardian angels are near
So sleep on, with no fear

Lullaby, and sleep tight
Hush, my darling is sleeping
On his sheets white as cream
With his head full of dreams

When the sky's bright with dawn
He will wake in the morning




When noontide warms the world
He will play in the sun

Nobody plays the third movement better than she does. Those opening double stops are exactly in tune, have powerful and clean attacks, and the vibrato is perfect. Brava!

Daniel Kurganov, Violinist

Check out the rehearsal footage of Szeryng. The 3rd mvt (incomplete).

In der Zeit war sie soooo phantastisch 👌👌👌👌🎼🎻,jetzt empfinde ich spielen,bzw interpretieren zu hart und auf "fast jeden Ton" Vibrato,was auf die Dauer doch bissl zuviel des Guten ist.

Aber sie kann was,keine Frage und ihre Interpretation ist einfach phantastisch haute superb"!!! Man ändert sich ja auch im Alter,sowohl als Mensch und auch als Musiker/Künstler,ich selbst bin Opernsänger,Tenor und Hobby-Bratscher,(doppelt gefährlich 🙃😉),aber jetzt in beiden Bereichen keine bösen Tenor-Witze,oder Bratscher-Witze!!🙃,weder noch🧑‍🏫🙃😉.
Wünsche ihr alles Gute und Euch allen auch,bleibt wohlauf 🍀🍀🍀🙏
