Schubert - "Des Tages Weihe"

November 27th is Thanksgiving Day in the US. I know that one of the things that I'm thankful for is Franz Schubert. This is a beautiful vocal quartet by Schubert and what a quartet of soloists here. The words are by an unknown poet. Des Tages Weihe Schicksalslenker, blicke nieder, Auf ein dankerfülltes Herz; Uns belebt die Freude wieder, Fern entfloh'n ist jeder Schmerz. Und das Leid, es ist vergessen, Durch die Nebel strahlt der Glanz Deiner Größe unermessen, Wie aus hellem Sternenkranz. Liebevoll nahmst du der Leiden Herben Kelch von Vaters Mund; Darum ward in Fern und Weiten Deine höchste Milde kund. Consecration of the Day Ruler of destiny, look down Upon a thankful heart; Joy enlivens us again, And all pain has fled away. Sorrow is forgotten, Through the mist shines The infinite brilliance of your greatness, As if from the bright garland of stars. Tenderly you took the bitter cup Of sorrow from your fathers lips, And thus far and wide Your supreme kindness became known. Elly Ameling (soprano) Janet Baker (mezzo-soprano) Peter Schreier (tenor) Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau (baritone) Gerald Moore (piano)
