Hermann Prey, the great Austrian baritone known best for his German lieder interpretations, gives a heartfelt rendition of the standard from Cole Porter’s Kiss Me, Kate. Yes, perhaps his English could be better, but can you doubt the sincerity and true emotion evident in every measure? He treats the words like poetry and gives them no less weight than the music…one of the marks of a great singer.
Correction: An earlier version of this post had the wrong video, of Prey singing “On The Street Where You Live” from Lerner & Loewe’s My Fair Lady. I’d been debating which one to share with y’all and got the video URL incorrect. So what the heck, for today’s ShoSat you get not one but TWO classic tunez sung by Prey. Lucky you!
