I'm speaking of songs here; Art songs in particular. Each nation has songs that set some of their nations' favorite poets; and, these two nations have a large number of them. I have no favorite as I like all the songs that I post. I've performed most of them and they always seem to get a good audience response. So, Dear reader, kindly listen to a least a sample of each and tell me which of the two pleases you more today.
I love your comments and posts of your favorites also... please feel free to do that here, too. Thank you!

    The first operas were in Italian and in my mind they sound the best.

    Chaya, the Italians got the inspiration from Greek Theater... but, indeed they sort of invented what we have today. Italian is such a good language to sing in and to listen to. Thank you dear friend for responding here.

    Both languages are great. Wanted to learn them both but I think German is cooler.

    Ah ... and now I hear it, I hear you have on my Fav - you are a genius - Pav - it is music to my ears ... never be another like him, I'd say: He was a gift.
    We are just so blessed to live in this modern time when God has imbued us with recording - both visual and audio - to witness these things.

    I like both. German is cool, Italian sounds more passionate or intense. The way the language is spoken. Given the two I'd like to learn the former first. Russian is another language I think is cool.

    Russian is cool. I'm so glad to see you here, Deadly, and thanks for your input.

    I think the Italian flows better than the German. The German was awesome too, but it doesn't have the same flow to it.

    The introduction is in German but Mr. Liebe's aria is in Italian.

    I learned German in school, and in college, so I recognized it. :)

    Pavarotti is singing in Italian, of course. Knowing that Luciano is no longer around breaks my heart.

    Tough call for me MisterD.. Both were very different, but there was something I liked about both men. However, I thought the performance from Italian Pavarotti was much better.
