Episode 6

This week we discuss the texts to Orlovsky's Aria from Die Fledermaus and "Morgens steh' ich auf und frage" (from Schumann's Liederkreis op. 24) with Stephanie Atanasov and Markus Marquardt. We also talk about diphthongs and the pronunciation of the letter S before T and P with coach Markus Henn. There is an online libretto for Die Fledermaus at the Opera Guide here, just scroll down to No. 7 Couplet for Orlovsky's Aria, and the text for "Morgens steh' ich auf und frage" can be found from the LiederNet Archive
