My Hun. Friend: Back, With Bach!

Dr. Mathide Egyed gave her permission to post this for you guys, and offers her appreciation for your kind comments in the other two threads where I recently presented her music.

She has a pretty keen sense of humor, and said that I must be the most effective agent that she could wish for! I just thought that some of you fellows would enjoy her singing.

She apologizes for the coughing and other minor audience sounds that tend to come with live performances, especially in a quiet church. Almost didn't send this, because of that factor. Of course, that isn't her fault.

As before, your comments are valued, and I'll pass them on, in hopes of encouraging her to sing more in English. I'm not sure which language she sings in here. May be Hungarian; may be Latin. I couldn't make out enough words to know. Might be German. It is Bach...

I don't plan to make her posts a weekly thing: this is probably the last, unless she makes an especially interesting video for us. But I think you'll like this better than the Disney video. (Mathilde is in her mid-20's, but still likes Disney...)

Enjoy!

Great voice!

Most likely sung in Latin, but she sounds good in every language I've heard her sing in so far.

Had the recording device been plugged directly into the church's sound system, her performance might have brought tears of joy to the eyes of Bach lovers.

My ears aren't as good as they used to be, but I detected some rhythmic clicks and pops, so I'm pretty sure the music was from a vinyl LP and I suspect Mathilde's microphone was mixed with the record player's output and someone in the congregation made a discreet recording with a cellphone or similar device with an omnidirectional mike, hence the coughs overpowering her singing.
