Heidenröslein

Peter Schreier and Barbara Bonney both had great vocal abilities; however, they differed in their deliveries.  Bonney invoked a more light and playful tone.  Her voice was soft and angelic, which made the piece pleasing ot hear.  Schreier placed emphasis on his words, which made the performance shrewd to the ear.  Schreier used more intonation and diction when compared to Bonney.  Also, his animations made it difficult to enjoy because of the exaggerated facial expressions he used.  The musicality between the two performances were all in all quite different.
