Kurt Weill
Kurt Julian Weill (March 2, 1900 – April 3, 1950) was a German composer, active from the 1920s in his native country, and in his later years in the United States. He was a leading composer for the stage who was best known for his fruitful collaborations with Bertolt Brecht. With Brecht, he developed productions such as his best-known work The Threepenny Opera, which included the ballad "Mack the Knife". Weill held the ideal of writing music that served a socially useful purpose. He also wrote several works for the concert hall, as well as several Judaism-themed pieces.
Personal life
Weill was born on March 2, 1900, the third of four children to Albert Weill (1867–1950) and Emma Weill (née Ackermann; 1872–1955). He grew up in a religious Jewish family in the "Sandvorstadt", the Jewish quarter in Dessau, Germany, where his father was a cantor. At the age of twelve, Kurt Weill started taking piano lessons and made his first attempts at writing music; his earliest preserved composition was written in 1913 and is titled Mi Addir. Jewish Wedding Song.

"Speak Low" (1943). Music by Kurt Weill, lyrics by Ogden Nash. Performed by Kurt Weill. From the album Tryout on DRG Records. Speak low when you speak love Our summer day withers away too soon, too soon Speak low when you speak love Our moment is swift, like ships adrift, we're swept apart too soon Speak low, darling, speak low Love is a spark, lost in the dark too soon, too soon I feel wherever I go that tomorrow is near, Tomorrow is here and always too soon Time is so old and love so brief Love is pure gold and time a thief We're late, darling, we're late The curtain descends, everything ends too soon, too soon I wait, oh darling, I wait Will you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon

Kurt Weill : Youkali (Barbara Hannigan / Alexandre Tharaud)
La Soprano Barbara Hannigan chante Youkali, de Kurt Weill, avec le pianiste Alexandre Tharaud. Extraite de la pièce de théâtre musical "Marie-galante" de Jacques Deval (1934), "Youkali" est l'une des chansons composées pour la pièce par Kurt Weill.

The Life & Music of Kurt Weill with Susan Waterfall
In this video, we explore the cultural context of the life and music of Kurt Weill (1900-1950). Excerpts from historic and contemporary performance are used in this educational video. What happens when an impeccably trained young German composer decides he wants a new audience? When a nice Jewish boy starts hanging out with a Marxist poet and a Viennese flapper? When the distinction between highbrow and lowbrow becomes irrelevant? Susan Waterfall and her team have created a film describing Kurt Weill’s life and work, including a unique collection of both historic and contemporary performances of his songs. Weill communicated the soul and style of Modernity while he survived the sweeping historic changes of Weimar Berlin, the rise of Hitler, Paris in the early 30’s, and Broadway in the 40’...

Speak low when you speak love
Our summer day withers away too soon, too soon
Speak low when you speak love
Our moment is swift, like ships adrift, we're swept apart too soon
Speak low, darling, speak low
Love is a spark, lost in the dark too soon, too soon
I feel wherever I go that tomorrow is near,
Tomorrow is here and always too soon
Time is so old and love so brief
Love is pure gold and time a thief
We're late, darling, we're late
The curtain descends, everything ends too soon, too soon
I wait, oh darling, I wait
Will you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon

In this video, we explore the cultural context of the life and music of Kurt Weill (1900-1950). Excerpts from historic and contemporary performance are used in this educational video.
What happens when an impeccably trained young German composer decides he wants a new
audience? When a nice Jewish boy starts hanging out with a Marxist poet and a Viennese
flapper? When the distinction between highbrow and lowbrow becomes irrelevant? Susan
Waterfall and her team have created a film describing Kurt Weill’s life and work, including a
unique collection of both historic and contemporary performances of his songs. Weill
communicated the soul and style of Modernity while he survived the sweeping historic changes
of Weimar Berlin, the rise of Hitler, Paris in the early 30’s, and Broadway in the 40’s.

"Speak Low" (1943). Music by Kurt Weill, lyrics by Ogden Nash.
Performed by Kurt Weill. From the album Tryout on DRG Records.
Speak low when you speak love
Our summer day withers away too soon, too soon
Speak low when you speak love
Our moment is swift, like ships adrift, we're swept apart too soon
Speak low, darling, speak low
Love is a spark, lost in the dark too soon, too soon
I feel wherever I go that tomorrow is near,
Tomorrow is here and always too soon
Time is so old and love so brief
Love is pure gold and time a thief
We're late, darling, we're late
The curtain descends, everything ends too soon, too soon
I wait, oh darling, I wait
Will you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon

La Soprano Barbara Hannigan chante Youkali, de Kurt Weill, avec le pianiste Alexandre Tharaud.
Extraite de la pièce de théâtre musical "Marie-galante" de Jacques Deval (1934), "Youkali" est l'une des chansons composées pour la pièce par Kurt Weill. Youkali est un tango-habanera à l'origine instrumental, dont les paroles furent ajoutées en 1935 par Roger Fernay. Cette musique est un mélange de divers styles musicaux, inspirés du cabaret, du jazz, et des chansons populaires de Berlin. Les paroles de Youkali évoquent le regret d'un âge d'or, une certaine mélancolie, une volonté de fuite synthétisée dans le refrain :
Youkali
C’est le pays de nos désirs
Youkali
C’est le bonheur, c’est le plaisir
Youkali
C’est la terre où l’on quitte tous les soucis
C’est, dans notre nuit, comme une éclaircie
L’étoile qu’on suit
C’est Youkali

Kurt Weill
Kurt Julian Weill (March 2, 1900 – April 3, 1950) was a German composer, active from the 1920s in his native country, and in his later years in the United States. He was a leading composer for the stage who was best known for his fruitful collaborations with Bertolt Brecht. With Brecht, he developed productions such as his best-known work The Threepenny Opera, which included the ballad "Mack the Knife". Weill held the ideal of writing music that served a socially useful purpose. He also wrote several works for the concert hall, as well as several Judaism-themed pieces.
Personal life
Weill was born on March 2, 1900, the third of four children to Albert Weill (1867–1950) and Emma Weill (née Ackermann; 1872–1955). He grew up in a religious Jewish family in the "Sandvorstadt", the Jewish quarter in Dessau, Germany, where his father was a cantor. At the age of twelve, Kurt Weill started taking piano lessons and made his first attempts at writing music; his earliest preserved composition was written in 1913 and is titled Mi Addir. Jewish Wedding Song.

Tango ballad
by: Kurt WeillThere was a time, and now it's all gone by
When we two lived together, she and I
The way we were, was just the way to be
I cared for her, and she took care of me
And that arrangement seemed to work perfectly
The milkman rang the bell, I got out of bed
I opened up her purse, paid him what he said
I had a glass of milk, and back in bed I'd climb
You understand she was out working all the time
And so we lived, me and my little mouse
In that snug two by four where we kept house
That was a time, and now it's all gone by
When we were poor but happy, he and I
But when the day would bring no job to me
He'd curse and say how lazy can you be
I'll let him huff and puff
I've worked long enoguh
But when he drank too much, I'd get kinda grim
And shout the house down how I stood a clown like him
And then he'd turn around and try to bite my arm
And I would kick him in the teeth, meaning no harm
It was so sweet to be his little spouse
In that foul two by four where played house
Oh happy time and now it's all gone by
Until we quit each other, you and I
You stayed in bed all day and don't you smirk
You know we said that you'd do all the work
Now sleep's for the night they say
It ain't bad by day
So then I had my fill, swore I wouldn't stir
It looked like soon I would be taking care of her
You'd think a woman had a right to have one gripe
You left me flat. Well I just ain't the working type
We locked the door and each commenced to roam
