      I believe it was in the mountains so presumably there was a Pass or two not far away!

      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

        Oh I was thinking of the Kleiber Pass!

          The only conductors and singers I can think of are Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau and Peter Schreier.

              It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

Can anybody out there suggest of whom we might be thinking, or have we imagined the whole thing?
                Searching Google, but excluding Rieu (-Rieu) , the first direct hit after spending sometime searching was Enya, who lives in Manderley Castle, Ireland:
