| Label: AUDITE
Catalog: AUD95634
Format: CD Wholenote Discoveries - July 2010
Included in this release of four archive recordings is the recital of Mahler Lieder recorded live on 14 September 1971 in the Philharmonie in Berlin. These discs are copied directly from the master tapes of Deutschlandradio so the fidelity of the stereo recording is first class. By 1971 Fischer-Dieskau was established as the consummate lieder singer, his beautifully shaded tones and sensitivity to the texts never more in evidence than here. Daniel Barenboim, his accompanist, was a perfect colleague. There are four songs from Lieder und Gesänge aus der Jugendzeit; two Rückert-Lieder, Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen; and Des Knaben Wunderhorn. Full texts are enclosed.
