Schubert: Winterreise / Fischer-dieskau, Brendel

FISCHER-DIESKAU; BRENDEL

Wholenote Discoveries - July/August 2011
This DVD presents a Winterreise sung by Fischer-Dieskau with Alfred Brendel live in Siemensvilla, Berlin in 1979. Even though pianist and singer have each performed and recorded this cycle many times, both together and with others, this studio production, without an audience, is very special. Their combined insights, eagerly shared between the two as seen in the 56 minute rehearsal sequences, produce a memorable experience. Bruce Surtees
