WINTERREISE - DIETRICH FISCHER-DIESKAU ALFRED B...

Franz Schubert's song cycle Winterreise was written late in his life. It is regarded both as a
highlight of the genre and as the touchstone by which lieder singers are judged. To succeed in
interpreting Winterreise is the artistic equivalent of a patent of nobility for a singer. The
song cycle certainly became one of Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau's calling cards and it is probably
this work that made the baritone an international household name. Time and again his
interpretation could be heard in the concert hall  at festivals  on the radio and on numerous
records. In this recording made for the Sender Freies Berlin in January 1979  we see two of the
leading musicians of their day in the prime of their lives and at the very peak of their art
and experience appearing together in the service of Schubert's Winterreise. Both the
experienced Schubert lieder singer and the Austrian pianist  known throughout the world for his
authoritative interpretations of Schubert's piano music - had performed Winterreise together
frequently between 1975 and 1989. In a way  Fischer-Dieskau's approach to Schubert's
Winterreise has become the touchstone for today's singers. This recording of rehearsal and
concert offer a glance into the development of a masterly interpretation of a masterwork.
