CD Reviews

Fischer-Dieskau when he was young and hungry
Theodore Shulman | NYC | 06/04/2010
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I have always hated Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau. I usually find him flutey and snooty, all trills and frills. And he sang a great many roles which were completely inappropriate to his voice, which is a soft lyric-chamber baritone, not a heroic or Verdian voice at all. His attempt at Hans Sachs is an outrage.



But here he is singing Schubert lieder, exactly what his voice was suited for. And it's very early in his career, 1948, the same year as his operatic debut. He's intelligent and focused, and he has not lost his sincerity nor developed the affectations which marred his subsequent career.



If you must listen to DFD, this is the CD to own."
