Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
This generous double-CD compilation gives a remarkable overview of the career of one of the greatest voices of the century. The earliest recording is from 1960, when Fischer-Dieskau was 35, the latest from 1978--and it's fascinating to hear the way in which his voice loses a little of its shimmer and gloss but gains an amazing velvety broadness and richness over this 18-year period. Though there are some Lieder at the end of disc 2 (all Schubert) the tracks are mostly operatic arias and ensembles. This is another big plus in the set's favour: not only do you get to hear Fischer-Dieskau at his prime, but plenty of other great singers as well. The foremost Arabella of recent times, Lisa della Casa, can be heard in that role, as can Gwyneth Jones as Salome, as well as Christa Ludwig, Placido Domingo and Gundula Janowitz in a host of other parts. Some of the excerpts are simply terrific: Karajan's "Entry of the Gods into Valhalla" from 1968 is spine-tingling, partly because Fischer-Dieskau's voice is placed in front of the sound, which gives an effect both of command and dislocation. This is two hours of heaven.--Warwick Thompson
