I'm an opera singer too and over his sublime voice Hermann prey is an incredible interprete. The today popular baritones are more busy to their Marketing image and product just beautiful sounds without passion and hearth. Unfortunately, Hvorostovsky is a perfect exemple of that, but he has a wonderful instrument....that's all.
To me, the Hermann Prey pianist is fabulous and they had a long way together these two fellows... :-)
Prey's interpretation of this cycle has to be one of the most heartfelt ever. Thank you for sharing this with all of us and hopefully help the younger generation discover this unique ARTIST.

I am deeply touched by this Dichterliebe. He sings it with an uncommon warmth and introspection. His expression is sincere and heartfelt.

Beautiful tenderness Prey brings to this great Romantic song cycle. Oh, and happy 200th birthday, Robt. Schumann!

The piano is a bit loud and distrcting above the singing, or perhaps the audio quality of the recording (in relation to his singing) isn't great.
