Why couldn't have been born so I could have seen him in his prime? He was the BEST heroic tenor; I don't see why all the fuss is made over Melchior. Lorenz was a FAR superior musician.
For those intrepid lovers of great Wagner, somewhat better sounds appears around 4:50. This gives us a poignant glimpse of vocal glory that once thrived and still thrills. If only there were complete recordings of operas with this Lorenz - a genuine Wagnerian god, so utterly different from the post-war Lorenz.
