We're all responsible for our own history. Just as the Jews said "Let his blood be on us and on our children" and then reneged, our pasts haunt all of us, and adults accept that.

Ich doch, es gibt eine Cd mit den TÖlzern und Robert King. Und die Fassung, die sie beim Schluss des leipziger BAchfest 2007 gab... Frederic Jost machte dieses Agnus Dei: Unglaublich! Die beste Fassung, die ich gehört habe. Die Aufzeichnung wurde in MDR-Figaro ausgestrahlt.
Oh! Früher, in der romantischer Ausführungstradition, war alles sooooo laaaaangsaaaaaaaaaam...! Wenn das Ende eines Satzes kommt, hab ich den Anfang schon verloren. Ein Glück, dass einige Jungen kamen, um alles zu ändern... Nämlich Harnoncourt, Leonhardt, usw. Das klingt so langweilig, und der arme Knabe mit so langen Sätzen...
Such a big, round tone ! Of course at the age of 15+, he had the advantage of additional years of practice and performances plus a more mature body, frequently the case with superb boy altos and sopranos. Although some people may dislike the slower tempo, it does give Peter the opportunity to show the beautiful tone of his voice.
@kozzzh - the boys joined the Hitlerjugend at the age of 10. Peter Schreier became 10, when the war was already over (July 1945). So - no, he was not in the Hitlerjugend.
@preruminator Those sluggish tempos were typical of Bach and baroque performances prior to the HIP revival. Of course, there are plenty of people even today who'll complain that the brisk tempos of "original instrument" performances are too fast!
Absurd. Were you there? Do you have a time machine? My degree was in this, and the fact is that, despite (or maybe even BECAUSE OF) all the self-righteous, self-assured posturing and pontificating of the same old narcissist fascist antigod priests on the basis of fact-free charismatic "leadership" , we don't really KNOW how fast the tempi were, probably in between the extremes. I don't know whether I love Schreier's voice, younger or older, or his conducting more. Gold standard.
Oh yes, only one of the greatest tenors of the 20th century. See many of his excellent recordings available for purchase by track or by disk at ww w. classicalarchives. com/artist/6403.html
Does anybody know of a CD or site where I can download a collection of Scheier's recordings? I already have his Matthew and St. John passions, but I'd love a collection of his cantatas especially.
@mojave19 There is a giant 75-cantata 26-CD set by Karl Richter and the Munich Bach Choir. Peter Schreier sings most of the tenor arias. This set or parts thereof is available on Amazon (on the Arkiv label). I have the whole set and I love it. However, I don't know where to find CDs of Schreier conducting Bach cantatas...I'd be interested to know about that.
Sieben Jahre als Solist. Das war und ist nicht alltäglich....:) Meiner Erinnerung nach verunglückte Peter Schreier mit seinem Pkw tödlich (?). Ich werde mich mal bei Google informieren.
Aber mir hat die Frage jetzt keine Ruhe gelassen und so habe ich noch einmal eifrig "geblättert":
Es war ein damals ebenfalls sehr bekannter Tenor, und zwar Peter Anders, der 1954 mit dem Pkw verunglückte, auch ein ehemaliger Knabenchorsänger (siehe Wikipedia !).
here he is 15, almost 16. most of the photos are from 1945/46 were he was 10-12, when he was still a boy soprano. so you are right - the voice does not go with the face ;)
What Hitlerjugend has do to with this recording?, I ask you. How long will this nonsense last?.

Schreier was Mauersbergers favourite boy of the choir. And that was right if one can see him singing Bach as adult tenor.

Lovely. Did he continue his singing career? When was this made? I wonder what the soup pan and the ladle were doing at 8.01. Thank you. Danke sehr.

@ifuliki - Peter Schreier became one of the most important german Tenors of the 20th century ...
About the soup - it was their lunch at the choir school and they were singing a prayer before - they still do that :)
aquaria85 1 year ago
@aquaria85 I guessed it was something like that but thought this was a choir practice.
They were in fact in the refectory. I really liked this video with stills from times past.Thanks

Laut Wikipedia müsste P. Schreier noch leben.
Mit welchem tödlich verunglückten Tenor habe ich ihn verwechselt ?

@wskfan du meinst vermutlich Fritz Wunderlich, der war allerdings kein Knabensolist ...

Fritz Wunderlich kann es nicht gewesen sein, da er zwar auch tödlich verunglückte, aber nicht anläßlich eines Verkehrsunfalles (siehe Wikipedia).
