Aksel and Fritz, I love them both.

The greatest Dichterliebe I have ever heard. Wunderlich comes close in his last public recital.

@billyguns2 Oh, come on! Wunderlich comes close....was soll denn der Quatsch! WUNDERLICH!!!!

I first read your comment, expected a lot and then was disappointed listening to this fine singer.... Nobody comes even close to WUNDERLICH, that's for sure like nothing else....

Schiötz has long been my favorite lied singer. He sings with longing, sadness, and sweetness . This plus his impeccable vocal production and interpretation makes him the König of Dichterliebe.

Eine wunderbare Interpretation der Dichterliebe, großartig gesungen! Danke fürs Hochladen!

@billyguns2 As well as his second-to-last in Hannover (same year), which ironically, no one appears to know...

How lovely to have this from a beloved singer!

My first complete recordings of Dichterliebe [over 50 years ago] were by Schiotz, Husch and DFD: they are still my favourites.

What a fine singer! Reminiscent of older, beloved school of singing.

Thanks for uploading!

I became acquanted w/Aksel Shiotz's HMV recordings when I was 14 years old. I am now 56. Aside from Tauber, & Fischer-Dieskau, (Wunderlich is "zu schnell" Shiotz's interpretation is priceless. 5***** Cudos to Schumann, he gives the accompanist actually something to do to add to the spice of the piece. He was probably keeping Clara's pianism in mind when composing this cycle.
