Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, baritone. Christoph Eschenbach, piano

Die schöne Müllerin (op. 25, D. 795).

Song cycle by Franz Schubert on poems by Wilhelm Müller.

Filmed at the Salle Pleyel, Paris, 2 April 1992


the profile of DFD at andante.com reports:

"Fischer-Dieskau ended his more than 45 years of concert activity at the beginning of 1993. He made his unannounced farewell to public performance with his participation in a gala concert at the Bavarian State Opera in Munich on December 31, 1992. Since that time he has kept himself fully occupied as a teacher, conductor, reciter and author."


He was born May 28, 1925. Thus, he was just under two months from his 67th birthday when this "schöne Müllerin" was filmed.

To see him sing "Der Erlkönig" in his prime, view this clip!

    one of the three great lieder cycles written by the king of this genre, Franz Schubert and with the energic, cristalline and softly melodic voice of this great baritone, the perfect combination a Schubert's lied and Fischer-Dieskau and to put the cream on the top Christoph Eschenbach at the piano, extraordinary!

    I should be so "past my prime." DFD is

    still an engaging performer here with that

    unique quality of a baritone sounding like

    a tenor. One of a handful of singers to

    deserve the designation of "Great." Talk

    about nuanced singing. Aren't you a little

    sick to death of the cardboard cutouts

    we are asked to tolerate from many of

    the new and not so new crop of "artists?"

    Thank you for this posting.

    Eins will ich mal klarstellen.Auch,wenn ich schon mal gegen Fischer Dieskau schrieb,heißt das nicht,das ich gegen ihn bin.Auch,wenn ich Andere lieber höre.Aufnahmen von 1948 bis etwa 1970 ziehe ich von ihm allerdings vor.Auch,wenn mir dieses hier weniger gefällt.Das wollte ich mal loswerden.

    Als Vergleich können Sie mal Hermann Prey im gleichen Alter hören.Das ist ein großer Unterschied.Fischer Dieskau sang schon besser als in dieser Aufnahme.Diese wird von Sängern, die weniger gut sind,noch übertroffen.Mir gefällt er hier nicht.

    Der Meinung bin ich auch.Allerdings war Fritz Wunderlich immer besser,nicht nur manchmal.In diesem Alter hätte er besser gesungen oder aufgehört.Hermann Prey hat noch kurz vor seinem Tod mit Erfolg einen Liederabend gegeben.Von ihm habe ich von 1997 sehr schöne Aufnahmen.Ich kenne eine Frau von 89 Jahren,die im Chor singt und eine sehr schöne Stimme hat.Wenn man das auch nicht direkt vergleichen kann.Es geht mir hier um das Alter.

    D.F.Dieskau schätze ich.Aber diese Aufnahmen gefallen mir nicht.Die"Winterreise",wo er einige Jahre jünger war,gefällt mir besser.Hermann Prey sang dagegen noch mit 68 Jahren herrlich.Obwohl er schwer krank war."Die schöne Müllerin" habe ich in diesem Alter noch nicht von ihm gehört.Das heißt aber nicht,das er sie in dem Alter nicht gesungen hat.Die"Winterreise"und Anderes habe ich von ihm aber.Fritz Wunderlich sang auch besser Man kann aber nur die frühen D.F.D.Aufnahmen mit ihm vergleichen.

    DFD made me love Lieder. His "Mullerin" is, in my opinion, one of the sweetest, best sung, along with Hermann Prey's. I have enjoyed his singing for decades, and feel the urge to salute him on his departure on tour to another dimension.
