As Carly Simon once sang " Nobody does it better". Fischer-Dieskau and King are unbeatable in this duet. It's a shame that it is not sung in Italian, although Verdi also wrote it with a French libretto for the Paris Opera.

@AfroPoli : hai ragione amico mio, condivido al 100 %. Fischer-Dieskau era un TENORE cha cantava da baritono ecco il punto ! CIAO ! E' sempre un piacere " dialogare " con te !

Don Carlos was originally a play in German written by Schiller. If ever there was one opera that could legitimally by sung in German, it is this one... Why not, if one can sing "Macbeth" and "Otello" in English, or "Rigoletto" in French? What imports is what the artists can convey, and they have many to say!
Can everyone just stop commenting on how they think that Fischer-Dieskau was so horrible and that he should stick to lieder. I bet a million dollars he is better at Verdi than you will ever be. Just enjoy the music and don't comment unless you have something significant to point out. They did really well.

King is king. But it's ridicolozus, that Carrlo has darker voice than Rodrigo.
