  • nicht nur wunderbar so perfekt geht ins herz Gott ist das wunderschön danke danke

  • Please do not judge Wunderlich by this awful soundtrack (thanks for the video, Gabba02, but the sound does not do it justice). If you want to know what this should sound like, listen to the DG recording of July 1966. Wunderlich's voice was crystal clear and steady as a rock. I have listened to hundreds of recordings of FW, studio and live, and have never once heard his voice crack. His recording of Lensky's second aria in particular is acknowledged as an incomparable classic.

  • Nein, gnadiger Herr ich habe nicht Unrecht, das ist meine Meinung. Nur eine Uneinigkeit. (Sehen Sie maninthesky07)

  • @Catoperatheater if you hear placido singin german....you want to die..for a native german speaker as me his speaking in german is horrible....so ur wrong!

  • This is a very precious document, as it illutstrates the enormous stage presence of Wunderlich. The sound quality is indeed very poor and trembling, since it was recorded on common magnetic audio tape, as was his last recital 1966.

    Interestingly he does in fact not crack on "Dichterseele" - if you listen closely the orchestra cracks likewise at that point. He did of course - like any singer - crack on scarce occasions, however not here.

  • @untamovaan I love german version of italian/french operas . for example - lovely Carmelites with Rothenberger and Emmy Loose from Viena.

  • I seem to be in the minority, but I didn't like this Wunderlich version. It sounds so tremulous and he does crack on some notes but in general, his voice doesn't suit Tchaikovsky. Only one tenor seems to be able to sing any role in any language and sound great - Placido!

  • bravi !

  • The quality of sound is very bad, nevertheless, it`s overwhelming... when I hear those two voices I get goose bumps.

  • Fassbaender indeed.
