5.0 out of 5 stars
A masterful performance, April 25, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Schubert: Schwanengesang (Audio CD)
Of all my recordings of Schubert Lieder, this is the one I return to again and again; while Fischer-Dieskau is the generally acknowledged expert in the field, Hotter is more satisfying in these performances. His voice is much fuller and richer, and the depth of subtle expression he brings to each song is simply wonderful, whether projecting the titanic suffering of "Der Atlas," or the simple tenderness of "Die Taubenpost." Gerald Moore is Hotter's equal in every way, providing a superb, perceptive accompaniment.
A must-have for the serious Lieder lover.
