Fischer-Dieskau’s first recording of Die Schone Mullerin with Gerald Moore displays the singer in his youthful prime. He recorded the work several times again but without the same level of spontaneity which is the hallmark of this reading. A ‘must buy’ for lovers of both Fischer Dieskau and lieder singing. Super-budget price.
‘Fischer-Dieskau lives the part of the young miller intensely from the first note he sings to the last… He gives an impression of utter spontaneity, as if not a note had been written down, but as if everyone was being created there and then : a wonderful instance of art concealing art.’ Gramophone

“This legendary 1951 recording, one of Fischer-Dieskau's earliest and most spacious of this cycle, reveals painstaking verbal detail, and the unique creative rapport he enjoyed with Gerald Moore.”
