Amanda Roocroft (soprano) & Malcolm Martineau (piano) Recorded at Champs Hill, England April/July 2007 "If you are lucky, a song recitalist will take you to the edge of an inner world. A select few know how to draw you in further. And then there’s Amanda Roocroft. Her peachy soprano may be what we hear, but it is her heart that does the singing… This recital revealed Roocroft at the peak of her powers – a fully matured artist who combines technical and interpretative control with emotional freedom…. Such sincerity of feeling is only possible from someone who has lived a life. The striking quality about “None but the lonely heart” was the manner in which art concealed art – one of Roocroft’s golden charms. ..A rapturous “Ständchen”… impossible not to be swept along by “Heimliche Aufforderung”, and the ecstatic ardour of “Befreit” was overwhelming. Roocroft understands that the essence of the art song is not its outer beauty of form but its inner depth of feeling. She is a national treasure."

Elisabeth Schwarzkopf (soprano), Irmgard Seefried (soprano), Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau (baritone) "……..Also from Paris, comes Fischer-Dieskau’s Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen in a performance, with the admirable Paul Kletzki, that proves, if proof were needed, his command of every aspect of a singer’s art. In its absolute prime, the voice rings out freely in forte passages, reduces to a mellow mezza voce in piano ones, while the interpretative intensity is beyond reproach. And so, too, is it in four excerpts from a BBC studio recital a year earlier, the faithful Moore in attendance. Four of Schubert’s most popular songs are delivered with all the breadth of tone and intelligence for which the baritone was noted, culminating in a hair-raising Erlkönig, Moore as virtuoso as ever in the taxing piano part."
