Overview
Fischer-Dieskau and Engel delve into Mayrhofer’s evocative poetry, from the rippling water imagery of “Am Strome” to the restless yearning of “Sehnsucht.” Fischer-Dieskau’s luminous baritone—precise, warm, and deeply communicative—combines with Engel’s refined pianism to reveal new depths in Schubert’s sixth Mayrhofer cycle. Each song flows naturally into the next, crafting a coherent dramatic arc of nature, love, and introspection.
