Overview
Schubert’s Winterreise stands as one of the pinnacles of Romantic song literature, tracing the emotional odyssey of a heartbroken wanderer. Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau’s charismatic baritone, paired with Gerald Moore’s sensitive pianism, brings unparalleled depth to each of the cycle’s twenty-four songs—from the icy desolation of “Gute Nacht” to the resigned hope of “Der Leiermann.” Electrola’s meticulous stereo mastering captures every nuance of Fischer-Dieskau’s expressive phrasing and Moore’s nuanced accompaniment, making this edition a definitive reference for lieder aficionados.
