Diwtrich Fischer-Dieskau/ Hertha Klust, piano/ Rudolf Wille, piano

audite (Germany)

Wolf: Morike-Lieder

With the present recording the thirty-year-old Fischer-Dieskau demonstrates his subtle art of textual exegesis, bathed in the dolcezza and suavity of his still young baritone voice.
The selection from Hugo Wolf‘s Mörike Lieder, composed in a frenzy of creativity in 1888, comes from the archives of the former RIAS broadcasting company in Berlin (known today as DeutschlandRadio Kultur) and is now made available for the first time after careful restoration. Fischer-Dieskau is mainly accompanied by Hertha Klust, his pianist of choice in the early 50s.
Hardly any musician left behind as many recordings as Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, whose career began in the early postwar years and only came officially to an end in 1993. Besides his commercial recordings, a number of undiscovered gems lie in the archives of Europe’s radio stations. Some of them will be released by audite in the near future.
