This CD contains a number of legendary Mahler renditions from the 1960s by Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau on DGG. The Lieder Eines Fahrenden Gesellen sounds almost like a mini opera in Fischer-Dieskau's interpretation. In the Kindertotenlieder he sometimes shows the emotions by syllable. And then he also adds subcutaneous emotions that are not even directly mentioned in the text. The pale resignation of… Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen (Rückertlieder) is no less impressive. They are performances that have never actually been surpassed, except perhaps because of the performances that the same singer recorded for EMI in the fifties. The listener therefore has something to choose: stereo on DGG with Kubelik and Böhm, or mono on EMI with Furtwängler and Kempe. (Both versions have now found their way into the top 50 lists that were compiled internally here on the occasion of 50 years of CDR). The DGG performances have been re-released on CD more often, including in the Fischer-Dieskau Edition of 2000. This is, however, the CD in the DGG series The Originals, to which a number of early Mahler songs have been added as a bonus. (HJ)more
