Schubert: Die schone Mullerin D 795

"It's always exciting when one of the great Lieder singers of the day tackles a cornerstone of the repertoire, and Quasthoff's Schöne Müllerin does not disappoint. The baritone brings his familiar rich, sovereign tones and perceptive instinct for character to the cycle. How does he fare in an overcrowded marketplace? Reviewing the new release, Richard Wigmore puts him among the highest recommendations, and finds top spot almost too close to call."
