Blessed with a crystal-clear voice, exquisite diction and a natural lyricism, Fritz Wunderlich remains hugely admired, 50 years after his death, by fellow musicians and in his native Germany. The BBC Music Magazine placed Wunderlich among the Top 4 Tenors in the World, along with Plácido Domingo, Enrico Caruso and Luciano Pavarotti. Presented in 180 g heavyweight vinyl pressings by OPTIMAL. Includes a voucher with a unique code to download the digital audio files (MP3) of the full album for free. Wunderlich was marvellous to work with he learned quickly, came thoroughly prepared and was fully aware of his capabilities and what he wanted to achieve...he had performed the works often in recital and sang them without any sense of strain or technical problems.
