"Mein guter Geist, mein besseres Ich!" "My good spirit, my better self." How lovely and romantic. Why do I not hear about Hermann Prey much? He was so bloody good. The accompanist (oops, sorry, "collaborative pianist" is the new PC term) is good too!Lovely! So damned good.

I consistently prefer Prey to his better known contemporary German baritone colleague.

Singers with voices as rich as this are rarely successful with lieder but Prey manages to "read the text" on the music with great sincerity and conviction. Subtle and effective gradations of tone within a well-sustained overall mood.

Hermann Prey was one of the best singers of Lieders, beautiful rendition of Widmung.

Yeah, no hint of effort in the higher registers, remarkable for a baritone. It is not fair.

What a beautiful voice and what sincere expression -- this is the perfect "Widmung" from the perfect lieder-singer. He was the complete package: golden voice, superb musicianship, unassuming performing style, and he looks like he could have been Ewan McGregor's father (that's a compliment).
