Hermann Prey - Winterreise flac album

Hermann Prey ( Berlin, 11 July 1929 – Krailling, 22 July 1998) was a German lyric baritone, who was equally at home in the Lied, operatic and concert repertoires. His American debut was in November 1952, with the Philadelphia Orchestra and Eugene Ormandy, and his American recital debut took place in 1956, at New York's Carnegie Hall.

Listen to either of Prey's recordings of Winterreise and say that. Here is a consummate artist whose artistry is at the service of interpreting the music. The second of Prey's recordings is one of the great Winterreises.

Some critics have dismissed baritone Hermann Prey as a mere crooner, as if his beauty of tone and phrasing, his mere concern with beauty, were enough to damn him. They point to his use of subtle portamento, his discreet glissando, and his occasional vibrato at the end of phrases - to his employment of the simple tools of the singer's trade - as signs of his lesser status as an interpreter. They say that the singer who would use such vocal tricks could hardly be taken seriously as an artist. Listen to either of Prey's recordings of Winterreise and say that.
