About
In this special collection, legendary baritone Dietrich-Fischer Dieskau brings to life the lieder of Richard Strauss, compositions that reveal the personality of their composer in more depth than any of his other works, displaying refinement, cultured self-assurance and engaging humour. Mädchenblumen Op.22, Krämerspiegel Op.66 and the unforgettable ‘Ständchen’ Op.17 No.2 are just a few of the works featured, each a testament to Strauss’s genius in the genre.

If you want to explore the wealth of songs that Strauss wrote, then there's no better place to start than this budget 6-CD box, with the unmatchably classy singing of Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, accompanied by Gerald Moore at the piano. All of the familiar songs, such as Morgen, Allerseelen, and Cäcilie, are included, alongside lesser-known gems such as Traum durch die Dämmerung and Rote Rosen.
