Not a good week to be a singer with a distinctive voice. I have so many Fisher-Dieskau recordings and love them all
RIP Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, one of the finest baritones ever

Never heard of him before today, but they played some excerpts of his singing in the news. Great voice.

Your change of avator threw me for a second...Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau's baritone voice was pure bliss on his day. Bless him and R.I.P.

Here he is with the first song of Schubert's "Winterreise" (Winter Journey), appropriately entitled "Gute Nacht"
