I wish I could give this release more than 5 stars: it's terrific!!!
I knew little about the German tenor Fritz Wunderlich (1930-1966), except reading the accolades given to his recordings and performances by reviewers in "American Record Guide" over the past 13 years. I knew Wunderlich recorded the role of Tamino in the famous DG ...

Paul Abraham, Milton Ager, ...

Arena Records UK, 2001

If you like great music
The Comedian Harmonists of pre-war Germany had a beautiful sound. Their voices were their instruments and they could sound like a symphony. If you saw the movie (you should!) then you will want this music.

Tuxedo, 1996

Great album except for the Title Track
The third man theme orchestration on the first track is simply awful (bad enough to be humorous)! The rest of the CD is delightful with just zither with accordian accompanyment. There might be other instruments, but I'm not sure. Karras used a zither that was ...
