I heard him in Holland, I agree with you.

As for me, we could as well stop comparing him with Fischer-Diskau, because I think Thomas is even better. But okay, everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Does anyone have his Der Erlking?

there is no way you can say he is famous only for his handicap - his voice on its own is magnificent. Therefore, dear Mr. Picapin just open another tab/window or close your eyes and listen. His interpretation is great - though, i must admit, i, too, prefer Fischer-Dieskau's interpretations - personal POV

You like his voice or not. It's matter of taste. My personal favorite baritone is Jorma Hynninen. DFD is ecxellent and flawless singer but maybe he is little bit overrated. From tenors my favorite is Peter Schreier, no question.

I heard Quastoff sing Die Schone Mullerin at Carnegie Hall in march 2006. It was the only time I have ever heard a singer in performance where I can say, for myself, that I heard ART, not a singer singing. It was a magical experience.

you gross me out too

. . . and you critiquing Thomas Quasthoff's choice of lieder on Youtube is not ridiculous? Please, feel free to write an article about your opinion in a credible singer's magazine or journal and then we'll take you seriously.

disgusting little monster, get off my computer now!

Ok, in this particular case is not so much a matter of techniqe but a matter of repertoire. This is not for his voice. Brahms fits his voice but him singing Schubert's Gute Nacht is as ridiculous as Thomas Hampson singing Verdi. |
