SCHREIER,PETER/GEWANDHAUSORCHESTER LEIPZ - Volkslieder (Remastered) (Sealed) (CD)

The most beautiful German folk songs sung by the tenor of the century Peter Schreier! In 1975 the GDR label Eterna released the record "Peter Schreier singt Volkslieder". The original master tapes have now been remastered for the first time and will be available in modern sound from 17 May 2019 with the original Vinyl cover available in stores as CD. This program was recorded almost 45 years ago in Leipzig with great attention to detail. Sensitive and powerful arrangements, an outstanding interpretation and, of course, the impressive composition of the participants: Peter Schreier, musician of the Gewandhausorchester and Thomanerchor Leipzig as well as the Leipziger Rundfunkchor. Admittedly: today such a programme with German folk songs seems to have fallen out of time. And yet discovered in this timeless recording you can hear wonderful song melodies, ancient reverential verses, the velvety soft timbre of Peter Schreier or simply that one catches oneself quietly humming along with well-known sages
