Der Hirt auf dem FelsenClassical Music, Der Hirt Auf Dem Felsen, Elly Ameling, Franz Schubert, Hans Deinster, Hanz Deinzer, Jorg Demus, Leider, Recordings![]()
I thought I ought to follow the example of my friends at Maggie’s Farm and, by way of sharing some personal knowledge of high points of the recorded repertoire, start making a regular practice of posting a link to particular performances and recordings. This particular lieder performance by Elly Ameling is truly remarkable, indubitably the best single performance of Hirt auf dem Felsen ever. I found immediately, simply glancing through references on-line, that my own opinion is widely, and very articulately, shared. The mp3 on YouTube is, alas! a pale shadow of the CD, which is, in turn, a pale shadow of the old LP version, but such is life. ———————————– Reviews: N.A. writes in a 1990 Gramaphone review:
