Great Singers
With Peggy Reynolds.
Fritz Wunderlich had one of the most glorious tenor voices of the century. He was at the top of his profession, and glittering opportunities were stretching out before him when, in 1966, he fell down a flight of stairs, fractured his skull and died without regaining consciousness. A great singer was cut down in his prime. Including excerpts from: Lara Granada
Fritz Wunderlich (tenor),
Graunke Symphony Orchestra, conductor Hans Carste
Carl Millocker Der Bettelstudent
Fritz Wunderlich (tenor),
Berlin Symphony Orchestra, conductor Werner Schmidt-Boelcke
