Am I the only one who was surprised that none of Tiana Lemnitz's recordings were mentioned?

The Chatbot's BARD favorite recording:


My favorite recording of the Wesendonck Lieder is the one by Jessye Norman with Gerald Moore on piano. Norman is an American soprano with a rich, powerful voice. She is known for her interpretations of dramatic roles, but she also has a gift for lyricism. In the Wesendonck Lieder, she brings out the beauty and passion of the music with great skill and artistry.

Moore is a British pianist who is known for his sensitive and intelligent accompaniments. He is a perfect match for Norman, and their partnership creates a truly magical performance.

The recording is available on the Philips label. It includes all five songs, and it is a must-have for any fan of Wagner or the Wesendonck Lieder.

Here are some other recordings of the Wesendonck Lieder that I recommend:

Nina Stemme with Leif Ove Andsnes (EMI)
Anne Sofie von Otter with Bengt Forsbacka (BIS)
Waltraud Meier with Daniel Barenboim (DG)
Karita Mattila with Leif Ove Andsnes (Decca)
Dame Janet Baker with Gerald Moore (EMI)

I hope you enjoy listening to these recordings as much as I do!
