Beethoven's WoO ('werke ohne opuszahl', works without an opus number) numbers scare away a lot of listeners. They say, "Since Beethoven didn't care to give an opus number, he didn't care about it" or "Beethoven thought it was immature or second rate music." However, these are dazzling sets of variations, probably originating from Beethoven's live improvisations and therefore were not conceived to be published works (though most of them were published soon after they were written). Among these variations are some of the most challenging, creative, and wildly ingenious developments of piano technique of the 18th and early 19th centuries, the very same elements that would lay the foundations for Beethoven's 5 great Piano Concerti, his unsurpassed body of 32 piano sonatas, and his use of the piano in chamber music. ...

The 33 Variations on a waltz by Anton Diabelli Op. 120, commonly known as the Diabelli Variations, is a set of variations for the piano written between 1819 and 1823 by Beethoven on a waltz composed by Anton Diabelli. One of the supreme compositions for the piano, it often shares the highest honours with Bach's Goldberg Variations. The distinguished music writer Donald Francis Tovey has called it "the greatest set of variations ever written." Pianist Alfred Brendel has described it as simply "the greatest of all piano works." It also comprises, in the words of Hans von Bülow, "a microcosm of Beethoven's art." Or, as Martin Cooper writes in Beethoven: The Last Decade 1817 - 1827, "The variety of treatment is almost without parallel, so that the work represents a book of advanced studies in Beethoven's manner of expression and his use of the keyboard, as well as a monumental work in its own right." ...

Celebrating the 100th POST of An die Musik, I'm happy to offer you this wonderful collection of recordings, an EMI special edition of early recordings of Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, the greatest Lieder singer of 20th century, and a specially great interpreter of Schubert. I prepared this post very carefully, and I hope you enjoy it. Tank you very much for all visits, comments, sugestions, downloads and orderings! Stay in touch! Hugs! [Erlen]



As a lieder singer, conductor and author, Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau has worked intensively with Franz Schubert’s oeuvre and is largely responsible for the new and more congenial appreciation of the composer we have today. Fischer-Dieskau regards Schubert as something of a “central sun” among composers. In a conversation, he once said that Wagner, whose music cries out for attention, actually came too early; otherwise, Schubert would have had a much more profound influence on the 19th century.
It was Chiefly through his singing that Fischer-Dieskau debunked the myth of the more or less divinely inspired Schubert, into whose lap melodies simply fell… In this respect, the singer preceded instrumentalists such as Alfred Brendel and Sviatoslav Richter, who tore away the veil of convention from traditional Schubert interpretation. Fischer-Dieskau’s singing shed a new light on Schubert, revealing a man who was very much aware of what he was doing, even if “a God” or his genius had granted him the ability “to say how much I suffer”. Schubert’s lieder took a new credibility. Everyone who heard the young war veteran in Berlin for the first time in 1947 could feel this right away. An eyewitness, the author Karla Höcker, recalls in vivid detail the “very, very young man” who had rounded up Schubert’s friends Schwind and Bauernfeld before her inner eye, and who then proceeded to sweep away the visions of the imagination when “he began to sing. And this is what was so starling: the voice, the man, the music all became one. You had the feeling that he was spinning out the entire wonderful cycle from within himself.”

This was the predominant impression he made throughout his entire career as a singer: that he was singing as if the lied were being created at that very moment and, perhaps more importantly, as if he were singing his own, personal song. The ability to identify with one’s interpretation – in addition to talent and, obviously, a perfect technique – is one of the essential components of this art. Fischer-Dieskau would never tire of saying to his pupils: “You must become the one who’s singing.” …
