Has there ever been a less affected performance?

    Beautiful. Entrückt. Quite slow?

    Geoffrey Parsons is the equally unaffected pianist.

    I recommend the solo piano version played by the great Gerald Moore.Extraordinary performance.

    Christa Ludwig is outstandingly beautiful, as ever. Also Edwin Fischer and Elisabeth Schwarzkopf in their Schubert Lieder recital., and Lotte Lehmann for those with even longer memories.

    There is a tranquillity to both the song and to this performance which is probably unrivalled

    This does my heart good to listen to her sing this.
    Thank you, Norman Lebrecht.
