 | Schubert: Die Winterreise / Fischer-Dieskau
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $3.75 The most popular of DFD's many "Winterreise" recordings. Not my favorite, but it seems to be everyone else's!

 | Great Recordings Of The Century - Schubert: Winterreise / Hotter, Moore by Hans Hotter
Buy new: $11.98 / Used from: $4.34 A classic performance. Hotter sounds a bit more like Wotan than a suffering human, but he is incredibly moving.

 | Decca Legends--Schubert: Winterreise / Pears, Britten by Franz Schubert
Buy new: $11.98 / Used from: $5.69 I have a category called "geek Winterreise," and this is the prototype. Pears knows all about alienation, and Britten's playing is simply amazing. A must-have for collectors!
|
 | Schubert: Winterreise
Buy used from: $21.95 This is a very popular recording that doesn't find much resonance with me. Its advantages are a tenor singer and a fortepiano.
|
 | Schubert: Winterreise
Buy new: $6.98 / Used from: $3.65 There used to be a debate about whether women should sing this cycle, now they just do, and this is the best, in my opinion.
|
 | Schubert: Winterreise (Arranged for Tenor & String Quartet)
Buy new: $16.99 / Used from: $8.90 Tenor Christian Elsner commissioned this arrangement of "Winterreise" with string quartet.
|
 | Schubert: Winterreise
Buy new: $11.98 / Used from: $5.31 Fischer-Dieskau's first "Winterreise" recorded in 1948, when he was 23. Even then, he had a better grip on the cycle than many more mature singers.
|
 | Schubert: Die Winterreise / Lehmann, Ulanowsky by Lotte Lehmann
Buy used from: $29.95 Not the first female singer to perform "Winterreise" in its entirety (which was probably Elena Gerhardt) but the first recording by a woman. Well worth listening to.
|
 | Schubert: Winterreise, Original 1827 Version
Buy new: $17.49 / Used from: $4.95 This is the original "Winterreise" of 1827, the first 12 songs, accompanied by a fortepiano. Its main value is as a curiosity, in my opinion.
|
 | Richard Tauber Sings Lieder of Schubert & Schumann (Pearl)
Buy used from: $29.95 Richard Tauber's recording of the first 12 songs of "Winterreise." A recording revered by many.
|
 | Schubert: Winterreise (in English)
"Winterreise" in an English singing translation by baritone Jeffrey Benton. A curiosity.
|
 | Zender--Schuberts "Winterreise": Eine komponierte Interpretation by Hans Zender

|
 | Gerhard Hüsch Sings
Buy new: $36.98 / Used from: $21.99 One of the great historical recordings of the cycle.
|
 | Schubert: Die Winterreise
Buy used from: $12.99 In my opinion, one of the most bizarre "Winterreise" performances of all time, but if you like excess, this may be for you.
|
 | Schubert: Winterreise
Buy new: $11.98 / Used from: $4.94 Brendel pushes DFD to the limits, interpretatively and vocally. A scorcher, if you like this sort of thing. (I do.)
|
 | Schubert: Die Winterreise
Another significant historical recording.
|
 | Schubert: Winterreise (Live from Wigmore Hall)
Buy used from: $7.54 Not yet released. This may be very interesting, although I don't think the Goerne-Brendel partnership has been that successful . . . .
|
 | Schubert: Winterreise by Franz Schubert
Buy new: $8.98 / Used from: $5.00 Quasthoff does one of the most moving and powerful live "Winterreise" performances I have ever heard. I don't think it translates as well to CD, but you decide.

Listmania!
