Dear Maggy, Thank you for providing the German text, which I have translated below: "Dear Juergen, I hardly need to tell you how much today's news of your...
Dear Claud and list, I think that the following web-links taken from P.Lorengar's homepage could be of interest to someone (the 3rd link is the address of the...
... Jeez, Celia, I think it's rather more cordial, nay I'd say even effusive, than that! "Sei herzlich anteilnehmend von uns umarmt". Umarmt seems rather more...
... Hi Emily, Cordial, certainly, but not effusive, I think . . . . Sorry. It was a quick effort at translation, and I went for sense over anything else. Your...

Dear Celia, Maggy and List, Thanks for the translation. And then my teachers complain about MY handwriting! They obviously haven't seen THIS one! The link to...
Dear Claude, this photograph is taken from the funeral service at Deutsche Oper Berlin and related to "Am Sonntag werde ich ein paar Worte sagen". Thanks for...
Hi folks, This is the message that I have sent to the members of Winterreise_Forum. I expect to move any relevant files and links to the Lieder_Forum before...
Dear Monika and List, I think it was pretty decent of DFD to have sent such an affectionate card to Pilar Lorengar's husband. Thank you for the information. ...
Dear Celia and List, In February I must hand in a paper for University on 'How Language shapes Thought' and all that. I have chosen songs to illustrate the ...

During my Christmas vacation, I listened to some of my DFD's recordings that I have not heard in years. I noticed how he could float those soft long high...
Dear Mary, Yes, you did it! And it is wonderful! A million thanks! That's a true DFD fan, I'd say, and I hope the other members don't read this or they'll ask...

Dear Gaetano, Darald & List, I haven't heard the "Don Carlo" recording, so I can't comment from direct experience. What I do know is that DFD does not sound...
... voice of the 23 years old DFD in this "Don Carlos" is more similar to a tenor's than to a baritone's voice? ***** It's been my firm opinion that DFD should...
