Hermann Prey Sings Erlkonig

Submitted by a reader, this recording of Hermann Prey singing Erlkonig an 1986 gives a totally different take on the song from the Ann Sofie von Otter performance. Both are with orchestras, but not only are the voices very different, but the orchestration of this version is much more intricate. Listen to the contrast between the two parts in Prey’s performance; he is almost two different people.

This is what makes Schubert’s lieder so great.
