Product description

Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of early Baroque music with Fritz Wunderlich's captivating album, "Music Before Bach." Released on January 12, 2018, under the SWRmusic label, this operatic masterpiece spans a generous 2 hours and 15 minutes, offering a rich tapestry of compositions that precede the era of Johann Sebastian Bach.

Fritz Wunderlich, renowned for his exceptional vocal prowess, guides you through a collection of pieces arranged for voice and chamber ensemble. The album features a diverse range of works, including sacred motets, lamentations, and operatic arias, showcasing the evolution of musical expression during this transformative period.

Highlights include the poignant "Lust hab ich g'habt zur Musica," the dramatic "Entlaubet ist der Walde," and the introspective "Unsäglich Schmerz," each piece performed with Wunderlich's signature artistry and emotional depth. The album also features compositions by Heinrich Schütz, Dietrich Buxtehude, and other notable composers of the time, providing a comprehensive exploration of the musical landscape before Bach's dominance.

"Music Before Bach" is not just a collection of songs but a journey through the intricate and expressive world of early Baroque music. Wunderlich's velvety tenor voice brings a sense of intimacy and passion to each piece, making this album a true gem for lovers of classical and operatic music.

About Fritz Wunderlich

Fritz Wunderlich, born Friedrich Karl Otto Wunderlich, was a German lyric tenor celebrated for his exquisite interpretations of Mozart's operas and a wide array of lieder. With a voice characterized by its beautiful tone, effortless production, and elegant phrasing, Wunderlich captivated audiences across the tenor range, delivering both tender melodies and thrilling vigor when the moment called for it. Born into a musical family in Kusel, Germany, in 1930, Wunderlich's talent blossomed under the guidance of his conductor father. His repertoire spanned the works of Strauss, Schubert, and Bach, among others, earning him a reputation as one of the finest Mozartean tenors of his time. Tragically, Wunderlich's promising career was cut short when he died in a fall down a stone staircase at the age of 35, just days before his 36th birthday. Despite his untimely death, his recordings continue to enchant opera enthusiasts worldwide, showcasing his remarkable artistry and enduring legacy.
