Barbara Schlick

Jane Newble wrote (December 13, 2002):
One of my favourites is a live recording (1998) I bought when I was in Leipzig. It is Georg Christopher Biller with the Thomanerchor Leipzig and the Leipzig Gewandhausorchester. Soloists are Barbara Schlick (my only 'don't like so much' about this CD), Yvonne Naef, Christopher Pregardien, and Klaus Mertens. It is on Philips 464 130-2.

At one time I thought I might collect all the CO's available, but I have only got 5 so far, so I have some way to go!!! As for Gardiner, I only know the Bach Pilgrimage one, and thought that was very good.

Robert Sherman wrote (December 13, 2002):
[To Jane Newble] Jane raises an interesting question re not liking Barbara Schlick so much. Barbara Schlick's Messiah is hideous, the worst in my entire collection. But some seem to regard her well. Can anyone recommend a recording in which she is really good?

I am one of them.
