“I have cherished Janet Baker’s performance of Rückert-lieder for many years (coupled with Elgar’s sea images on vinyl), but so far I have resisted the purchase of her other Mahler song cycles, believing that these are only suitable for a male singer, and I have also cherished Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau’s performances. However, after listening to these songs Wayfarer and Kindertotenlieder, some 40 years after their first issue, I now see what I was missing. We soon forget the possible absurdity of a woman singing from the point of view of a jilted lover and a grieving father respectively. Janet Baker’s art simply transcends such considerations. It is a Lieder song of the highest quality, coupled with a superb play by the orchestras of John Barbirolli. I had not heard the separate recording of Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen with the Hallé before; it is even better than that of the group of five with the Philharmonia. The recording remains excellent and so I give the highest recommendation. But listen to Fischer-Dieskau too.”
