Hans Schmidt-Isserstedt (conductor): Orchestral Anthology Vol 1 (Forgotten Records)
Schmidt-Isserstedt on light duties, pre-war, in an overture sequence [JW]
Thomas Quasthoff (bass- baritone) Evening Star (Deutsche Grammophon)
A cunningly devised programme ideally showcasing Quasthoff’s vocal versatility and dramatic gifts [RMo]
