Portrait Fritz Wunderlich – Life and Legend

"Fritz Wunderlich is one of those singers whom I've never felt were historical. In his recordings he sounds so much of the present, that it's as though he were still among us." These comments by Rolando Villazón make it clear that the book of Fritz Wunderlich's life is by no means closed. Forty years after his tragic death, he is a far more potent presence through his recordings than he was during his lifetime. He continues to reach his public, whether they be fans who know his recordings inside-out or people hearing his voice for the first time.
