Review by Mark Rabne

Der Hirt Auf Dem Felsen is a stunning album that features the incredible vocal talents of Christa Ludwig, accompanied by a variety of renowned composers including Brahms, Schubert, Ravel, SaintSaëns, and Rachmaninoff. The album is a beautiful collection of songs that showcase Ludwig's versatility and range as a singer.

One of the standout tracks on the album is Schubert's "Der Hirt auf dem Felsen," which features Ludwig's rich and expressive voice accompanied by a clarinet and piano. The song's haunting melody and emotional lyrics are perfectly suited to Ludwig's style, and she delivers a captivating performance that is both moving and powerful.

Another standout track is Rachmaninoff's "Vocalise," which showcases Ludwig's ability to convey deep emotion through her voice alone. The song's haunting melody and melancholic lyrics are perfectly suited to Ludwig's style, and she delivers a stunning performance that is both haunting and beautiful.
