Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Robert Brooks, excellent singer but too little known.......2001-10-29

I was pleasantly surprised by this first cd sung by Robert Brooks. The songs by Anton Gatscha are less known but very interesting. Each time you listen to them, the dramatic effect gets stronger. In Brahms and Schumann the listener is on more familiar ground and can really enjoy Brooks's beautiful voice and good mastering of musical expression. The best for me however is the Schubert part: I have compared his "Silvia" or "Dioskuren" to other the interpretations of other singers, and for me his way of singing compares very favourably. Especially I am impressed by the quality of the voice and the very great attention to each detail and the "musical line", nearly perfect in the Schubert Lieder.
