There is a mystery around classical trained voices that are so highly individual that one can identify the artists out of a chorus of hundreds. The timbre of these voices are just like a"Trade mark". The voice of Wilhelm Strienz certainly was such a marvel. And even more. His profound and sonor Bass voice was equally succesful in opera and in popular songs. As an artist he possessed the skill and intelligence to handle each piece of music respectfully in a way that even simple songs would sound like great art. This album focuses on the popular side of Wilhelm Strienz - an album with the classical recordings of him is in preparation. Give it a listen and enjoy!
