First U.S. Edition

"Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau's preeminence in the world of music has remained unchallenged for over thirty years. The most recorded vocal artist of all time and the foremost interpreter of lieder of our day, he has mastered a remarkably wide range of operatic roles and has a repertoire encompassing music from Renaissance to contemporary composers. . . . In these richly rewarding memoirs, Fischer-Dieskau shares his penetrating insights into music, his painstaking preparations for the roles he has made his own, his acute assessments of his famous contemporaries, and how he has dealt with stunning public triumph and overwhelming personal tragedy.  He has imbued this book with all the qualities that illuminate his performances and makes him one of the best-loved and most highly respected musicians of all time".
