Good to know that others don't care for Schwarzkopf's singing either. I find most of it painful. Particularly her Four Last Songs (which is beautifully conducted by George Szell); yes, I know that this is sacrilege but listen to Jessye Norman, Barbara Hendricks or even Lisa Della Casa and then tell me how "beautiful" her singing was.. I can't help but wonder what kind of career she would have had if she hadn't been married to Walter Legge.
