Notes & Reviews:

Called by Furtwangler the "blackest bass" of his generation, Frick had no competitors capable of surpassing or even matching his powerful voice in either force or range. Frick began his career as a choral trainee in Stuttgart. He sang in the Bayreuth opera chorus in 1930, having been hired by Siegfried Wagner. His solo career was launched in 1934 and after the war he gained distinction as one of the most important German basses of the following decades thanks to Joseph Keilberth.
