"Les Indispensables de Diapason ~ Diapason's Selection of the Best" is a series in which Diapason, a world-renowned French magazine specializing in classical music, selects historically great performances of masterpieces that shine in music history, remasters them, and reissues them. The 171st volume of the series features Brahms' German Requiem conducted by Otto Klemperer! The soloists are soprano Elisabeth Schwarzkopf and baritone Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, both of whom are arguably the greatest singers of the 20th century. This performance, which is highly regarded among Klemperer's vocal works, is majestic and truly worthy of being called a requiem, and the two soloists perform to the best of their ability. Although it was recorded in 1961, it can be said to be one of the most timeless and memorable performances.
