I guess that rules me out. (grin) I think, though, it is a cycle only
for an exceptionally convincing female voice, however good. Try a few
tenor versions, too, as Schubert was a tenor and wrote it for the voice.
Schreier, definitely - Pregardien too if you can handle the fortepiano.
Somewhere have a very good recording where Pregardien also talks through
how he feels the cycle develops. However auf Deutsch only. Goerne,
Hotter and Fischer-Dieskau (Demus or Moore) will never let you down.
