Goerne's and Brendel's Winterreise is the top pick in the Choral and
Song section of the current BBC Music Magazine.  After praising the
performance to the skies, the reviewer writes:

   "Among mezzos (and there are quite a few) who have ventured into
   Schubert's snowbound landscape, Brigitte Fassbaender (DG) gives
   probably the most astonishing, shocking performance ever recorded."

Anyone out there heard this?  Any opinions on this recording?
