Celia A. Sgroi from the Lieder-List has started a group devoted to discussion of Fischer-Dieskau's life, career, and recordings. Anyone who is interested is invited to join. This is not intended as a substitute for Lieder-l, which deals with art song in general. The Fischer-Dieskau group is for people who may want to discuss DFD in more detail than might be tolerated by lieder fans who are not necessarily DFD fans. (-: If you would like to subscribe to this group, go to: http://www.egroups.com/group/Fischer-DieskauList BTW, you are invited to join even if you don't consider yourself a DFD fan, and this is not intended to be a forum for uncritical adoration of Uncle FiDi. Natalie Meyer from the Lieder-List invites everyone to join the Bostridge List which has been active for just over a month now. It's pretty low-traffic, unless one of us goes on a posting spree, and we don't really fawn all that much. Discussion ranges from concert alerts to discussion of recordings/the Winterreise vid/the meaning of the poems in Die Schoene Muellerin. Instructions on how to subscribe can be found at: http://www.aquarionics.com/mailinglists.shtml - we're quite a friendly bunch and are not at all scary. Hope to see some of you on the list! Have a Schubert kind of day, Robert Peters [log in to unmask]
