Rita Streich Queen Of Song is a stunning album that showcases the incredible vocal talents of the legendary soprano, Rita Streich. The album features a diverse selection of works by some of the greatest composers of all time, including Franz Schubert, Hugo Wolf, Richard Strauss, Otto Nicolai, Darius Milhaud, and Erik Werba.

Streich's voice is simply breathtaking, with a purity and clarity that is unmatched in the world of classical music. Her interpretation of each piece is masterful, capturing the subtle nuances and emotions of the music with incredible skill and sensitivity.

From the hauntingly beautiful "Ave Maria" by Schubert to the playful and exuberant "Les Joueurs de Flûte" by Milhaud, Streich's voice is a joy to listen to from start to finish.
