Eisenlohr, Ulrich;
Roth, Detlef

"Roth has a pithy, virile baritone, capable of dramatic forte ascents, which - an essential prerequisite especially for the Lied - can be modulated in a differentiated manner even with low dynamic degrees and remains stable. Thanks to his rich creative imagination, Roth is convincing both in the mood-painting, contemplative songs (e.g. Die abgeblühte Linde, Der Flug der Zeit) as well as in the couplet-like, naïve works (Frohsinn, Lob des Tokayers, Der zufriedene) and in the compositions pulsating with dramatic passion (Heimweh, Die Allmacht, Der Unglückliche). The whole exciting heterogeneity of Schubert's Lied oeuvre, which combines strongly divergent lyricism often created by dilettante authors, but artistically enhances precisely these texts of little literary significance, is subtly sounded out in Detlef Roth's interpretations" • (Classical Music Today)
