This is the first ever complete collection of all the recordings done by the Danish tenor Aksel Schiøtz, from 1933 to 1946. His career as a tenor ended drastically in 1946 when he barely survived a tumor operation which saved his life, but altered his voice. Until his death in 1975 he was a baritone and a much sought after professor and his master classes in the USA gave advice and help to many young singers from around the world. His precious tenor reordings, all done in a very short period of time, contains a vast selection of Danish songs and the yardstick performances of Dichterliebe and Die schöne Müllerin.
