This is Bernstein's third recording (of Des Knaben Wunderhorn)... and in many ways, it is his best integrated, steadiest, and most mature reading... Bernstein has always done the ''Der Schildwache Nachtlied'' superbly, and it is one of the highlights of the new recording. Similarly, the ''Lied des Verfolgten im Turm'' shows Bernstein and his latest baritone soloist, Andreas Schmidt at their sturdy best. In general, Popp complements her male rivals. In ''Wer hat dies Liedlein erdacht'' she is as charming as Fischer-Dieskau is witty.  - The Gramophone Magazine
