a
Henschel’s voice is as velvet smooth as a pint of Guinness (…) It is not always the case in these songs that the male voice is so beautiful in tone. (…) Henschel is as imaginative and dramatic as anyone could wish for but he marries that with lashings of chocolatey tone to boot.
David mcDade, Music Web International
Baritone Dietrich Henschel is a towering figure, physically, intellectually, musically and theatrically. His prowess as an interpreter, by which I mean precisely his ability to get below the surface of a song and right into its soul, is extraordinary.
Herald Scotland
Henschel capitalized on his charismatic stage presence and his effortless technique enabled him to fully exploit the playful nature of the music, which the audience ate up.
Bachtrack
At the peak of his career, this vastly experienced (in both opera and Lieder) German baritone encompasses the reflective songs with as much aplomb as he brings to the dramatic pieces.
Grammophone Magazine
quite simply, the world's greatest living lieder singer... One of the greatest things I've ever heard in my life.
Tim Ashley, The Guardian, 15 August 2003 (on Dietrich Henschelʼs performance with Irwin Gage of Schubertʼs Schwanengesang and other lieder, Edinburgh Festival)
