Information from 678 converted Dec. 8, 2014 (Tenor; b. 7/20/35)
New York times, 5 Jan. 2020 (Peter Max Schreier, born July 29, 1935 in Meissen, eastern Germany, died Dec. 25, [2019] in Dresden, Germany, aged 84; a German tenor renowned for his performances in Mozart operas and Bach oratorios, and for the balance of vocal elegance and dramatic urgency he brought to the German art song; Mr. Schreier's involvement with conducting, which began around 1970, was a natural extension of his approach to singing, especially his feeling for "instrumental singing" as he described it in a 1997 interview)
