Peter Schreier died on 25 December 2019 in Dresden. As a tenor and conductor he had a unique effectiveness all over the world. This included countless encounters with personalities of international and regional musical life. The volume "Begegnungen mit Peter Schreier" bears witness to this and to his charisma. Conductors and musicians, singers, pianists, a composer and many others report in a mosaic-like manner on very different aspects of their collaboration: in concert and opera, in rehearsals and recordings as well as in their personal surroundings. Both renowned personalities and music creators of younger generations have taken up the pen in 2020. They offer an impressive reflection of Peter Schreiers, who enjoyed working with young musicians. This also creates a colourful image of Peter Schreier as a person. For decades he has been able to reach his listeners in the depths of their soul and move them inwardly. The 29 commemorative texts are joined by four speeches on the awarding of prizes to Schreier, either objectifying or personal. Three texts verbalise Schreier's view of Bach, the central composer of his life since his time in the Dresdner Kreuzchor, as well as his activities in the musical country of Austria and Japan. The volume is rounded off with speeches in the farewell service for Peter Schreier on 8 January 2020 in the Kreuzkirche in Dresden and a selection of pictures.
