August 2019 List August 2019 Catalogue Issue 40 Prices valid until Friday 27 September 2019 unless stated otherwise 0115 982 7500 The Wiener Staatsoper, celebrating its 150th birthday this year [email protected] Your Account Number: {MM:Account Number} {MM:Postcode} {MM:Address5} {MM:Address4} {MM:Address3} {MM:Address2} {MM:Address1} {MM:Name} 1 Welcome! Dear Customer, DG and Decca have pulled out all the operatic stops this month, with three very special releases featuring some of their best soloists. Mexican tenor Javier Camarena’s ‘Contrabandista’ recital marks the first issue in the ‘Mentored by Bartoli’ series on Decca - a partnership between Decca and the Cecilia Bartoli Music Foundation. Arias by Verdi are the focus of DG’s new recording from Russian bass, Ildar Abdrazakov, conducted by Yannick Nezet-Seguin, who also happens to take the lead in a brand new recording of Die Zauberflote, the sixth in DG’s current series of Mozart operas. It is the latter that we have been particularly taken by, so you will find it as our ‘Disc of the Month’ for August, as well as being at a very special price as part of our new DG & Decca Opera Sale (found on pp.13-18). Another recording which was a strong contender for the ‘Disc of the Month’ position, was Mahan Esfahani’s performance of Bach’s Toccatas on a rather fabulous harpsichord - Hyperion have done a sterling job in capturing Esfahani’s consummate skill in interpreting these works. Other highlights for August include the second instalment in The Illyria Consort’s recordings of sonatas by Carbonelli; hi-fi Holst and Elgar from the Bergen Philharmonic and Andrew Litton on BIS; lesser-known Beethoven from the Helsinki Baroque Orchestra, who provide us with a gripping performance of Beethoven’s complete incidental music to Egmont (Ondine); plus we have Messiaen from Tom Winpenny (Naxos), Handel from the Akademie fur Alte Musik Berlin (Pentatone), and Brahms/Dvorak from Jakub Hrusa and the Bamberger Symphoniker (Tudor), to name but a few. Boxsets to point out include Istvan Kertesz’s complete Decca recordings with the Wiener Philharmoniker, a set from Orfeo commemorating 150 years of the Wiener Staatsoper, and the compiling of Joseph Nolan’s recordings of Widor’s organ work on 8 CDs (Signum). Plenty to get excited about! As mentioned above, our new special offers start with some great discounts on opera recordings from DG and Decca, plus we have a selection of reduced-price chamber music recordings from Hyperion, discount on the complete catalogues of Capriccio and C-Avi, special prices on archive reissues from Unicorn-Kanchana and Heritage, and an offer on all DVDs and Blu-rays currently available from C Major Entertainment.

Tamino, Christiane Karg as Pamina, Regula Muhlemann as Papagena, Albina Offer available while stocks last. Shagimuratova as the Queen of the Night, and Franz-Josef Selig as Sarastro. The Magic Flute was first performed at the Theater auf der Wieden, outside the ancient city walls of Vienna, in September 1791, barely two months before Mozart’s premature death. The show ran for over 100 performances within its first season and soon became a hit throughout Europe and beyond. The opera balances earthy comedy with an exploration of the nature of individual freedom, fraternity, enlightened leadership and unconditional love, all expressed in music of simplicity and beauty. “I very much like the perspective of doing The Magic Flute now,” Nezet-Seguin reflects, “because it throws light on all the operas we’ve already recorded.” Four of the five operas recorded by DG so far have received Grammy nominations, with Le nozze di Figaro winning a prestigious Echo Klassik Award in 2017. 2 PRIORITY NEW RELEASES DG and Decca Contrabandista Verdi Arias by Garcia, Rossini, Arias and Zingarelli Abdrazakov, Orchestre Camarena, Les Musiciens du Metropolitain de Montreal, Prince, Capuano Nezet-Seguin £12.50 £12.50 Decca 483 4899 DG 483 6096 due 16/8 New CD + Blu-ray Audio Boxsets 483 7393 Beethoven Symphonies 1-9 5CD + Blu-ray Audio VPO;Bernstein £25.95 483 7394 Wagner Tristan und Isolde 3CD + Blu-ray Audio Nilsson;Windgassen;Ludwig;Talvela;Bohm £25.95 Mozart Die Zauberflote Vogt, Karg, Villazon, Selig, Shagimuratova, Muhlemann, Nazmi, Chamber Orchestra of Europe, Nezet-Seguin £15.57 483 6400 (2CD) on offer as part of our DG & Decca Opera Sale (see p.13) In 2012, DG started a series of Mozart operas conducted by Yannick Nézet- Séguin, and initiated by Rolando Villazón, in collaboration with Festspielhaus Baden-Baden and with the generous support of ROLEX. Die Zauberflöte is the sixth installment, after the very successful productions of Don Giovanni, Così fan tutte, Die Entführung aus dem Serail (Grammy Award Nomination), Le nozze di Figaro (Grammy Award Nomination & Echo Klassik Award) and La clemenza di Tito. Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung praised Villazón’s “comic talent” in his first Papageno, “achieving ‘heights of emotion’ with the captivating Regula Mühlemann’s Papagena”, as well as the “magical tenor” of Klaus Florian Vogt as Tamino, Christiane Karg’s “lyrically perfect Pamina” and the “imposing” Franz-Josef Selig’s Sarastro. Nézet-Séguin “is a genuine Mozartian ... and rolling out a red carpet for the singers”.

It was an event that not only generated great excitement in Vienna, but also attracted considerable attention beyond the borders of the Hapsburg empire. Since then the opera house has remained in the public spotlight. For 150 years it has been an internationally important institution, and the affairs of the Wiener Staatsoper are always also matters of public interest to an extent found in no other city in the world. With this anniversary CD box set, school and online projects, streaming and the inclusion of the federal provinces, the opera house on the Ring is breaking new boundaries; two exhibitions (at the opera house on the Ring and at the Theatre Museum) and a number of publications will focus on the history and current artistic events in the Vienna opera scene; and on the anniversary itself, the artists and the opera house itself will be honoured.

Heft 2020 vor. Diesmal wird es durch die verschiedenen Festivals ermöglicht, zwölf Opernrezen- Editorial sionen vorzustellen. Die meisten Kritiken verdanken wir unserem uner- müdlichen Redakteur Oliver Hohlbach. Er durchfährt mit viel Courage die deutschen und ausländischen Länder und erläutert mit Sachverstand die vorgeschriebenen Verordnungen der Regierungen, die dem Volk die Ansteckungen des Virus ersparen wollen. Den Sommerurlaub verbrachte unser Boardmitglied Dr. Martin Knust auf einem Segeltörn in Schweden. Es läßt seine Bürger trotz Virusge- fahr – trotz erheblicher Kritik vieler Länder – frei handeln. In der Nähe Stockholms gibt es eine ausgedehnte Schärenlandschaft. Dr. Knust schil- dert neben der Landschaft mit vielen eindrucksvollen Seebildern auch den schwedischen Komponisten Hugo Alfvén, der kaum jemand der Leser- schaft bekannt seine dürfte, dessen Werke aber großen Hörgenuß berei- ten. Auch in Köln gab es die Oper Die Zauberfl öte ohne Kürzungen in der bewährten Regie von Michael Hampe, dessen unvergeßlicher Zeiten als Kölner Opernintendant von zwei Jahrzehnten 1975-1995 man sich in der jetzigen Theaterinstanz entsann und ihn zu dieser Inszenierung eingela- den hat. Die reduzierten Opernbesucher quittierten seine intelligente und gekonnte Leistung mit starkem Applaus. Die Sängerschar der Premiere, die ich am 3. Oktober 2020 besuchte, ist über die Maßen zu loben. Einer davon, der französische Tenor Julien Behr, war bereit, mir ein Interview zu gewähren, das Sie auf Seite 15 lesen können. Eine der Erscheinungen, die diese Zeiten hervorgebracht haben, ist die Entdeckung der Sächsischen Landschaft in Deutschland.
