Decca Discography
DECCA DISCOGRAPHY >>V VIENNA, Austria, Germany, Hungary, etc. The Vienna Philharmonic was the jewel in Decca’s crown, particularly from 1956 when the engineers adopted the Sofiensaal as their favoured studio. The contract with the orchestra was secured partly by cultivating various chamber ensembles drawn from its membership. Vienna was favoured for symphonic cycles, particularly in the mid-1960s, and for German opera and operetta, including Strausses of all varieties and Solti’s “Ring” (1958-65), as well as Mackerras’s Janá ček (1976-82). Karajan recorded intermittently for Decca with the VPO from 1959-78. But apart from the New Year concerts, resumed in 2008, recording with the VPO ceased in 1998. Outside the capital there were various sessions in Salzburg from 1984-99. Germany was largely left to Decca’s partner Telefunken, though it was so overshadowed by Deutsche Grammophon and EMI Electrola that few of its products were marketed in the UK, with even those soon relegated to a cheap label. It later signed Harnoncourt and eventually became part of the competition, joining Warner Classics in 1990. Decca did venture to Bayreuth in 1951, ’53 and ’55 but wrecking tactics by Walter Legge blocked the release of several recordings for half a century. The Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra’s sessions moved from Geneva to its home town in 1963 and continued there until 1985. The exiled Philharmonia Hungarica recorded in West Germany from 1969-75. There were a few engagements with the Bavarian Radio in Munich from 1977- 82, but the first substantial contract with a German symphony orchestra did not come until 1982.

RICHARD WAGNER-VERBANDES WIEN Vormals Akademischer Wagner Verein Gegr
MITTEILUNGSBLATT DES RICHARD WAGNER-VERBANDES WIEN vormals akademischer Wagner Verein gegr. 1872 Postanschrift: c/o Prof. Dr. Heinrich Tettinek, Praterstraße 50, 1020 Wien e-mail: [email protected], internet: www.richardwagnerverband.at Anmeldungen und Auskünfte bei Frau Dkfm. Liane Bermann Telefon und Fax: 470 25 08 Montag und Mittwoch von 8 bis 13 Uhr Mai/Juni 2010 Sehr verehrte Mitglieder! Das vorliegende Heft ist dem Gedenken an Wolfgang Wagner gewidmet. Patriarch des Richard Wagner–Clans, zweiundvierzig Jahre lang Leiter des ältesten Festspielunternehmens der Welt, Regisseur von insgesamt zwölf Neuinsze- nierungen der Bayreuther Festspiele, gefragter Gastregisseur zwischen Dresden, Rom und Tokyo – kaum jemals noch hat das Wort vom „erfüllten Leben“ größere Berechtigung gehabt als hier. Wir bringen nach einem kurzen Überblick über Leben und Wirken Wolfgang Wagners zwei persönlich gefärbte Beiträge: Erinnerungen unseres Präsidenten Prof. Dr. Heinrich Tettinek und – vielleicht ein wenig überraschend – eine posthume Liebeserklärung von Christoph Schlingensief, die dem „Enfant terrible“ von Bayreuth in dieser Form nicht jedermann zugetraut hätte. Lückenlos schließt sich daran der Bericht über die Bayreuther Gedenkfeier für Wolfgang Wagner, gefolgt von der Rezen- sion über die „Götterdämmerung“ bei den Salzburger Osterfestspielen. Danach ﬁ nden Sie die gewohnten Rubriken wie Veranstaltungsrückblicke, Hinweise auf eigene und fremde Veranstaltungen, Reisen und Pendelfahrten sowie wie immer auch die arbeitsreiche Auﬂ istung

Kurt Rydl: “El Verdadero Cantante Se Forma En Escena”
VOCES Kurt Rydl: “El verdadero cantante se forma en escena” por Ingrid Haas l año pasado, durante las celebraciones de los 80 años del Palacio de Bellas Artes tuvimos la presencia en el recinto de uno de los grandes cantantes de los últimos 50 años: Eel bajo austriaco Kurt Rydl. Aunque su participación en las celebración fue corta, ya que cantó el bajo solista de la Novena Sinfonía de Beethoven, fue un honor contar con la presencia de tan prestigiado cantante y, afortunadamente, pudimos entrevistarlo en exclusiva para Pro Ópera. Conocido en el ambiente operístico como el “mega bajo”, Rydl nació en Viena y estudió canto en la Academia de Música de Viena y en el Conservatorio de Moscú. Comenzó su carrera con compromisos en las óperas de Linz y Stuttgart y desde 1976 fue miembro permanente de la compañía de la Ópera Estatal de Viena. En 1986 lo nombraron Kammersänger, título muy importante para un cantante de ópera, que sólo se otorga a intérpretes de excelsa calidad y con una brillante carrera. En 2001 recibió la Medalla de Honor de Austria en Artes y Ciencias, como reconocimiento a sus logros en el campo de la música. Su repertorio comprende unos 100 roles operísticos en idiomas tan diversos como alemán, inglés, italiano, francés, ruso y checo. En cuanto a sus piezas de concierto, abarca desde Mozart hasta Penderecki. Ha participado en festivales tan renombrados como los de Salzburgo, Bayreuth, Edimburgo, Múnich o Verona. Sus roles más famosos son Osmin en Die Entführung aus dem Serail de Mozart; Rocco en Fidelio de Beethoven; Don Basilio en Il barbiere di Siviglia de Rossini; el Baron Ochs en Der Rosenkavalier de Richard Strauss; Daland en Der fliegende Holländer, Hagen en Götterdämmerung y Gurnemanz en Parsifal de Wagner; así como Kurt Rydl: “Me enoja mucho que se le destine tanto dinero a Claggart en Billy Budd de Britten.
