Wagner: Der Ring Des Nibelungen Wagner: Der Ring des Nibelungen Ahhh, I have already been looking forward to this... Up until the present the actual Boulez/Chereau Bayreuth Wedding ring involving '76 was simply situated on Dvd and blu-ray; to savor Boulez' amazing way of Wagner conducting, you to sit through Chereau's hopelessly misconceived setting up from the Diamond ring around Next Country garb. Contrary to Chereau's statements, Wagner was NOT writing her time period -- shortly fater he began out allegorizing a era of 1848, but his very own diminished religious beliefs inside groundbreaking governmental policies is actually replicated inside remorseful luck of your mortals who is bust with all the Gods your dog to start with wished to ennoble; Brunnhilde aside, Human beings is catagorized, everyone seems to be dangerous.A real report suggests pertaining to mythological archetypes, and also correctly, that must be Wagner employed. Wotan in a very a . m . fur helped me imagine I had been observing a poor East Languages like german manufacture of "Ah, Wild.Inch (Nevertheless admittedly it really is much better than your Kupfer/Barenboim "Blade Runner/Laserium/Chernobl" horror of your several years afterwards)At any rate, more than enough just abou the actual DVD -- suffice to say any time this has been broadcast with PBS, I actually draped a new bath towel about my TV screen anywhere you want in Valkyrie. Exactly what around the music? If it really is been recently well-remastered (The LP's were being poor), Boulez favors group tempos, crystaline care about detail, profound structurel correspondences (Boulez is actually fond of looking at Wagner in order to his acolyte Proust -- the auditor's/reader's memory space of your styles is essential in order to either musicians system)and a highlighting on the forward-looking areas of Wagner, the weather that could indicat Pelleas avec Melisande and the Subsequent Viennese School. Despite acquired view, I do think a vocal skills is great, specifically Gwyneth Jones' emotional Brunnhilde as well as Jeanine Altemeyer's beautiful Sieglinde. A gold chronilogical age of Wagner vocal skills has been right now beyond, along with future pieces simply by Janowski as well as Barenboim aren' better vocally than this blog.And equally modern saving technological know-how as well as the Bayreuth audio tend to be kind to the telltale mild voice overs. In brief, that is worthy of acquiring for your fully contemporary handle the actual doing: some might find it the kind on the conclude series, other people, like me, one more Band to wear if you want to see clearness,deftness, modernity. (We unique plus like similarly a '52 Krauss, your RAI Futwangler, this '56 Knappertsbusch, the actual Solti, Karajan, Bohm, Janowski along with Barenboim sets -- I would not spend the any kind of 'em, and also the Boulez looks pleasant through to that will irritated ledge!) Boulez sans Chereau Therapist Two A shorter minute assessment is needed, considering that our primary scaled like a Video along with my personal outdated LP's -- I've got given that acquired and read a CD edition with the Boulez 1980 Bayreuth Engagement ring, i would like to add that the actual remastered good is actually Impressive; the Bayreuth traditional acoustic, Boulez's amazing focus to color along with details, the particular orchestra's virtuosity (not any fluffed records, unusual entrance doors, etcetera)all create essentially the most powerful displays regarding Arena executing previously. The many fleetness along with episode with Bohm, without worrying about crass lack of nuance, each of the focus on depth connected with Karajan minus the somnolent stasis...if only Boulez received undertaken this kind of within the overdue '60's, when they appeared to be doing Parsifal for the celebration, as well as would've received the advantages of a much better thrown...sigh. In any case, it's not always the first preference Diamond ring, but for lovers, I feel this kind of bests the actual way-over-rated, over-priced along with under-conducted Keilberth radio stations format in Testament... All right, so that we contain the Furtwangler, Krauss, Solti, Bohm, Karajan, Goodall, Boulez, Janowski, Levine, Haitink, Sawallisch, in addition to Barenboim Jewelry available on the market (Irrrve never paid attention to other Arena files nevertheless, sad to say). And all of these abandon my family to 1 realization: the variety of dissimilarities direct my family to imagine that of these ring packages have their own authenticities as well as challenges. And also take a look at possess Pierre Boulez executing the actual Bayreuth Celebration Orchestra. This particular Diamond ring development is distinct because doing so would be a sweeping switch. Norse setting or simply a Sci-Fi variety, this place had been set in a new professional age group. The idea started to be debatable when it was published, yet it's currently described as traditional. Boulez is just not my personal favorite Wagner conductor, however the following performing a marvelous employment. To fit the actual Diamond ring Period from the business age group, Boulez makes an exceedingly Schoenbergian, Bartokian environment. A great deal of their tempi are very fast, incredibly Bohm-like, however they may be however not as fast seeing that Bohm. Boulez turns the following orchestra straight into a nearly holding chamber orchestra (including Karajan's). Although it won't load up precisely the same blows when Bohm's Bayreuth, nonetheless offers a beautiful overall performance. Orchestral conversation among figures (Former mate. Siegfried's elements combined in using Rhinemaidens' styles) lasts superior to Berlin Philharmonic's, nevertheless is definitely killed when compared to Language Country's Opera's. Rhine preliminary elements are shown extra wit, while the Monster designs are generally dealt with much less eeriness. Live yourselves. This artists with this Arena are generally farily unsatisfractory. In case you view Donald McIntyre about the Centennial Wedding ring development, then you can certainly say to this he or she is a superb "industrial" Wotan. When you only notice them on Dvd, then you'll definitely be let down. His enunciation can be poor, his / her inner thoughts have, and the words appears to be robot. It's a dismal malfunction. But how might anybody stop stunned at the Brunnhilde of Gwyneth Henderson? You can pretty much really feel your ex exhilaration in the course of Siegfried Respond 3, in addition to her dread throughout Walkure Work A few. The girl's the most fragile point may perhaps be during the girl's "Immolation Scene" (a touch too burdened). Peter Hoffman along with Jeanine Altmeyer are excellent as Siegmund and also Sieglinde. Plus they're better yet for Digital video disc. This gallantry in addition to purity in both tasks are considered genuine; your health benefits of each and every figure get rights. It really is frustrating. But what about their child? Certainly your dog will not put pity inherited name, right? Drastically wrong. Is actually Manfred Jung an excellent tenor? Certainly. Will be they an excellent Heldentenor? Zero. Your dog won't have which heroic express like Windgassen and Remedios. I enjoy them better when he could be accomplishing since Mime around later on Wedding ring stage productions. What we possess here's the weakened Alberich of Hermann Becht. While he has been inside Nibelheim, this recognition just isn't there. As soon as he or she is in the Neid-Hohle do, your creepiness isn't at this time there. When he has on the Gibich property, your woes isn't at this time there. Even with DVD he could be ineffective. Heinz Zednik is just about the great Mimes upon cd, Extremely fun to listen for. There's much hilarity and eccentricity in their style, and that is certainly why their dwarf a great deal more gripping compared to Gregory Dempsey's dwarf in the Goodall placed. His effectiveness in Rheingold World Several is 100 % pure silver, although their effectiveness with Siegfried (specially "Willkommen, Siegfried!In) is actually a spectacular results. Zednik is also a okay Loge. The rest during this Centennial throw are usually combined. Ortrun Wenkel because Erda sounds adequately incomprehensible, even though Matti Salminen's Hunding is properly menacing. Fritz H�bner as Hagen is not str ong adequate; this blackness of your voice is just not there, thus they gets to be a take away. Although he / she receives a additionally intended for his performace of Fafner. Franz Mazura 's no superior Gunther; I miss out on a words regarding Johnson Stewart as well as Dennes Gunter Nocker. The Rheindaughters are generally mediore, I guess. The vassals could've included far more perform right here. Thus i won't express that this can be a most effective Band about file (my favorite at the present time may be the Janowski ring), but it is very little malfunction frequently. I'd for that orchestra and also the conductor rather than artists if I were you. Boulez Dvd movie collection: Wagner -- Som Band certains Nibelungen Versus Pierre Boulez, Bayreuth Opera (Entire Wedding ring Period, Pieces 1-4) Granted it's rather risky standing, I feel numerous attendees will likely be impressed at how good that famed 70's Diamond ring out of Boulez may seem when stripped of that visuals. Long on record as well as Disc, it's got at this moment been fantasically perfectly remastered to get Disc. Here's a thorough report on each individual installing. 'Das Rheingold.A He McIntyre Wotan ; Hermann Becht Alberich ; Martin Egel Offrir ; Matti Salminen Fasolt ; Carmen Reppel sop Freia ; Norma Well-defined sop Woglinde ; Ilse Gramatzki sop Wellgunde ; Hanna Schwarz mez Fricka ; Marga Schiml mez Flosshilde ; Ortrun Wenkel cont Erda ; Heinz Zednik ten Loge ; Helmut Pampuch 15 Mime ; Siegfried Jerusalem 15 Froh ; Fritz H�bner striper Fafner Not surprisingly, Boulez needs a spe edi look at Rheingold, which helps greatly to have this dilemma to the front.

  • ARSC Journal
    A Discography of the Choral Symphony by J. F. Weber In previous issues of this Journal (XV:2-3; XVI:l-2), an effort was made to compile parts of a composer discography in depth rather than breadth. This one started in a similar vein with the realization that SO CDs of the Beethoven Ninth Symphony had been released (the total is now over 701). This should have been no surprise, for writers have stated that the playing time of the CD was designed to accommodate this work. After eighteen months' effort, a reasonably complete discography of the work has emerged. The wonder is that it took so long to collect a body of information (especially the full names of the vocalists) that had already been published in various places at various times. The Japanese discographers had made a good start, and some of their data would have been difficult to find otherwise, but quite a few corrections and additions have been made and some recording dates have been obtained that seem to have remained 1.Dlpublished so far. The first point to notice is that six versions of the Ninth didn't appear on the expected single CD. Bl:lhm (118) and Solti (96) exceeded the 75 minutes generally assumed (until recently) to be the maximum CD playing time, but Walter (37), Kegel (126), Mehta (127), and Thomas (130) were not so burdened and have been reissued on single CDs since the first CD release. On the other hand, the rather short Leibowitz (76), Toscanini (11), and Busch (25) versions have recently been issued with fillers.

  • The Exhibition FEBRUARY 2015 Der Meister Tön' Und Weisen... Heinz Zednik – 50 Jahre Staatsoper
    Der Meister Tön’ und Weisen... Heinz Zednik – 50 Jahre Staatsoper 12.2.–21.9.2015 Lobkowitzplatz 2, 1010 Wien [email protected] T +43 1 525 24 5315 FEBRUARY 2015 The Exhibition In 2015 the music world honours the occasion of two anniversaries of the well-known and popular Austrian tenor Heinz Zednik: he celebrates both his seventy-fifth birthday and five decades as member of the ensemble of the “Haus am Ring”, the Vienna State Opera. On November 5, 1964 the young singer from the Graz Opera gave his first guest performance in Vienna, singing the role of Augustin Moser in Wagner’s Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg; on September 3, 1965 he appeared for the first time as a full member of the ensemble at the Vienna State Opera – as Count Lerma in Verdi’s Don Carlo. In order to showcase Zednik’s impressive repertory the exhibition focuses both on Zednik’s opera performances in Vienna and beyond – in Milan, Bayreuth and New York – and his work outside the field of opera, which comprises operetta, oratories, lieder and Viennese songs. Markus Vorzellner curated the exhibition; Elisabeth Truxa designed the layout. Der Meister Tön’ und Weisen...

  • Debussy's Pelléas Et Mélisande
    Debussy’s Pelléas et Mélisande - A discographical survey by Ralph Moore Pelléas et Mélisande is a strange, haunting work, typical of the Symbolist movement in that it hints at truths, desires and aspirations just out of reach, yet allied to a longing for transcendence is a tragic, self-destructive element whereby everybody suffers and comes to grief or, as in the case of the lovers, even dies - yet frequent references to fate and Arkel’s ascribing that doleful outcome to ineluctable destiny, rather than human weakness or failing, suggest that they are drawn, powerless, to destruction like moths to the flame. The central enigma of Mélisande’s origin and identity is never revealed; that riddle is reflected in the wispy, amorphous property of the music itself, just as the text, adapted from Maeterlinck’s play, is vague and allusive, rarely open or direct in its expression of the characters’ velleities. The opera was highly innovative and controversial, a gateway to a new style of modern music which discarded and re-invented operatic conventions in a manner which is still arresting and, for some, still unapproachable. It is a work full of light and shade, sunlit clearings in gloomy forest, foetid dungeons and sea-breezes skimming the battlements, sparkling fountains, sunsets and brooding storms - all vividly depicted in the score. Any francophone Francophile will delight in the nuances of the parlando text. There is no ensemble or choral element beyond the brief sailors’ “Hoé! Hisse hoé!” offstage and only once do voices briefly intertwine, at the climax of the lovers' final duet.

  • About the Exhibition Tenorissimo! Plácido Domingo in Vienna
    Tenorissimo! Plácido Domingo in Vienna May 17th, 2017 - January 8th, 2018 Lobkowitzplatz 2, 1010 Wien [email protected] T +43 1 525 24 5315 About the exhibition An unmistakable dark timbre, highly dramatic expressiveness, an impressive, vast repertoire – all this enraptures the fans of the Spanish crowd-pleaser with waves of enthusiasm. The Theatermuseum celebrates Plácido Domingo on the anniversary of his stage debut: He has been singing at the Vienna State Opera for 50 years. When the Tenor, then still considered as insider tip, made his debut at the State Opera in the title role of Verdi‘s Don Carlo, not only he took stage and cast in storm, but also the hearts of the Viennese audience – a true love relationship, unbroken till today. This performance contributed to an unparalleled career, taking him to the world‘s leading opera houses. Vienna has always been a very special “home port“ for the opera star. Here he performed 30 different roles in 300 shows and was awarded the title Austrian Kammersänger. The exhibition at the Theatermuseum documents the most important appearances of the “Tenorissimo“ in Vienna with original costumes and props, photographs and memorabilia, video and audio samples. The presentation portrays him also as baritone, the role fach on which he concentrated almost exclusively in the past 10 years, and refers to his activities as conductor, taking him regularly to the orchestra pit of the Vienna State Opera since the end of the 1970s. Without hesitation Plácido Domingo can be described as one of the most versatile, curious and longest serving representative of his musical genre.

  • 07 – Spinning the Record
    VI. THE STEREO ERA In 1954, a timid and uncertain record industry took the plunge to begin investing heav- ily in stereophonic sound. They were not timid and uncertain because they didn’t know if their system would work – as we have seen, they had already been experimenting with and working the kinks out of stereo sound since 1932 – but because they still weren’t sure how to make a home entertainment system that could play a stereo record. Nevertheless, they all had their various equipment in place, and so that year they began tentatively to make recordings using the new medium. RCA started, gingerly, with “alternate” stereo tapes of monophonic recording sessions. Unfortunately, since they were still uncertain how the results would sound on home audio, they often didn’t mark and/or didn’t file the alternate stereo takes properly. As a result, the stereo versions of Charles Munch’s first stereo recordings – Berlioz’ “Roméo et Juliette” and “Symphonie Fanastique” – disappeared while others, such as Fritz Reiner’s first stereo re- cordings (Strauss’ “Also Sprach Zarathustra” and the Brahms Piano Concerto No. 1 with Ar- thur Rubinstein) disappeared for 20 years. Oddly enough, their prize possession, Toscanini, was not recorded in stereo until his very last NBC Symphony performance, at which he suf- fered a mental lapse while conducting. None of the performances captured on that date were even worth preserving, let alone issuing, and so posterity lost an opportunity to hear his last half-season with NBC in the excellent sound his artistry deserved. Columbia was even less willing to pursue stereo.

  • Audiovisual Recording As Registers of Opera Productions1
    Comunicação e Sociedade, vol. 31, 2017, pp. 39 – 56 doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.17231/comsoc.31(2017).2603 The world in a bottle and the archeology of staging: audiovisual recording as registers of opera productions1 Mateus Yuri Passos Abstract This work focuses on the use of the audiovisual opera recording as a document to analyze contemporary stagings labeled by the German critics as director’s theater [Regietheater]. In direc- tor’s theater, Wagner’s total artwork project [Gesamtkunstwerk] achieves a turn in meaning, for the three artistic dimensions of opera – word, music and staging – become different texts. In this paper, we discuss the limitations of audiovisual recording as a register of director’s theater opera stagings, as well as filmic resources that allow for a reconstruction of the audiovisual text of such productions with solutions that are often quite distinct from those adopted on the stage. We are in- terested above all in problematizing the equivalence that is sometimes established between a stag- ing and its recording – especially in the contemporary context of productions that frequently suffer considerable changes and are characterized by the unique aspect of each performance, always full of singular events and relatively autonomous regarding the general plan of the director. Thus, we will discuss problems and solutions of video direction of audiovisual recordings of stagings of the operatic cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen [The Ring of Nibelungo], by Richard Wagner (1813-1883). Keywords Opera recording; director’s theater; opera staging; Regietheater; Richard Wagner Resumo Este trabalho se debruça sobre o uso de gravações audiovisuais como documentos para análise de producções de ópera contemporâneas agrupadas pela crítica alemã sob o termo tea- tro de director [Regietheater].
