  • 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.

    Strauss Elektra Solti SC

    Richard Strauss Elektra Elektra: Birgit Nilsson; Klytemnestra: Regina Resnik; Chrysothemis: Marie Collier; Oreste: Tom Krause; Aegistheus: Gerhard Stolze Vienna State Opera Chorus and Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra Georg Solti Recorded June, September and November 1966 at the Sofiensaal, Vienna Recording Engineers: Gordon Parry and James Brown Producers: John Culshaw and Christopher Raeburn Remastered at Air Studios London by Tony Hawkins and Ray Staff Speakers Corner 2LPs Decca SET 354/5 Performance: 5 Strauss's Elektra was premièred in 1909 and marks the highpoint of the composers operatic career. Never again would he compose such searingly dramatic, concise music, replete with startlingly vivid orchestration, and a wealth of highly chromatic (and often atonal) thematic material, centred around decidedly Wagnerian sounding leitmotifs. It is isn't easy to cast. The title role needs a true dramatic soprano who is happy above the stave, and that of Klytemnestra a big-voiced mezzo- soprano. Chrysothemis is written for a lyric soprano, and Oreste for an heroic baritone. Elektra's don't come any better than Birgit Nilsson. She was 48 when the recording was made, and even the most exposed leaps and murderously high tessitura don't bother her. As the greatest Wagnerian soprano since Frieda Leider, she can effortlessly ride the orchestra, while still using a wide dynamic range in quieter passages. There are occasions when her intonation falters in the Recognition Scene, but this is a classic, thrillingly savage performance. Regina Resnik scales the same dramatic heights as Nilsson in her confrontation with Elektra, and her laughter at the end of the scene is gloriously OTT.

    Beata Kornatowska Wspomnienia Głosem Pisane : O Autobiografiach Śpiewaków

    Beata Kornatowska Wspomnienia głosem pisane : o autobiografiach śpiewaków Acta Universitatis Lodziensis. Folia Litteraria Polonica 16, 140-154 2012 140 | FOLIA LITTERARIA POLONICA 2 (16) 2012 Beata Kornatowska Wspomnienia głosem pisane. O autobiografiach śpiewaków W literackim eseju Güntera de Bruyna poświęconym autobiografii czytamy: Opowiadający dokonuje pewnego okiełznania tego, co zamierza opowiedzieć, wtłacza to w formę, której wcześniej nie miało; decyduje o początku i zakończeniu, układa szczegóły [...] w wybranych przez siebie związkach, tak że nie są już tylko szczegółami, ale nabierają znaczenia, i określa punkty ciężkości1. Przy lekturze wspomnień znanych śpiewaków trudno oprzeć się wrażeniu, że przyszli na świat po to, żeby śpiewać. Już dobór wspomnień z dzieciństwa ma coś z myślenia magicznego: wydarzenia, sploty okoliczności, spotkania — wszystko to prowadzi do rozwoju kariery muzycznej. Dalsze powtarzalne elementy tych wspomnień to: odkrycie predyspozycji wokalnych i woli podję- cia zawodu śpiewaka, rola nauczycieli śpiewu i mentorów (najczęściej dyrygen- tów), największe sukcesy i zdobywanie kolejnych szczytów — scen kluczowych dla świata muzycznego, pamiętne wpadki, kryzysy wokalne, podszyte rywali- zacją relacje z kolegami, ciągłe podleganie ocenie publiczności, krytyków i dy- rygentów, myśli o konieczności zakończenia kariery, refleksje na temat doboru repertuaru, wykonawstwa i — generalnie — muzyki. W tle pojawiają się rów- nież wydarzenia z historii najnowszej, losy kraju i rodziny, kondycja instytucji muzycznych, uwarunkowania personalne. Te uogólnione na podstawie sporej liczby tekstów z niemieckiego kręgu ję- zykowego2 prawidłowości w organizowaniu wspomnień „głosem pisanych” chciałabym przedstawić na przykładzie wyróżniających się w mojej ocenie ja- kością autobiografii autorstwa ikon powojennej wokalistyki niemieckiej — Christy Ludwig ...und ich wäre so gern Primadonna gewesen.
