  • 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.

  • Mvdlugt Documentatie
    MARIJKE VAN DER LUGT (ROTTERDAM 1919 – DEN HAAG 1989) LEVEN EN LOOPBAAN AAD VAN DER TANG Höre ich nur diese Weise, Die so wundervoll und Leise, Wonne klagend, alles sagend, Mild versöhnend aus ihm tönend, in mich dringet, auf mich schwinget, hold erhallend um mich klinget? (uit: Isolde’s Liebestod) Maart 2008 INLEIDING Marijke van der Lugt kan worden beschouwd als een van de grootste na-oorlogse operazangeressen die Nederland heeft voortgebracht. In de toch al zo rijke zangcultuur van ons land heeft het aan vooraanstaande zangeressen nooit ontbroken en menigeen heeft naam gemaakt bij de wisselende Nederlandse operagezelschappen aan het eind van de negentiende en de eerste decennia van de twintigste eeuw, de Wagnervereeniging en in het buitenland. Namen als Aaltje Noorderwier-Reddingius en Cato Engelen-Sewing, om ons tot sopranen te beperken, hebben bij operaliefhebbers nog steeds een bekende klank en de stemmen van latere sopranen als Greet Koeman, Erna Spoorenberg, Gré van Swol-Brouwenstijn en Antoinette Tiemessen heeft menigeen nog op het operatoneel kunnen bewonderen. Sopranen die zich op grond van hun bijzondere stemeigenschappen bekwaamden in het dramatische of zelfs hoogdramatische vak zijn uiterst zeldzaam gebleven. Na Liesbeth Poolman-Meissner en Elisabeth Ohms, die een grote naam verwierven in voornamelijk het hoogdramatisch Wagner- en aanverwant repertoire in de eerste helft van de twintigste eeuw, is het alleen Marijke van der Lugt geweest die in dit specialistische domein werkzaam is geweest en lauweren heeft geoogst. Merkwaardig echter is het feit dat haar naam bij niet-ingewijden geen of weinig herkenning oproept, zoals gaandeweg dit onderzoek is gebleken, terwijl haar carrière toch goed te volgen is geweest in de kranten en via de vele radio-uitzendingen waaraan zij heeft meegewerkt.

  • De Muzikale Geschiedenis Van De Bayreuther Festspiele Afl. 15 (1945-1951) Door Johan Maarsingh
    De muzikale geschiedenis van de Bayreuther Festspiele afl. 15 (1945-1951) door Johan Maarsingh Als het aan de Amerikanen had gelegen zouden de Festspiele zo spoedig mogelijk haar wereldomvattende culturele taak hebben moeten hervatten. Anno juni 1945 en zeker in de toekomst zou mede daardoor de vertrouwensband tussen Duitsland en de overige landen in de wereld kunnen worden hersteld, zodat Duitsland op termijn weer als land en volk zou worden erkend. Het plan werd niet uitgevoerd, alleen al omdat er zoveel woonruimte was vernietigd en er geen sprake van kon zijn dat medewerkers aan de Festspiele onderdak zouden hebben. En dit gold nog veel meer voor de verwachte bezoekers van het festival. Dit was de belangrijkste oorzaak dat een herstart niet in 1950 kon plaatsvinden, het werd daarom een jaar uitgesteld. In de tussenliggende periode werd Wagners Festspielhaus gebruikt als een gewoon theater. Het werd zelfs in de wintermaanden gebruikt en niet alleen voor het opvoeren van opera’s. Er moest daartoe wel een hete lucht verwarmingsinstallatie in het theater worden gebouwd. Er waren revue-voorstellingen, optredens van Amerikaanse showbands, zelfs voor godsdienstige bijeenkomsten was er plaats in het Festspielhaus. Daartoe werd de orkestbak van een zodanige overkapping voorzien dat er een stevige toneelvloer ontstond. De grote ruimte van het oorspronkelijke toneel werd niet benut. Om toch plaats te bieden aan een orkest werden de eerste rijen stoelen, die voor het publiek waren bestemd, weggehaald. Aanvankelijk bestond dat publiek alleen uit Amerikanen, die in en rondom Bayreuth waren gelegerd. Alles werd georganiseerd door een ‘Special Service’ van het Amerikaanse leger.

  • De Muzikale Geschiedenis Van De Bayreuther Festspiele Afl. 17 (1954-55) Door Johan Maarsingh
    De muzikale geschiedenis van de Bayreuther Festspiele afl. 17 (1954-55) door Johan Maarsingh Op 22 juli 1954 debuteerde sopraan Gré Brouwenstijn (1915-1999) bij de Bayreuther Festspiele als Elisabeth in Tannhäuser. In diezelfde voorstelling maakte een jonge Duitse bariton, als Wolfram, eveneens zijn Bayreuth-debuut: Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau (1925-2012). Zij zouden ook in de beide daaropvolgende jaren in meerdere rollen van zich laten horen. Ramon Vinay was Tannhäuser. Opvallend: beiden waren later nog voor één jaar opnieuw geëngageerd en eveneens in een productie van Tannhäuser. Fischer- Dieskau was terug in 1961. De opname is inmiddels officieel op cd verschenen. Dit was helaas niet mogelijk met de opname uit 1965. Brouwenstijn deelde in 1965 de rol van Elisabeth met Leonie Rysanek (1926-1998). De Nederlandse sopraan zong niet tijdens de voorstelling die via de radio was te beluisteren. In 1954 werd voor het eerst sinds de door Toscanini gedirigeerde voorstellingen in 1931, een Tannhäuser gegeven in Bayreuth. Wieland Wagner voerde de regie. De uit de Oekraïne afkomstige componist en dirigent Igor Markevitsj (1912-1983) was in 1954 als dirigent voorzien. Wieland Wagner wilde dirigenten naar Bayreuth Gré Brouwenstijn als Elisabeth halen die van buiten Duitsland kwamen en het liefst niet geschoold waren in de Duitse operahuizen. Een heldere, uitgedunde klank moest met Wagners muziek mogelijk zijn. Markevitsj maakte in 1953 met de Berliner Philharmoniker opnamen voor Deutsche Grammophon Gesellschaft en was dus bekend genoeg en mogelijk in staat om in Bayreuth zijn stempel te zetten op de uitvoeringsstijl van Wagners opera’s. Helaas bleek hij niet optimaal om te kunnen gaan met de akoestiek in het Festspielhaus en daarom werden de geplande uitvoeringen van Tannhäuser verdeeld onder twee dirigenten, die al in Bayreuth hadden opgetreden en in 1954 ook andere opera’s zouden leiden: Eugen Jochum en Joseph Keilberth.

  • Wagner's Die Meistersinger
    Wagner’s Die Meistersinger: A partial discographical survey by Ralph Moore There are around ninety recordings of Die Meistersinger, of which only seven were studio-made and the last of those was recorded nearly twenty years ago; a handful are composite recordings from radio broadcasts or live performances but the majority are simply live recordings of one performance, with all the hazards, extraneous noises and potential for errors that the presentation of such a long and complex work entails. I review here some 24 recordings in all, including all seven studio versions, some live or radio broadcast performances, a couple of early recordings of excerpts and Böhm’s 1939 recording of Act 3, for reason of its exceptional quality. Two are in English: the 1923 pioneering effort and Goodall’s Sadler’s Wells performance in 1968. Some understandably esteem this opera above all Wagner’s other works, even the Ring. Certainly my experience in recent years of having seen two excellent productions, one at Glyndebourne and the other at the ENO confirms the validity of that assessment; not only is it musically deeply satisfying but it provides an absorbing dramatic spectacle and Beckmesser’s antics can even be genuinely funny – not a quality we necessarily associate with Wagner. The riot scene concluding Act 2, the cacophonous confusion melting away to leave the sole figure of the Nightwatchman intoning the hour, is one of the most thrilling in all opera; it must surely have influenced or even inspired Strauss in his use of three Nightwatchmen to provide a consoling conclusion to the end of Act 1 of his own Act 2 to Die Frau ohne Schatten.

  • A Partial Discographical Conspectus by Ralph Moore Tristan Und Isolde Represents Both the Highpoint of Roman
    Tristan und Isolde: A Partial Discographical Conspectus by Ralph Moore Tristan und Isolde represents both the highpoint of Romantic opera and the gateway to a new world of harmonic invention, epitomised by the famous “Tristan chord”. Despite its length and nearly insurmountable vocal challenges for its principal singers, it has established and maintained a central place in the operatic repertoire worldwide. For some, its popularity and appeal are inexplicable; they are likely to share Rossini’s verdict that “M. Wagner a de beaux moments, mais de mauvais quart d’heures” or, even worse, agree that, like Parsifal, Tristan "is the kind of opera that starts at six o'clock and after it has been going three hours, you look at your watch and it says 6:20.” I for one am not such a purist that I become very exercised if a few judicious cuts are made in this work, but at the same time I do not find that it drags, as long as the artists performing it can rise to its demands and sustain the requisite intensity. If I follow the work with a libretto I am apt to think that not a note is wasted; the intensity of Wagner’s vision is all-consuming if the listener can sustain concentration and be swept along by those glorious, through-composed melodies. I know of few more searingly dramatic moments in opera than “Er sah mir in die Augen” or “Rette dich, Tristan!”; this is grown-up music, devoid of stock gestures and tired platitudes, which instead explores the complexities of adult sexuality and relationships in the most extraordinarily subtle and profound manner, both musically and psychologically.

Keith Anderson Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg Otto Edelmann • Elisabeth Schwarzkopf • Hans Hopf • Erich Kunz Bayreuth Festival Chorus and Orchestra • Herbert von Karajan Recorded in 1951 Producer’s Note This classic recording of Die Meistersinger was made during a rehearsal and five performances given at the Bayreuth Festspielhaus in July and August of 1951. It was originally taken down on magnetic tape, and was first issued both on LP (from which the present transfer derives) and on 68 sides in the largest set of 78 rpm discs ever devoted to a single work. The original Columbia/EMI recording is problematic in several respects. The splices joining portions taken from different performances are sometimes glaringly obvious; there are occasional dropouts and frequent volume level fluctuations; the voices are caught rather closely, and tend toward harshness in louder passages; and save for the big ensemble pieces (such as the start of the festival scene in Act 3), there is little sense of the unique acoustical qualities of the Festspielhaus which Decca’s engineers caught so well in Knappertsbusch’s contemporaneous recording of Parsifal (Naxos Historical 8.110221-24).

  • A Complete Kirsten Flagstad Discography, Would Take Many Years to Carry Throughl
    A complete Kirsten Flagstad discography, would take many years to carry throughl. If we include an unknown amount of pirate copies and till now unknown broadcast recording, we would come close to 1000 recordings of Kirsten Flagstad’s singing, made during a period of 46 years (1913-1959). Several Flagstad discographies have been written, but none of them can be regarded as complete. The most detailed of them all is undoubtedly Howard G. Sanner, edited 1980. Still, when we now have been allowed to write down this so far unknown Arne Dørumsgaard discography, it is our hope that you will get at least an idea of Kirsten Flagstad’s enormouus production. The lists also include some real curiosities. f1 FLAGSTAD MEMORIAL ALBUM, VOLUME II HARVEST H- 1004 side 1 1) Aagots Fjeldsang..........................................................

  • 110221-24Bk Parsifal
    Mark Obert-Thorn ADD Mark Obert-Thorn is one of the world’s most respected transfer artist/engineers. He has worked for a number of specialist labels, including Pearl, Biddulph, Romophone and Music & Arts. Three of his transfers have been Great Opera Recordings 8.110221-24 nominated for Gramophone Awards. A pianist by training, his passions are music, history and working on projects. He has found a way to combine all three in the transfer of historical recordings. Obert-Thorn describes himself as a ‘moderate interventionist’ rather than a ‘purist’ or ‘re-processor,’ unlike 4 CDs those who apply significant additions and make major changes to the acoustical qualities of old recordings. His philosophy is that a good transfer should not call attention to itself, but rather allow the performances to be heard with WAGNER the greatest clarity. There is no over-reverberant ‘cathedral sound’ in an Obert-Thorn restoration, nor is there the tinny bass and Parsifal piercing mid-range of many ‘authorised’ commercial issues. He works with the cleanest available 78s, and consistently achieves better results than restoration engineers working with the metal parts from the archives of the Windgassen • Mödl • Weber • London • Van Mill • Uhde modern corporate owners of the original recordings.
