    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.

  • Julia Hamari Geb
    Julia Hamari geb. am 21. November 1942 in Budapest Erste Begegnung mit Karl Richter 1966 Eigentlich ist für mich ein Wunder geschehen, und so versuche ich jetzt, Richter im Geist anzu- schauen und zu ihm zu sprechen. Es war für mich ein phantastisches Erlebnis. In Budapest habe ich 1965 den großen Franz-Liszt- Wettbewerb gewonnen, dabei war ich die jüngste Teilnehmerin. Nach diesem Wettbewerb wurde eine Schallplatte gemacht, die wahrscheinlich herumgeschickt wurde, und so ist diese Schallplatte auch in Wien angekommen. Es war gerade Festspielzeit. Und wenn ich mich gut erinnere, hatte Christa Ludwig abgesagt, und man hat mich gefragt. Als kleine, 22jährige, klein eben, noch Schü- lerin, und von der Hochschule nur weg durch diesen Wettbewerb. Unglaublich aufgeputzt kam ich damals aus Ungarn an. Wir waren arm, es war eigentlich eine dunkle Zeit, aber nicht für mich. Für mich schien die Sonne durch die Musik und dadurch, dass ich dachte, man liebt mich und hilft mir. Im Musikverein in Wien wurde ich dann Richter vorgestellt. Er kam in den Raum und ich stand da, absolut unbekannt, wirklich ein kleines Mädchen, nichts anderes. Und er stand vor mir und guckte mich so an mit seinen irre großen, richtigen - ich sage immer, also positiv, wirklich mit Liebe gemeint - Fischaugen. Ich versuchte, diese Fischaugen anzustarren, und ich wurde gelähmt. Minu- tenlang gelähmt. Ich guckte diese zwei Augen an und ich dachte, ich kann keinen Ton singen. Und dann sagte er in seinem goldigen sächsischen Dialekt - ich versuche noch heute, es für meine Schüler nachzumachen -: „Na, kommen Sie, singen wir ein bisschen.“ Und dann hat er mich in ein großes Zimmer geführt und hat sofort die Erbarme- dich-Arie aus der Matthäus-Passion angefan- gen.

    MIHAI DE BRANCOVAN LES CONCERTS Régine Crespin chante Wagner. — Récitals de Gundula Janowitz et d'Elisabeth Schwarzkopf. J'ai naturellement tendance à me méfier de ce que l'on appelle, à Paris, le « concert Wagner », vocable alléchant sous lequel se cache, le plus souvent, une sorte de fourre-tout où l'on retrouve, pêle-mêle, les fragments symphoniques les plus célèbres, voire les plus rabâchés, des œuvres du maître de Bayreuth, véritable pot-pourri périodiquement offert en pâture au public du dimanche après-midi, lequel ne rêve que d'achever sa diges• tion bercé par les Murmures de la forêt ou bouleversé par les émotions plus fortes de la Marche funèbre. Cela dit, rassurez-vous, car c'est d'un « concert Wagner » d'un tout autre genre que je vais vous entretenir : loin d'être fait de bric et de broc, son programme ne comprenait que des pages totalement indépendantes de leur contexte ou pouvant en être isolées sans dommage, l'une d'entre elles étant toute la seconde moitié du premier acte de la Walküre, donc bien plus qu'un simple extrait. Et puis, il y avait la présence de deux solistes dont Régine Crespin, que l'on n'entend plus que trop rarement à Paris ces temps-ci. N'allez pas croire pour autant que ce concert ait été d'un bout à l'autre un modèle de perfection ; tant s'en faut. La première partie a même été franchement décevante : l'Orchestre philharmonique des pays de la Loire dirigé par Pierre Dervaux nous a donné, pour commencer, une exécution bruyante de l'ouverture du Fliegende Holländer : défavorisées par la modestie de leur nombre, les cordes étaient presque inaudibles, tandis que les cuivres, enivrés de leur puissance, s'en donnaient à cœur joie, allant même jusqu'à faire entendre plusieurs « couacs ».

  • Harold Tichenor 4/3-2016 Dear Fellow Reel to Reel Audiophie
    Harold Tichenor 4/3-2016 Dear fellow reel to reel audiophie: I do hope this email gets through to you as I want to let my past reel to reel customers know the new arrangements for acquiring 15 IPS copies of my tape masters. For the last few years I made them principally available through eBay where Deborah Gunn, better known as Reel-Lady, acted as my agent. Both Deb and I were happy with that arrangement and I can’t thank her enough for her valiant efforts to handle all sales professionally and promptly. However, over the past two years changes at eBay have led to prohibitively high listing and closing costs, even to the point that they take a commission on the shipping costs. During the past year there has also been a flood of lower quality tapes coming onto eBay, many made from cd originals or other dubious sources. It just became impossible to produce our high quality tapes at the net return after eBay and Paypal fees were deducted. Deb and I have talked about it quite a lot and looked at alternative ways to make the tapes available. In the end, Deb decided to retire from the master tape sales business. After giving thought to using eBay myself, setting up a website store or engaging another web sales agent, I decided that I would contact you all directly and test the waters on direct sales to my past customers. Thus this email to you directy from me. FIRST: let me say if you would rather not receive these direct emails in future please let me know immediately and I will remove you from the mailing list.

    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.

  • A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company
    A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company Sally Elizabeth Drew A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Arts and Humanities Department of Music This work was supported by the Arts & Humanities Research Council September 2018 1 2 Abstract This thesis examines the working culture of the Decca Record Company, and how group interaction and individual agency have made an impact on the production of music recordings. Founded in London in 1929, Decca built a global reputation as a pioneer of sound recording with access to the world’s leading musicians. With its roots in manufacturing and experimental wartime engineering, the company developed a peerless classical music catalogue that showcased technological innovation alongside artistic accomplishment. This investigation focuses specifically on the contribution of the recording producer at Decca in creating this legacy, as can be illustrated by the career of Christopher Raeburn, the company’s most prolific producer and specialist in opera and vocal repertoire. It is the first study to examine Raeburn’s archive, and is supported with unpublished memoirs, private papers and recorded interviews with colleagues, collaborators and artists. Using these sources, the thesis considers the history and functions of the staff producer within Decca’s wider operational structure in parallel with the personal aspirations of the individual in exerting control, choice and authority on the process and product of recording. Having been recruited to Decca by John Culshaw in 1957, Raeburn’s fifty-year career spanned seminal moments of the company’s artistic and commercial lifecycle: from assisting in exploiting the dramatic potential of stereo technology in Culshaw’s Ring during the 1960s to his serving as audio producer for the 1990 The Three Tenors Concert international phenomenon.
