Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau (baritone),Wolfgang Sawallisch (piano) & Gerald Moore (piano) The great German baritone made these recordings – with Wolfgang Sawallisch at the piano in the Mendelssohn, Gerald Moore in the Loewe – in Berlin in 1970 and 1967 respectively.
This is the first time the LP of Loewe’s Ballads has appeared in its entirety on CD. As Richard Wigmore notes in his characteristically scholarly and elegant booklet essay, ‘Fischer-Dieskau’s narrative flair, mastery of word-painting and gift for fixing a scene in the mind’s ear made him a natural for the ballads of Carl Loewe, a composer once well described as a 19th-century incarnation of a medieval strolling minstrel’. | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

Primadonna / Ariadne Jessye Norman, Komponist Julia Varady, Zerbinetta Edita Gruberova, Tenor / Bacchus Paul Frey, Musiklehrer Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau & Haushofmeister Rudolf Asmus Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, Kurt Masur 2 CDs with complete libretto at mid price for first time! "... where the recording scores most convincingly ... is in the casting of Ariadne and Bacchus. Jessye Norman brings to the title-role opulence of tone, nobility of phrasing and Straussian richness ... and Norman gives us the classical dignity and tragedy of the role in generous measure ... Paul Frey ... really sings the role, riding the climaxes effortlessly and tunefully and, with Norman, making the final duet the ecstatic experience Strauss had in mind but which so rarely materialises ... the playing of the instrumentalists from the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra is exemplary ... there's no doubt in my mind that this is an Ariadne with outstanding virtues.” Gramophone November 1988 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
