2 out of 5 stars The only album I need? Not really........2004-06-14

There's something a little sad about this particular marketing scheme: The ONLY operetta album you'll ever need. it implies that everything operetta offers could be contained on one disc. It cheapens the form to think it could be distilled into 74 minutes, and it invites ridicule, because nobody could pick the tracks that would please everybody. Having said that, this compilation is pretty poor even for an exercise in futility.

First there is the matter of the composers represented. Offenbach, Strauss, Lehar, Flotow. So far, we're good. The inclusion of Robert Stolz and Carl Zeller would be alright, except that there is nothing by Gilbert and Sullivan, Victor Herbert, Jerome Kern, and a couple other giants of operetta. There is also a further insult; the bizarre inclusion of two versions of 'Dein ist mein ganzes herz', one in German, and one in English. This is, to be sure, a great operetta moment, but is operetta really so bereft of great moments as to warrant the inclusion of two versions of the same tune? Or did the compilers not realize they were one and the same? Neither answer inspires confidence. It even appears that one of the tracks, "Wien wird bei Nacht erst schoen" is not actually from an operetta, which is truly inexcusable in light of the glaring omissions of entire categories of operetta. And couldn't we get a recording with Stolz conducting his own pieces? Presumably BMG had access to such recordings, seeing as he conducts three of the other tracks on the album. And surely there are more numbers to mine from Fledermaus that rank higher than some of these maudlin numbers from Viennese oddities.

The performances are admirable, particularly Domingo's 'M'appari', which is as good as one might expect from him, and 'Das Leben Ruft', a glittering number by Lucia Popp in fine form. But the tracks by Moffo and Caballe are not terribly good; the two were clearly past their primes. Rudolf Schock sounds much better in the redundant 'Dein ist mein ganzes herz' than he does in 'Komm in die Gondel', which is pretty dismal until the very end, where he pulls out a nice closing note in head voice. Wunderlich is predictably good at this material, as is von Stade. Jerry Hadley is exceptional at the 'Wolgenlied', but sounds pretty ordinary in 'Schoen ist die welt'

I think there are some people for whom this is exactly the sort of music that represents the best of operetta. Perhaps for them the album should be titled: 'Great moments from the world of operetta', or maybe: 'The best of French and German operetta'. If that were what we were shooting for, an album of syrupy Mario Lanza and Fritz Wunderlich would actually exceed some expectations. But this album sets an impossible goal for itself, and does not meet even the bare minimum expected of an indispensable opera album. Try something else.

5 out of 5 stars A great operatic soprano scales it down for more popular tunes.......2007-05-21

The German soprano Emmy Bettendorf made her operatic debut in 1914 and in Germany (she seldom traveled abroad, mostly a tour of Holland) she was considered one of the most outstanding operatic sopranos of her time. She sang a variety of what in the Italian repertoire is called "spinto" (lyric-dramatic) and in the German repertoire "lyrisch-dramatische" roles. She made a a number of operatic recordings well-known to vocal recording collectors, including one of the best recordings ever of "Senta's Ballad" from Wagner's Der Fliegende Hollander and duets from his Lohengrin and Tannhauser with the incomparable heldentenor Lauritz Melchior. She even ventured into the heavy dramatic repertoire with the role of Brunnhilde in Wagner's Siegfried. By the mid-1920's her voice could no longer sustain such heavy fare and she undertook to sing lighter opera and operetta. It was at this time that she undertook to record much of this popular repertoire for the German Parlophon label. Lucky us.

Duttonlabs of the UK has lovingly transcribed 20 of these titles on the CD "The Lighter Side of Emmy". What we hear is a fresh voice that entirely belies its history of heavier usage. It is perfectly integrated between its registers, with beautiful, floated top notes and a sensuous mezzo-soprano timbre in her mid- and lower range; a wonderful legato and a great sense of phrasing. As well, she treats the text of each song with love and a style idiomatic to this genre of music. I have listened to it many times since I acquired it, just to capture in my mind the luscious sound of the voice.

The recording quality and the transfers are first rate. In addition to Emmy, one gets to hear in duets with Emmy a bit of another great light singer of the period, the tenor Herbert Ernst Groh (though he sings on Track 6, not Track 5 as indicated by the jacket) as well as another popular tenor of the times, Hans Clemens. Otto Dobrindt is the classy conductor on many of the tracks. The included biographical notes are excellent.

5 out of 5 stars Emmy Bettendorf doubles her presence on the Internet........2004-08-19

With this 75 minute CD, the estimable German soprano of long ago Emmy Bettendorf doubles her representation on the Internet. From her discography of about 200 items, Dr Robert Jones has here selected 20 non-operatic recordings made between the years 1925 and the early 1930s. In the Berlin of those days, her recording company Parlophon seemed always to have inexhaustible resources to pour into their cheap label productions. There were arrangers to render popular instrumental works by Tchaikovsky, Grieg, Elgar, Waldteufel and Rubinstein into song; there was not only a chorus to add but also budding tenors like Herbert Ernst Groh; and there were conductors like Otto Dobrindt to direct it all. The records had wide appeal in their day, one critic asserting that Emmy Bettendorf's singing could "make men go weak at the knees".

With motherhood looming, Emmy Bettendorf retired in 1932. It is possible to find on the Internet a letter she wrote, in faulty English, after WW2 had left her in severely reduced circumstances, in which she lists some preferred items that might be included in food parcels. Her fortunes later revived when she became lecturer in drama at the Berlin Conservatory. She died in 1963.

I hope a track listing is provided to accompany this review.

5 out of 5 stars Viennese delicacies from singers of the past........2003-10-10

Record catalogues in the 1930s contained a rich selection of Viennese operetta excerpts. Peter Dempsey has assembled 20 of them on this invaluable CD, has provided authoritative notes, and somehow contrived to bring them to us in better sound than I have ever heard them before. It is wonderful to have the original balance and individual acoustics preserved, while having all the surface noise wiped off.

You will hear the sweet-voiced Charles Kullman in Johann Strauss firstly, complete with backing chorus and a thrilling high C at the end of his Zigeunerbaron aria. Elisabeth Schumann whoops and trills and whistles her way through two excerpts, and Richard Tauber shares the microphone with a schmalzy violin and throbbing zither in the Operball excerpt. Tauber is also heard in the only excerpt recorded in Vienna, a duet from Giuditta where the conductor is Lehar himself. Some of the rarer records of Julius Patzak, Anni Frind and Franz Volker are especially welcome. The Belgian tenor Marcel Wittrisch is heard in three excerpts, and rightly so. His special way with the Grafin Mariza tenor aria is one of the highlights here, and this track is also one of the best pieces of restoration work.

I hope this indicates that interested shoppers who add this CD to their cart will have the time of their lives with this issue. In amongst a cart full of historical reissues I purchased recently it has been the prizewinner.

        4 out of 5 stars Great album except for the Title Track.......2000-05-02

        The third man theme orchestration on the first track is simply awful (bad enough to be humorous)! The rest of the CD is delightful with just zither with accordian accompanyment. There might be other instruments, but I'm not sure. Karras used a zither that was especially built for him which produced a very full and rather aggressive sound. He also repeatedly plucked the strings in many songs to produce a sustaining tone. I find that style of playing very interesting. "The Third Man" is one of my favorite movies. The opening credit showing Karras' hands playing the zither is, in my opinion, one of the great graphic achievements of that era. Most of the album is made-up of various themes from Strauss and operetta strung together. Each track may contain 3-5 themes. My favorite theme is #2 on track 21. The good original analog recording is nicely transferred to digital with little noise and appropriate dynamic range. Listening to this recording is like taking a quick trip to one of my favorite cities--Vienna!
