Elly Ameling now more available .......2007-03-07

I had a 33 rpm album of Elly Ameling singing Schubert lieder accompanied by piano and clarinet at times. It was one of my all time favorite albums so I have been disappointed that I have not been able to find it anywhere on CD.

Now I can just buy this excellent collection. So much music in one place! Since I confess that I am far from an expert on the rest of her records, I look forward to hearing her sing many other styles and composers.

I think it is silly to criticize her for not singing Wagner, for example, since her version of many songs, especially lieder, are nothing short of sublime. I would like to hear how many Wagnerians sing Schubert or Mozart.

I doubt if they could approach the skill and soul with which Elly Ameling sings lieder.

Delight in every note.......2006-03-10

To speak as briefly as possible about this superb collection from an equally superb singer, what can I say but that Ms Ameling possessed a voice that shone with radiant warmth and star-like shimmer? And unlike many another light lyric soprano, Elly Ameling was possessed of a very high standard of musicianship, considerable intelligence, and a sort of immediate charm that captivates the listener.

So many of her recordings have still to be released on CD, but this 5CD-set goes some way towards remedying the situation. The repertoire spans a wide variety - French mèlodies, Lieder, light-hearted "sentimental" songs, Bach, etc. - and in each piece, Ms Ameling shows that quality of pearl-like beauty. It is a beauty which is also extremely pretty - a beauty of voice that is never overbearing and over-ripe, but perfectly blossoming upon the tree of inspiration.

I recommend this set unequivocally. It truly is sheer delight.

While they last..........2005-05-17

Elly Ameling held the quiet stage for recitals of great artistry and dignity for several decades and sadly most of the enormously successful CDs of her long career output are now unavailable. For those who have little access to the documentation of this very special artist, this box set is a must. It is a compilation of many of her recordings with differing accompanists, conductors, orchestras and composers. And while not all of the choices for inclusion here would be considered her greatest moments, there are enough works that sustain the warm memories of the little Dutch hausfrau who quietly and simply paid homage to composers with her clear and intelligent musicianship and radiant voice.

Ameling was known to schedule recitals of Schubert cycles and songs and in the afterglow of her performance answer the demand for curtain calls with additional Schubert melodies: she gifted her audience with the dignity of honoring a composer's works by maintaining the focus on that composer rather than milk the audience with the usual encore applause-getting favorites. And special moments such as quietly and pensively strolling through the orchestra during the Mahler 4th symphony to arrive at front stage, unapplauded, just in time for the opening line of her singing - those simple homage to composers and collaborators made her selfless manner endearing to audiences.

Despite the fact that Ameling's voice was on the small side she was always able to muster the projection to carry her message solidly in context with an orchestra. Yes, other more famous singers have recorded Ravel's quintessentially French SHEHERAZADE, but few have the perfection of diction and aura of mystery that Ameling maintained. Whether singing with piano or orchestra, or interpreting Bach, Mozart, Handel, and Vivaldi with the same degree of involvement as Brahms and Schumann and Schubert, Elly Ameling spanned a career that engendered passionate commitment from her fans. And this boxed set is a pocket full of memories to be treasured. Buy it before this too becomes unavailable. Grady Harp, May 05

Treasures From a Treasure.......2004-09-25

Treasures from a Treasure.

Ameling, one of the world's most beloved recitalists is captured here in a 5 CD collection offering some of her most beautiful recordings of song. While we are used to her perfection in songs of Bach, Mozart, Schubert, Schumann, Faure and Hahn, an added joy is her "pop" side, tackling - without a whiff of pretension, Porter, Kern, Gershwin, Ellington, et al.

What an absolute joy it is listening to this amazing artist sing these songs with an almost uncanny natural ease. There is no resorting to a "pop" voice and yet most of these pop standards songs sound as though they could have been written for her. Clean attacks, sometimes a bit of the pop technique of hanging on to a consonant longer than a classical artist normally would shows an appreciation and understanding of the style. Still, there is never once a compromise of her vocal beauty.

I like the way the songs have been arranged for her voice in that she sort of sings them clean, unaffected in the first half and then lets loose and kinda "swings" with it adding embellishments but never really changing her voice (Price, von Stade and other favorite singers of mine seem to have always added a breathy quality to much of their crossover material.)

Ameling doesn't resort to trying to "let her hair down" or get down and dirty, but rather the honest with which she approaches every one of these songs shows how much she enjoys singing them and her style is as refreshing as stumbling onto a cool spring on a sweltering summer's afternoon. A wonderful surprise.

More than fully earned praise for an exceptional singer........2003-07-15

As I had the privilige of hearing this outstanding Lied-singer during her long career in Holland and being the proud possessor of almost all her recordings, I cannot but fully agree with the professional and joyful review of Mr. Robert Holliston from Victoria, B.C. Canada.
Yes, it is unbelievable that of about the 150 recordings Mrs. Ameling made during her long career (for the greater part of course on the 'oldfashioned' LP's, as well as the innumerable Dutch live-recorded radio-concerts), so few CD's have been released.
Speaking of tradition: it was the page-turner of the Wigmore Hall in London who told Mrs. Ameling after her first recital in this hall, that she reminded him of Elisabeth Schumann. (And he certainly didn't mean her looks only!)
For those who are eager to hear her singing Ravel's Shéhérazade (just one example of stirring imagination combined with her Art of Singing) I can tell you that Philips released a 2-box CD of this work in 1999, combined with Debussy's La Damoiselle élue and a compilation of French mélodies, i.e. Debussy, Fauré, Duparc, Satie. One of the gems is Caplet's Le Corbeau et le Renard which even make children, who know the fables of La Fontaine, revel in the singing of the quarrelsome birds....
Her brilliant accompanyist is Rudolf Jansen. Let us cherish great artists in their art!

Absolutely Beautiful - Great Tenor.......2007-07-27

The recent loss of Jerry Hadley is a tragedy all around but the world of opera and operetta has lost a shining light. This CD of absolutely beautiful music is a wonderful showcase of Mr Hadley's supreme talent. This is a wonderful selection of the best in Operetta and Mr Hadley's lyric tenor sings them all with feeling and emotion. His diction and pronunciation is close to perfection, I have never heard any foreign tenor sing these songs better. If this CD is ever available again, do yourself a favor and add it to your collection - you will not be sorry. Mr Hadley you will surely be missed and I am honored to have this CD in my collection.

Not since Wunderlich!!.......2004-03-29

I know it's heresy to say this, but this music hasn't been sung so beautifully by a tenor since the great Fritz Wunderlich.

What is it about Jerry Hadley that no matter what he sings, he seems to be just right for the music.

Oh, yeah - I forgot. It's because he is a fabulous musician and probably the most underrated singer in the world today.

Of over 600 songs, Fischer-Dieskau and Gerald Moore realized over three-quarters: these are those. Gerald Moore was of course as important to this project as Fischer-Dieskau.

DGG's sound is excellent.

A memento of a productive partnership........2001-11-19

EMI commemorate in this double CD a remarkable partnership in the C20th world of music. It began in Berlin in 1926. It had been 20 years since Franz Lehar's "Die lustige Witwe" became the light opera that everyone wanted to see. In places like Beunos Aires it had run simultaneously in five theatres in five different languages. Lehar's subsequent productions had met with diminishing success. His latest light opera, "Paganini", which contained some of his best music, had flopped at its Vienna premiere. Nervous and dispirited as its Berlin premiere drew near, Lehar wrote to the tenor Richard Tauber, "You must sing in Berlin, a second flop is inconceivable for me. I'm suddenly afraid of everything to do with the theatre - I'm getting old".

Tauber obliged. The Berlin production was a resounding success, Tauber sometimes being required to repeat "Gern hab' ich die Frau'n gekusst" as many as five times. Lehar admitted, "Richard, during this moment I have been born again as an artist!" And so began a great final flowering of Lehar theatre productions, all featuring the Austrian tenor Richard Tauber.

Fortunately the Lehar-Tauber association resulted in an extensive series of recordings, in many of which Lehar conducts the orchestra. EMI began issuing a collection of them towards the end of the LP era, and now, in 2001, they are collected onto this double CD. I read the claim that a great many of the tracks appear on CD for the first time, but here in Australia most have already been available on CD.

I don't always find Tauber unexcelled in this repertoire, preferring other tenors sometimes and their recordings. Several of the "Paganini" recordings were made before the Berlin season opened. Tauber and his then wife Carlotta Vanconti sound as though they are sight-reading unfamiliar music. I once possessed several of the "Das Land des Lachelns" items on 78s. The 1929 sound seemed robust and full then, but seems sadly emasculated here.

The Essential Coloratura Album.......2007-02-16

The artistry of Rita Streich presented in this multi-disc set represents an art that in all likelihood would not return: the Viennese school of coloratura and lyrical singing.
Together with Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Rita Streich studied voice with Maria Ivogun, a great coloratura soprano of the German-Austro school. Together with her colleague, Streich excelled in the Viennese-style coloratura singing. This album presents her wide range of repertoire from Austro-German to French to Italian opera; from classical opera to romantic Strauss operetta; from lieder to folk songs.
What this album does NOT include is Streich's Russian repertoire, some thing that, owing to her maternal descent, she was most adept at.
Unlike Schwarzkopf, Streich owned a voice that is out-right lyrical. It is even lighter, even more agile, even more silvery, though not as forceful as Schwarzkopf's on demand. Listen to her delightful "Bastien und Bastienne", her Mozart concert arias and enjoy her highly articulated, musically refined delivery. It is the exemplary Viennese singing. Her soubrettes as well as lyrical heroines are nothing short of being superb.
Not being as internationalised a singer as Schwarzkopf, Streich nonetheless was a representative figure of Viennese coloratura singing. Some times I would even feel that her coloratura is even more superior to that of the great dramatic coloratura of the 20th century, Joan Sutherland, again a very much more internationalised singer than Streich.
If you are undergoing voice training, this box set is essential.

Well, perhaps the party wasn't as jolly as we thought. Part one of this 1815 "Schubertiad"--found in volume 20 of this complete Schubert song edition--ended with a couple of jolly drinking songs. Here you get the fun stuff at the beginning (another drinking song), and end with The Grave. It's a perfect musical portrait of what a few too many drinks and some morose speculation will do to an otherwise pleasant evening among friends. Vastly entertaining. --David Hurwitz

A Goethe Schubertiad. Hyperion Edition no. 24.......2000-08-01

Schubert: A Goethe Schubertiad. Hyperion Edition no. 24

No praise can be too high for the singing and playing on this disc, featuring four of today's finest singers in a beautifully balanced selection of Schubert's settings of the greatest of the poets by whose words he was inspired.

It begins with "Schäfers Klagelied," given a wonderfully dramatic and sensitive performance by John Mark Ainsley; he is exquisitely detailed without ever going too far, and his feeling for language, the savouring of certain words, is remarkable - listen, for example, to the phrase "die ganze Wiese so voll" in which the last word is dwelt upon just slightly longer and given a sense of the ache behind it. The whole performance is beautifully judged, with the quiet heartbreak of the first and final sections contrasting with the more dramatic middle. The poem is slight enough, but it is sufficient material for Schubert to enchant us, and I cannot think of a finer performance of any of his Lieder - singing such as this is simply incomparable.

Where does one go, after that? Just about anywhere on this disc, is the answer - perhaps Christine Schäfer's rapt performance of the neglected masterpiece "Der Gott und die Bajadere," which tells the story of the dancing girl who spends one "sweet night" with a visitant god who dies in her bed - the girl then tries to throw herself upon his funeral pyre but is given short shrift by the priests who tell her that only a wife may do this - however, she ignores them and does it anyway, whereupon the God and the girl's spirit are seen ascending to heaven. Schäfer's lovely, burnished tone, the fervour of her singing and her fascinating sense of the language make just about every other soprano sound thin in timbre and generalized in interpretation.

Elsewhere, Michael George gives a noble, stirring account of the wonderful "Geistes - Gruss" with Graham Johnson providing a poetic postlude, and Simon Keenlyside an expertly judged account of the touching "Der Goldschmiedsgesell" in which he evokes to perfection the simple loving nature of the apprentice.

Probably the best - known song on this disc is "Erlkönig," and the performance here can stand comparison with the best. Ainsley takes the part of the narrator and Erl - King, Schäfer the child and George the father, and their singing makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up - as for Johnson's playing, it equals that of Gerald Moore - there is no higher praise. Schäfer is touchingly innocent and fearful as the child, George wonderfully paternal and mellifluous as the father - especially fine is his "Es scheinen die alten Weiden so grau." Ainsley's impersonation of the gruesome spirit king is truly frightening - his melismas on the words "spiel" and "singen" cannot fail to induce shivers of dread, and his narration is wonderfully evocative - even words such as "Kind" and "warm" are tasted to the full, the dramatic "grausets" is properly chilling, and the all - important final line is truly heart - rending.

Correction.......2006-12-13

Now folks, both of what the two other reviewers wrote about the tragical death of Fritz Wunderlich is wrong. Wunderlich died in hospital at September 17 1966. He had broken his skull, when he fell down the stairs in the hunting-house of a friend. Late in the evening of September 16, Wunderlich, as usual when not at home, had phoned his wife in Munich. He was very tired from strolling through the forest the whole day, making out the ideal locations for the hunt, which should start early in the next morning (Wunderlich was a passionate hunter). After he had wished his wife a good night, he went to the staircase in order to go down to his bedroom at the first floor. He still wore his heavy hunting boots - with open shoestrings! As walking downstairs, Wunderlich struggled over the open shoestrings and grabbed for the banisters, which was not more than a rope, fixed to the wall. The banisters teared out, and Wunderlich fell down the whole stairs. Fritz Wunderlich died in hospital the next day. It was only short before his 36'th birthday. An exceptional singing career had come to an untimely end. Some people believe that Wunderlich was drunken at the time of accident. If this is true can't be proven any more. But still this is not what his close friends said, regarding his accident and his death. In my opinion Wunderlich was the last of the really great tenors of the last century. All the tenors which came to fame after him (sorry folks, even such maestros as Pavarotti and Domingo) lack a certain quality in singing. It's the ease of breath flow, or singing on the breath without pushing the voice, it's the overtones, the legato, the mezza voce, the messa di voce and many more things - in short: the overall beauty of the voice through both registers. Wunderlich was the last tenor who had all this. Other examples are Caruso, McCormack, Gigli (despite the sobbing in his later recordings) and of course the wonderful Jussi Björling. But these are only some few names. If you listen for example to the cd's in the box "Famous tenors of the past" you will find that there were many very good and outstanding tenors in the first half of the 20'th century and - as we can only assume - in the time before the invention of the grammophone. Take a close look at todays famous tenors (I know, there are some quite good and promising ones) but what are they in comparison to those tenors (or better to say, to their voices and singing) I just mentioned before?

Please make your own decision.

Fritz Wunderlich can do no wrong...........2006-05-05

... okay, maybe. It's just that I've never heard a recording I didn't love. And I prefer that he sing everything in German even when that means not using original language.

This is a bit strange because I'm most often bugged by Don Carlos and Vepres in Italian (just a personal quirk). Of course, I'm also bugged by dropping the "s" in Don Carlos, which is always incorrect. The man's name IS Carlos whether in Italian or French.

I tried to write Mr. Avila a personal note, but could not, so let me say that Fritz Wunderlich did not die of cancer, but a dreadful accident in Scotland (I'll not go into the whys and wherefores, I just wanted to set PART of the record straight.)

The Wonder of Wunderlich.......2005-11-22

Deutsche Grammophone does it again! This is an extensive 3-cd compilation album featuring the artistry of the great German tenor Fritz Wunderlich in a variety of vocal repertoire - Baroque cantata/oratorio, opera and Lieder. Like the other critic pointed out, I first heard Fritz sinigng a superb Tamino in the Karl Bohm Magic Flute, although I have also heard him sing Lieder opposite the mezzo soprano Christa Ludwig and baritone Dietrich Fischer Dieskau, who were his contemporaries and colleagues. Wunderlich died tragically in 1966 of cancer. He inspired a generation of purely lyric tenors or "tenors di grazie" whose charming voice would never roughen and lack grace. His Germanic style earned him popularity in World War II Europe and he was the leading exponent of Lieder in the 50's. His tenor voice is glorious, as close to a male angel as possible. On this recording, we are treated to sumptuous arias from Bach's Christmas/Easter Oratorios, and movements from 2 cantatas. Also noteworthy are the unsurpassed performances of Mozart tenor heroes- such as Belmonte from "Die Entfuhrung Aus Dem Serail" (Abduction from the Seraglio) and his unbeatable Tamino from Die Zauberflote The Magic Flute. He sings bel canto opera arias fo tenor, from master composers Rossinni, Bellini and Verdi. While I don't much like that he is singing Italian arias in German, one must remember that at this time, in the LP Era of World War II Germany and Austria, German-born opera singers sang Italian opera in German translation/revisions. While many German singers could indeed sing in Italian, they were mostly trained to sing it in German because of excessive national pride and because Germans viewed Italian opera as course and un-melodic. Still, there have been superb German singers who sang in Italian like Wagner diva Birgit Nilsson,baritone Dietrich Fischer Dieskau, tenor Peter Schreier, soprano Edda Moser, baritone Walter Berry, tenor Herman Pretty, all post-Wunderlich sensations. Wunderlich sings Lieder in one CD with great and unrivaled musicianship. Especially impressive are the Viennese pieces. Further to the cd's this album is equipped with photos of Wunderlich and his family and a detailed profile biography.

I wish I could give this release more than 5 stars: it's terrific!!!.......2005-10-28

I knew little about the German tenor Fritz Wunderlich (1930-1966), except reading the accolades given to his recordings and performances by reviewers in "American Record Guide" over the past 13 years. I knew Wunderlich recorded the role of Tamino in the famous DG recording of Mozart's "Die Zauberflote", with Karl Bohm/Berlin Philharmonic (Now on DG Originals CDs), but was not aware of what a wide range of repertoire he had until hearing this release.

This release has a wide variety of Wunderlich's discography, including Bach arias from his Christmas and Easter Oratorios, and movements from 2 cantatas; his Mozart roles in "Die Entfuhrung aus dem Serail" (Eugen Jochum/Bavarian Radio Orchestra) and "Die Zauberflote" (Karl Bohm/Berlin Philharmonic); a variety of arias and duets by Rossini, Bellini, Verdi, Richard Strauss, mostly sung in German, and with Hermann Prey, baritone and Erika Koth, soprano in many of the duets; Baroque arias by Handel, from "Xerxes" (including the famous "Ombre mai fu" sung in German) and "Julius Caesar", selections from Monteverdi's "Orfeo" (an early track from 1955 sung in Italian); Schumann's "Dichterliebe", 4 Beethoven Lieder, including "Adelaide" and "Der Kuss"; and 9 Schubert lieder, including "An der Musik," and "Der Musensohn", all with Hubert Giesen, piano; Popular songs such as "Granada" and Viennese songs, with chamber orchestra accompaniment. There are no texts for the songs, but you may have text booklets with other CD releases, so don't really need them when you hear Wunderlich's beautiful voice.

There is a booklet with articles about Wunderlich's career, including a preface by his widow, Eva Wunderlich, photos of Wunderlich as a boy and young man, with his wife Eva in 1965, and children Constanze, Wolfgang, and Barbara. I enjoy reading and looking at the booklet, even apart from listening to the beautiful recordings.

Wunderlich was a genius, and his voice sounds great in every track, mono (some, but not a majority) and stereo (most of the tracks in the 7 discs are stereo) alike. If you love great music, and opera, but like me aren't often of a mind to sit still for 3 hours to listen to one, get this. It's a great release, and reasonably priced to boot. I'm thankful to God for great music, for the ability to hear and feel, and for Fritz Wunderlich and his service to music lovers everywhere.

Customer Reviews:

Highly Enjoyable.......2005-12-19

Ths recording has its faults, but is still extremely enjoyable. I have have to agree with one of the previous reviewers about the conducting. It does sound quite detached and lacks all spontaneous quality, but the singers still manage very nicely. The recording sound also comes across as being far away, but it really doesn't make a difference because it isn't bad at all. The singers are all very good. Much as it pains me to say, you can tell that as far coloratura goes, this is just about Kenny's limit. She nevertheless has such an exquisite and full voice that she easily makes up for it, especially in the quartet. Highly reccomended.

A Recording that is original, authentic, and enjoyable.......2005-07-17

THE ABDUCTION FROM THE SERAGLIO (DIE ENTFUHRUNG AUS DEM SERAIL) was both a critical and popular success in Mozart's lifetime and while it is not revived as often as the three Da Ponte Operas (Marriage, Giovanni, and Cosi) or THE MAGIC FLUTE, it has never been completely out of the repertoire. Its overture is a popular work in symphonic concerts and a few of its arias find their way into the concert arena.

In some respects the opera was revolutionary as is the case in so many Mozart works. The music has what is called a "Turkish" flair which was quite popular in Mozart's day. The Arabic world was seen as mysterious and exotic and anything Arabic was all the rage. Mozart does his best to give the music of the opera what was believed to be an authentic Arabic sound and used a wide variety of instruments to achieve this effect. It was also one of the first masterful scores for the German opera form known as singspiel where the arias are separated by spoken dialogue rather than musical recitative. The music worked for the stage, was loved by the audience, and sets a higher standard for music of the stage.

Many times recordings from "period instruments" can sound strange to the modern ear because we are used to a fuller symphony orchestra than would have been the case in Mozart's day. Nikolaus Harnoncourt is able to use period instruments to make this recording sound as authentically Mozartarian (I'm not sure there is such a word but I'm using it anyway) and pleasing to the modern listener. The soloists do a great job, the spoken dialogue is not jarring as it can be in some recordings, and it is an overall appealing set.

There are a number of good solid recordings of this work available. Two of the standards are the set under the direction of Ferenc Fricsay and another set directed by Sir Geog Solti. Both are highly praised and can provide an enjoyable listening experience, but if you are a Mozart buff, or want to hear a fresh recording of a great yet often neglected work, the Harnoncourt set is just for you.

Singspiel as it should be done.......2000-07-10

Certainly Harnoncourt is a controversial director. But what do we have here? A rather outdated story which in its own time was already particularly implausible. The comic effect would not even qualify for the laughing track of our modern sitcoms. Yet the music is just too good to dismiss it. Harnoncourt found the redemption key. A rather crisp tempo over all, a choice of bright and raw sonorities allows us not to dwell too much on the unlikely story. A few excellent singers, well directed, allow us to appreciate the wonderful pyrotechnics of the Mozart arias. The result? We do not force our laughter anymore and we leave with a wonderful sense of optimism. The all is well that ends well shines thorough the performance. What is even better, we leave this performance finally realizing that technically this was the first of the great Mozart operas, that some of the arias have nothing to envy the subsequent works. Then again Mozart fans knew this secret all along. It is the merit of this performance to show this to the newcomer. And to the critic of Harnoncourt to consider that perhaps he does have a valid point, that Mozart never intended this opera to be a mellifluous work, but a dynamic romp.

Finally ! die Entfurung treated seriously !.......2000-01-11

And it is an eye opener ! For starters, Harnoncourt costum built the turkish instruments that the score calls for, and that creates such a diversity in sound, that it is as though the dust and old varnisch has been lifted of an old stuffy painting to reveal the Rembrand underneath. Very precise, and extremely exciting is the way Harnoncourt chooses his tempi, justified by years of thorough musical research and a rich understanding of performance practice of the 18th century. Excellent soloists, particularly Matti Salminen sticks out. Extreme contrats in the characters also creates an extremely HUMAN story, what Mozart is all about in the end. If you play this stuff as background music, do NOT buy this disc.

Sterile conducting; some interesting singing.......1999-11-27

To my ear, Harnencort's conducting sounds detatched, like he's not enjoying the music much, even though he tries to sound playful with fast tempi and lots of percussion in the overture. The tenors and the women sound overrehearsed, sacrificing fun for precision.

Matti Salminen's Osmin is very interesting, in that it is the most Wagnerian-sounding available Osmin on record. Matti Salminen puts Hagen-like murder into every syllable, even the coloratura sections. It's awesome, but the phrase "bull in a china shop" keeps coming to mind.
