5 out of 5 stars Too bad we don't have the option of 10 stars...........2006-05-24

I just finished again listening to this CD that I've had for maybe fifteen years. I most often prefer complete operas, but of course those are not always available. For me, Fritz Wunderlich can do not wrong, although a very knowledgeable friend of mind objects to his German. I think his German is top drawer, but it's not my native language.

Il mio tesoro... has never been high on my list of arias, but when Wunderlich sings it as Folget der Heiffgeliebten... it took me many hearings before I stopped crying at the first two notes. Tearing is one thing, crying is a bit silly, but there it is.

His exquisite singing is only once slightly under pitch (I really don't care; I only remember it). Moreover, he has friends on this CD -- Grummer, Lorengar, Prey, Frick...

I think I have everything he recorded that appears on CD and I also have a DVD of the Barber -- in German, of course. My only discomfort is with Koeth who is a good singer, but of course a lyric and not a mezzo or even close to one.

5 out of 5 stars The greatest lyric tenor of the recorded era........2002-07-24

Fritz Wunderlich had it all -- an incredibly beautiful voice and the artistry to use it with drama or tenderness, as the music called for. He also had genuine emotional and musical integrity. He was almost certainly the greatest lyric tenor of the recorded era. Regretably, he died in an accident in his mid 30s. But, although his recorded career was short, he left a surprisingly large legacy of outstanding recordings, many of which are included in this 3-CD set. Some people may be put off because Wunderlich sang famous Italian, French, and Russian arias in German. PLEASE don't let that keep you from acquiring these recordings. When you hear Wunderlich sing, the language in which he is singing will seem inconsequential. Only the incredible beauty and artistry of his singing will matter. This man was special and so is this collection.

5 out of 5 stars Thrilling lyricism.......2001-10-10

Fritz who? You may well ask, for the great Fritz Wunderlich died before he'd ever achieved true international stardom. But to my ears, at least, he possessed the most beautiful lyric tenor voice on record. He had it all - superb musicality, power, warmth, and a gorgeous and immediately recognisable timbre. He could also be exciting when he wanted to, as his tour de force performance of Granada (available elsewhere) thrillingly proves. Wunderlich's death in 1966 - a few days short of his 36th birthday - deprived music lovers of a fantastic talent.



This 3CD set reinforces that loss. Among the many highlights included here is an unforgettable Folget der Heissgeliebten (Il Mio Tesoro) from Don Giovanni. It matters not a jot that Wunderlich is singing in German rather than Italian. He knew how to overcome the relative harshness of the German language with his poetic phrasing and honeyed diction. Here his breath control is amazing, and his passion transforms the character of Don Ottavio from a one-dimensional fop into a red-blooded hero. Tremendous stuff.



But for me his greatest achievement is his rendition of the aria Komm, O Holde Dame from Boieldieu's La Dame Blanche, featured on Disc One. Play this first, and you'll be entranced by the beauty of Wunderlich's faultless legato, then thrilled by the intensity and energy of the conclusion. (Admirers of Mario Lanza will note how similar Wunderlich sounds here when he reaches for the high notes.)



Showcasing Wunderlich's achievements in both opera and operetta, this set is the perfect introduction to one of the greatest tenors of them all. If you enjoy this, I'd also recommend his Deutsche Gramophon 5-CD set (simply entitled "Fritz Wunderlich"), which includes a sublime Pearlfishers Duet with Herman Prey and the aforementioned Granada.

5 out of 5 stars German bel canto indeed.......1999-06-13

This three CD set of Wunderlich is a gem. It features one of the most beautiful pure lyric tenor voices of the century at its absolute best. Though Wunderlich sings all the arias, including the Italian and French ones, in German, his innate musical understanding of the composers and the pieces conveys a musical and emotional authenticity rarely matched in other recordings. Listening to these arias, one can understand why Wunderlich's singing is described as "German bel canto": Wunderlich combines the German fine sense of musicianship, musical intelligence, and style with the Italian attributes of purity and evenness of timbre, open throated singing and excuisite legato phrasing. Just listen to the perfect rendition of "Komm holde dame" in the first CD, with its effortless, floating high notes and even bel canto style singing. Compare this with Wunderlich's interpretation of Pinkerton in the duet and aria from Butterfly, with its perfect diction and phrasing, singing that displays a complete understanding of Puccini's melodic line. And, for sheer joy and delight, to feel good about yourself and humanity, listen to the operetta arias of the third CD. This is the greatest recording of operetta arias in the world. Wunderlich loved to sing these songs and brought an enthusiam and flair to these arias that is simply infectious for the listener. If you've never heard Wunderlich, this is your golden opportunity to acquient yourself with one of the greatest voices of the century.

      4 out of 5 stars Wonderful Karita.......2001-04-01

      Karita Mattila is a total package. You enjoy her whole performance, even though it's (mainly) her glittering, emotion-filled lyric-dramatic soprano voice behing the growing success. A major review of a recent London recital with an ambitious programme started with descriptions of her appearance & costumes: the tall blond Venus from the North, a new Garbo! - Catch her live, opera or concert, if you can.

      Madonna looked the glamorous Eva Peron in film. Mattila could have, and she's a far better actress. She makes Evita her own in Don't Cry for Me Argentina in this recording. What a Kate on stage she would make in Porter's Kiss Me Kate (a sultry, athletic tongue-in-cheek feminist): listen to Wunderbar. Not all the material is ideally suited (I Could Have Danced All Night). But in songs like Tango d'amor and Nur nicht aus Liebe winen (the bittersweet Theo Mackeben song of the Zarah Leander fame) the voice, temper, music and her enjoyment in performing are perfectly matched.

      The Ondine production is classy, and the Tapiola Sinfonietta orchestra supports the star in lush orchestrations. -Don't be missguided by the poorly styled cover photo where she looks a 50's German operetta singer, she's much more alive:)

      3 out of 5 stars German psalms and Missa Duplex.......1999-04-19

      Stoltzer is one of the earliest German composers to have set Psalms in his own language. You won't find here the celestial disco which is the effect of Schutz's Psalmen Davids, rather you get a sober account half way between Latin motet and Lutheran chorale (what you would expect in other words). The recording has dated a little, but the reserve is more in the pieces than the performers.

        5 out of 5 stars Genius performs Genius........1999-05-26

        Brahms wrote many of these songs late in life, and Kipnis and Moore excel in conveying their gentle autumnal inevitability.

        Interestingly, the Wolf songs which fill out the second disk, great as they are, seem almost shallow in this context.

        Excellent sound.

        5 out of 5 stars Teutonic Verdi - Not!.......2002-05-09

        This is an abbreviated Don Carlos sung in German, so why bother? Because of the cast! The men are just dandy, but who cares. We recommend skipping their bits. Instead, listen to what Brigitte Fassbaender and the very great Edda Moser do with their aria's. Frida Leider class!

          5 out of 5 stars An Electrifying Live Version of a 20th Century Masterpiece.......2000-07-01

          Neglected in the LP era, Frank Martin's magnificent narrative song-cycle for solo voice and chamber orchestra, Die Weise von Liebe und Tod des Cornets Christoph Rilke (Ensign Christoph Rilke's Song of Love and Death) has come into its own on CD. Like most of Martin's music, it's been fortunate in its interpreters: Marjana Lipovsek (Orfeo 164881; conducted by Lothar Zagrosek) and Jard van Nes (Philips 442 535-2; Reinbert de Leeuw) both give superb readings, and each matches the description of the singer for whom Martin wrote the piece, Elisabeth Gehri: "a warm and velvety contralto voice of exceptional range and agility" (Maria Martin). Then there is Brigitte Balleys (Cascavelle VEL 1020; Jesus Lopez Cobos), lighter in timbre. Now comes this live concert version from 1984, and familiar though I am with the piece, I listened to this riveting performance with a totally fresh sense of awe at the work's power and beauty. Those who know Der Cornet from other recordings may be surprised that the soloist is a man; actually, the published score specifies only "low voice." Having a male voice narrate Rilke's epic tale of a young nobleman's experience of war, love and death brings out new and fascinating aspects of Martin's subtle yet sweeping setting of the text. And although the difference in voice type means that in one sense this recording stands apart from the others, there are two big plusses: first, Huttenlocher and Dunand have a long history as Martin interpreters, and second, Huttenlocher's German is the most idiomatic and subtly inflected of all. Indeed, I can't praise his performance too highly: sung with beautiful tone, superb diction and imaginative interpretive detail, it is a moving, masterful performance that fully deserves the bravos we hear at the end. This is a worthy addition to Huttenlocher's admirable Martin discography, which stretches from 1968 to 2000 (Golgotha, Et la vie l'emporta, In Terra Pax, Le Mystere de la Nativite). Excellent sound, with only a few odd noises between numbers to remind us that it's a live recording; full German, French and English texts. Not to be missed!
