05. Stricken Peninsula. An Italian Rhapsody (arr. Philip Lane) [8'15]

Roderick Williams- baritone; Jennifer Johnston- mezzo; BBC Symphony Orchestra conducted by Martyn Brabbins

Albion Records ALBCD028 (recorded October 2015; CD issued 2016)

(Digital download; flacs, cover, booklet and inlay scans)

Recording venue: BBC Maida Vale Studios, London
Recording engineers: Simon Hancock* and Neil Pemberton; Producer: Ann McKay

Here's an interesting collection of little-known works by Vaughan Williams, almost all requiring some reconstruction to be performable and here receiving their first recordings. Discoveries indeed and dating from RVW's earliest to his latest periods. To the best of my knowledge, only the so-called Four Last Songs have been subsequently recorded - by Roderick Williams with Andrew Davis for Chandos.

The major work - A Road All Paved With Stars. Symphonic Rhapsody - is an adaption of music from the comic opera, The Poisoned Kiss, and concentrates on the romantic and dramatic rather than the comic elements of the story.But probably the most ear-opening work is the Three Nocturnes beautifully sung by Roderick Williams.


Martyn Brabbins' direction and the orchestral playing by the BBC Symphony is excellent but I could have wished that Roderick Williams had also been entrusted with The Four Last Songs here. The BBC's recorded sound is also first class.

Review

"Vittorio Gnecchi's Cassandra initially seemed headed for certain success. Toscanini himself conducted the 1905 Bologna premiere, but the Byzantine machinations of Italian musical politics foreshortened the piece's Italian performance history, and forced Toscanini to break off relations with the composer. The occasion of Salome's 1906 Italian debut inadvertently set the stage for a scandal, when Gnecchi offered Richard Strauss the piano-vocal score of Cassandra. When both Cassandra and Strauss's new Elektra both were performed in Dresden during the 1908-9 season, "surprising similarities" (as the booklet puts it) were noted between the two operas. Strauss's stature resulted in the Italian composer's being accused of plagiarizing Elektra, written four years later! Despite high-profile foreign advocacy -- a 1911 Vienna performance with Maria Jeritza, conducted by Mengelberg; the 1914 American premiere featuring Rosa Raisa - the damage was done, and both Gnecchi and his opera faded into obscurity.

Radio France's 2000 exhumation of Cassandra indicates that the furore was not only unfair but unjustified. Perhaps the overlapping subject matter -- within Aeschylus's Oresteia, Strauss's opera represents the "sequel" to Gnecchi's -- predisposed listeners to exaggerate the musical resemblances. If you know Elektra, Gnecchi’s opening musical gesture -- an ominous three-note fanfare, followed by orchestral turbulence -- will seem shockingly familiar. Some of the orchestral interludes sound very Straussian, particularly (as at the end of Act I) when the horns come prominently into play; so do the sidling chromatic harmonies at the entry of Electra and Oreste, here young children.

But, as a totality, Gnecchi's opera is unmistakably Italian in idiom and spirit. The fullness created by the clear, warm choral sonorities in the Prologue and Act I opening conjures a different world from Strauss' darting solo strands. Clitennestra and Egisto, transmuted here into a soprano and baritone, are not Strauss's decrepit hedonists but, appropriately for the chronology, youthful adulterers, expressing their illicit ardor in an impassioned, lyrical duet. The quietly proud brass chorale marking Agamennone's entry contrasts with Strauss's more contrapuntal deployments, while the layering of voices in the ensuing ensemble is a familiar Italian technique. The splashy tutti beginning Act II sounds like a more opulent version of Mascagni. Where Gnecchi and Strauss achieve some similarity of mood, brooding or craggy, they do so by very different means.

The Radio France production is quite good. Enrique Diemecke's conducting combines the best features of the German and Italian schools - the former in his feeling for instrumental sonority, the latter in his willingness to give the music its head and to breathe with his singers. He shapes the music to highlight the dramatic moments - only the change of mood at Clitennestra's entry oddly lacks juice. He draws excellent playing from the Montpellier orchestra: convincingly Italianate in style, but more polished than the customary Italian pit band.

The casting is mostly from strength. The prophetess Cassandra doesn't even appear until the second act, but comes to dominate it; the final curtain falls at her cries of "Oreste! Oreste!" (another resemblance to Strauss!), predicting doom for Clitennestra and Egisto. Tea Demurishvili commands her limited stage time with a big, juicy dramatic mezzo, Slavic rather than Italianate in its bright, squillante timbre and quick vibrato. She doesn't inflect the music or text in any particular detail, but she phrases intelligently and invests her lines with plenty of dramatic energy, conveying real sorrow at her vision of Agamennone’s death.

As indicated, Clitennestra and Egisto here fulfill the "young lovers" function. Denia Mazzola-Gavazzeni, an experienced dramatic coloratura, is a notch lighter than the dramatic soprano the music seems to demand. Her overmouthed vowels on her entry sound like an attempt to simulate a bigger vocal presence; her invocation to the sea goes screechy up top. But she makes the most of her resources, filling out and inflecting her lines with style, playing with dark, rich colors in the low range, and really feeling such musical points as the change to the major in the love music. Opposite her, Arnold Kocharyan inhabits Egisto with a liquid, expressive baritone, marred only by the occasional rough lunge into the top.

Alberto Cupido should be a terrific Agamennone: his ringing, full-throated, manly tenor ideally suits the lofty, regal pronouncements of his arrival. But, from the start, the hint of a beat in his voice suggests that he's pressing to put out a sound of the right amplitude. As he forges on through the role's tricky high tessitura, the beat becomes a full-scale wobble, and the tone becomes trying and yowly.

Still, with the opportunity to discover a "lost" work, giving an Italianate slant to "Classical" themes generally pre-empted by Germans, my reservations must be minor. If you love Italian opera, particularly in the post-Puccini, verismo-influenced style, you owe it to yourself to hear this -- you won't be disappointed."  Stephen Francis Vasta - www.classicalcdreview.com

Review

"Reacquaintance with this 1976 recording reminded me how we once took such a mouth-watering cast for granted and yet conversely might still have thought it was somewhat wasted on an opera which was long considered second if not third-rate Mozart. I still do not think that it is the equal of his greatest works but it contains much grand, stately and also tender music, and when it is as well sung and vocally acted as it is here it emerges as dramatically convincing, too.

One might cavil at the fact that it we hear three quite similar mezzo-sopranos - castrati being unavailable and it being too early to permit the casting of a counter-tenor as Sesto, for which I am grateful - but they are differentiated by timbre and characterisation and just happen to be three of the most beautiful voices of the era in Janet Baker, Yvonne Minton and Frederica Von Stade. Baker is still in her vocal prime with a thrilling upper extension, scintillating coloratura and both the venom and regality to bring Vitellia alive as the wronged princess who believes that she is to be passed over. Just listen to her in no. 10, the Terzetto "Vengo...aspettate", complete with ringing top B's and real vocal fire; I recently compared this with Diana Damrau's version in my review of her Mozart recital album and I'm afraid it was very much to the latter's disadvantage. Minton, by comparison is more desperate and plangent but equally resplendent of voice, while Von Stade is youthful and touching in the supporting, minor role of Annio - how I love her voice with its flickering vibrato and intrinsically gorgeous tone.

As if all this were not enough, we are treated to a sonorous, sturdy Publio from Robert Lloyd, a silvery Servillia from Lucia Popp and, finally, a noble and touching, smoothly vocalised Tito from Stuart Burrows. His mildness and sweetness of tone are not out of place in his depiction of the clement Emperor.

Colin Davis brings lithe, taut direction to the score; nothing drags and the Royal Opera House Orchestra and Chorus respond alertly and energetically. Obviously this is no period performance but there is absolutely nothing stodgy in its tempi or overblown in its textures.

Most people will not want more than one recording of this opera in their collection and will initially make a selection of either a HIP version or an earlier, more traditional performance. With its singing and playing this good and given that I have no special attachment to supposed historically informed practice per se, this set is my first choice."Ralph Moore www.amazon.com

Concerning the italian pronunciation of the english cast is interesting what Luca says at www.amazon.com:

"The only problem with the cast is that, despite the involvement of the great Ubaldo Gardini as Italian language coach, you undoubtedly feel that they are not singing or reciting in their native tongue. The pronunciation is very very good, but inflections, in several passages, are clearly not Italian. The problem affects, here and there, with ups and downs, everybody, except Lucia Popp and the Chorus, both very natural and clear in their Italian vocalization.
On the contrary, the magic touch of Gardini is clearly recognizable in the free, but always context-sensitive, pacing of recitatives.
On the whole, I do not think that many other singers could do as well in this genre of work."

James Levine and the whole cast are very good in this live recording, but in my humble opinion is the extraordinary Tatiana Troyanos  who steals the show here.

Review

"Thankfully, days are past when K 621 was dismissed as statuary and marmoreal at that. Its renaissance commenced in the mid-Seventies with the release of Mozart: La Clemenza Di Tito which is still one of the Top Ten recordings of Mozart ever made: it's stellar. Further impetus came from Festung Europa. Recorded at the Salzburg Festival on the 3rd of August 1977, here is the cast, headed by Big Jim and the Vienna Philharmonic: Hollweg ,Neblett, Malfitano,Troyanos , Howells,  Rydl .

First and foremost, the stereo recording is excellent – and the Vienna Philharmonic has a lion’s share. It plays fierily. Indeed, given Tito’s standing at the time, everyone sings with zealotry if not missionary fervour. I cannot fault Levine’s pacing. He clearly believes in the drama of it all and stokes it accordingly like a fireman in a Union Pacific 4-8-4 locomotive. Other than the pronounced use of vibrato from most of the cast (which is more of an observation than annoyance) there’s much here to enjoy even if Davis is not unhorsed. Troyanos revels in the torments of Sesto and supremely so. Neblett has a big voice and she belts it out convincingly as a harpy extraordinaire. Maliftano is silky as Servilia. Hollweg may not have much bloom to his voice but at least he sings imperiously and not like a wimp. Rydl could have dined out on this performance for the remainder of his career. Anne Howells does what she can with Annio. Everything here works – not least the big ensembles at the end of each act which are seismic in impact. Suspension of disbelief – always a key determinant in K 621 – is apparent upon closure.

To his dying day, Mozart believed in Opera Seria. You should too!" -

Recording venue: Walthamstow Assembly Hall, London and Royal Albert Hall, London*
Recording engineer and Producer: Bert Whyte

Many of these classic recordings and performances of some of the finest compositions by Vaughan Williams and Arnold have appeared in so many different transfers and on so many different labels that I thought it worthwhile bringing together the best sounding of them in one post. I have posted both of the Omega-Vanguard CD rips here before om MIMIC- 15 March 2017and 20 April 2016. (They are no my rips and many thanks to the original provider.) The three 24bit/96kHz downloads are from Countdown Media, via HD Tracks.

As there has been a lot of interest lately in differences in sound quality of various digitizations of Everest originals, comparison here may be of interest. For me, I am still very happy with the quality achieved by the Omega-Vanguard transfer engineers in 1994 and find no obvious improvement in the 2014 and 2018 digital transfers by Countdown Media. Indeed the CDs often appear warmer and less brittle but with no loss of detail. It appears that there is no HD digital download available for The Wasps Overture. The only currently available version is on a Harkit CD but I haven't heard that. Many of their other Everest issues have been decidedly inferior.

These recordings of both Arnold works and the Vaughan Williams Ninth Symphony and Job have never been superseded although the Arnold Third Symphony has been matched by Vernon Handley and the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic for Conifer (now Decca) and Job by Vernon Handley for EMI (again with the London Philharmonic). Some have not liked the Royal Albert Hall's (at that time) cavernous acoustic but it seems appropriate for Job, if not for the Wasps Overture. (Although there is plenty of organ detail throughout Job, real organ enthusiasts will find the Vision of Satan in Scene VI  overwhelming in Andrew Davis' recording with the Bergen Philharmonic for Chandos.)

[flac & cue; cover, inlays, booklet & disc scans]







Strauss is certainly one of my favorite composers and his Elektra is one of the operas I would take with me to a deserted island. But I also have a weakness for this one: "an opera inside an opera" as it has been rightly considered. It is well known that Kempe’s is the reference recording  but this wonderful live recording from the Wiener Staatsoper brilliantly directed by Karl Böhm, well deserves to be heard. Janowitz repeats her magnificent incarnation of the primadonna , beautifully accompanied by the stratospheric Zerbinetta of Gruberova , the passionate composer of Agnes Baltsa, the heroic Bacchus of Jame King and the perfect music master of Walter Berry.

Review

"Many productions at the Vienna State Opera can claim to be model interpretations of the works in question, and this is certainly true of the production of Richard Strauss's Ariadne auf Naxos that opened well over a quarter of a century ago in November 1976. This production is still in the repertory after thirty-five years, and even if the casts have naturally changed in the meantime, a number of the singers who took leading roles in the 1976 production have continued to appear in Vienna over the years and in some cases over the decades.

As Zerbinetta, for example, Edita Gruberova was heard more than ninety times at the State Opera alone, mostly in the 1976 production. The brilliance of her coloratura singing and the subtlety of her characterization made her a popular favourite with press and public alike, just as they have done in her present-day repertory.

Another singer who remains at the heart of our musical life is Agnes Baltsa, for all that she appeared far less frequently as the youthfully impetuous Composer. Many of the members of the 1976 audience must have suspected that in the brief duet between Gruberova and Baltsa they were hearing two of the leading bel canto exponents of later years, making it all the more gratifying to be able to recapture that moment now on CD. It would have occurred to few people in Vienna in 1976 that the other main roles in Ariadne can seem thankless tasks, especially with set beside competition of this order.

In 1976 the roles of Ariadne and Bacchus were taken by Gundula Janowitz and James King, by this date in their careers both fully attuned to their roles. With casting like this, the difficult final scene in the opera with its “miracle of transformation” does indeed become the culmination of the evening after Gundula Janowitz, with her laser-sharp accuracy, has already triumphed in Ariadne's great laments and James King has mastered the terrors of the young god's brief entrance scene. King sang this role over a period of three decades, fully equal to the demands of the part and entirely worthy of being immortalized on disc.

And who ultimately can compete with Karl Böhm on the conductor's podium in terms of his long experience of Ariadne? If the first night flowed along with an ideal balance between stage and pit and if even the smallest of the secondary roles were convincingly cast, then this was due above all to a great conductor intimately familiar with Strauss's music." http://www.arkivmusic.com/classical/album.jsp?album_id=689618#details

Vilde Frang: Nielsen and Tchaikovsky Violin Concertos

EMI 6025702
01. - 03. Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky - Violin Concerto in D major, op.35 [35'00]

04. - 07. Carl Nielsen - Violin Concerto, op.33 [36'36]

Vilde Frang- violin, Danish National Symphony Orchestra conducted by Eivind Gullberg Jensen

EMI 6025702 (recorded August 2011; CD issued 2012)

(CD rip; flacs, booklet, cover * inlay scans)


Recording venue: DR Koncerthuset, Copenhagen
Recording engineer: Jan Oldrup; Producer: Jorn Pedersen

This superb recording has been available for some time from the usual internet download sites but the links all appear to be dead. As it was selected by Andrew Mellor as his top choice for the Nielsen concerto in Gramophone magazine's Collection feature in the May 2019 issue, I thought it worthwhile to post again. It's not my rip; many thanks to the original provider. I have added a digital download for the booklet - although this purports that the recording is by Warner Classics.

Unusually, I find myself in total agreement with Gramophone Collection's conclusions. (How on earth they could have published a survey by David Fanning of recordings of Nielsen's Fifth Symphony in their February 2019 issue without even mentioning Sakari Oramo's recording for BIS is quite beyond me.). On first hearing I wasn't sure about this performance but now I find it impossible to choose between the Frang/Jensen and the equally fine Cecilia Zilliacus/Blendulf on dB Productions, recorded in 2014, for the Nielsen concerto. I guess that the coupling might make the choice easier - the over-popular Tchaikovsky concerto for Frang and a selection of Nielsen's music for solo violin for Zilliacus. Zilliacus was Andrew Mellor's runner up.

Frang is ably supported by the Danish orchestra and conductor Jensen in both the Nielsen and the equally fine performance of the Tchaikovsky concerto.

Review

"Christine Brewer may not be a household name even among committed Wagnerians...yet...but her careful, thoughtful emergence into the impossibly difficult role of Isolde in TRISTAN UND ISOLDE is well documented in this release of the entire opera, a recording dating back to concert performances from 2002 with Donald Runnicles conducting the BBC Symphony Orchestra. For this listener the release of Brewer's complete Isolde is a bit early as hearing her transform herself into owning the role has produced a far greater Isolde than that committed to this recording. Yet the performance is solid and moving and does give the world a starting vantage from which to view the progress of this great Wagnerian soprano.

Christine Brewer is blessed with a huge voice that can whisper with urgency and rise to the high notes with utter ease and bloom like few other sopranos today. Her Isolde has grown gradually through the experiences she has gained as the sole constant in the now famous TRISTAN PROJECT, a multimedia performance created by Esa-Pekka Salonen conducting the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Bill Viola's inimitable video art projections behind the orchestra, and Peter Sellars' innovative placement of singers and chorus throughout the hall. The original productions were in 2004 in Los Angeles followed by highly regarded performances in Paris, and now repeated in Los Angeles in 2007 as a completely polished work only to travel now intact to New York City. Throughout these performances Christine Brewer has grown as an Isolde more multifaceted in vocal splendor as well as in understanding the complexities of Isolde's plight. Hearing her now is revelatory, an Isolde to match those of the greats.

This complete version of TRISTAN UND ISOLDE is well crafted by conductor Donald Runnicles, a man who finds the erotic sweep of the music, building climaxes solidly and offering collaborative support to his singers. Brewer's performance is excellent though not nearly as richly sung in 2002 as in 2007! Her Tristan is in firm hands with John Treleaven who matches Brewer well enough in the Act Two love passion but truly excels in his Act Three delirium. The Brangane of Dagmar Peckova is especially strong as is the King Marke of Peter Rose and the Kurnewal of Boaz Daniel. An added pleasure is the voice of the then unknown Jonathan Lemalu is the tiny role of the Steersman!

Though one would hope the now-mature Christine Brewer will record her current glorious Isolde, this is a very fine, atmospheric, well executed and recorded TRISTAN UND ISOLDE and will always be important, not only as a solid performance, but also as the first version of Brewer's young Isolde. Highly recommended."Amazon.com- Grady Harp, April 07
