Martti Talvela, Stuart Burrows, Christina Deutekom, Pilar Lorengar, Renate Holm, Hermann Prey, Gerhard Stolze & Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau Wiener Staatsopernchor & Wiener Philharmoniker, Sir Georg Solti Mozart was always an important and regular feature of Solti's career as conductor in the opera house and concert hall as well as in the recording studio and also as a pianist, and at the start of his career he participated in performances of Die Zauberflöte at Salzburg under Toscanini in 1937. Solti conducted Die Zauberflöte himself at Salzburg in 1956 to mark the 200th anniversary of Mozart's birth and again in 1991 when he made his second rexcording of the opera. Solti's first recording of Die Zauberflöte was made in Vienna in 1969 and was his first complete Mozart opera recording; it is now reissued in Decca "Originals" and is available at mid-price for the first time. |

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. |

Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau & Gerald Moore Given the nature and size of the set, we have included the complete sung texts in German with English translations and a mixture of translations and paraphrases in French. Expect nearly 500 pages of text to read ". . . for consistently high standards, thoughtfulness, sensitivity to words, perception and poetic instinct, not to mention the sheer quality of Fischer-Dieskau's singing, this has to be one of the glories of the gramophone, something to be prized even at a high price -- and eagerly snapped up for anything less."
