Orchestra of the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden

Donizetti:

Don Pasquale


Fernando Corena, Juan Oncina, Graziella Sciutti, Tom Krause, Angelo Mercuriali,

Wiener Staatsopernchor und Orchester, István Kertész

Recorded - Sofiensaal, July 1964; Kingsway Hall, June 196

"Under Kertész", Corena is an attractive buffo... and Krause makes an incisive Malatesta. Graziella Sciutti is charming from beginning to end, bright-toned and vivacious, and remarkably agile in the most difficult passages. The 1964 Decca recording is excellent, with plenty of atmosphere as well as sparkle."The Penguin Guide to Compact Discs

Schoenberg: Moses und Aron

Schoenberg: Moses und Aron

Sung in German. Live Recording from the Vienna State Opera 2006, Co-production with the Teatro Real, Madrid

Directed by Reto Nickler and Stage Design by Wolfgang Gussmann


Franz Grundheber & Thomas Moser

Chorus and Orchestra of the Vienna State Opera, Daniele Gatti

World Premiere

“Despite the flood of brilliant music that evokes God, Moses, Aron, Israelites, an orgy, and everyone and everything else, the music is essentially only a messenger. And that is the radical, reflexive idea here: that even this opera itself is probably inadequate to convey the basic unknowability of a higher power. That Schoenberg even attempted to address all of this -- using a multiplicity of techniques in the same piece -- is a bit formidable. He tackles a project with dimensions and implications that are far beyond what most of us can even conceive.” MusicWeb

Choir & Orchestra of the Vienna State Opera, Gerd Albrecht

It is a truism that each evening in the theatre is a unique event that cannot be repeated, even as part of a run of performances. One such exceptional performance was the first of three concert performances of Saverio Mercadante's rarely performed Il Giuramento, threatened with cancellation when the tenor scheduled to sing the main role fell ill and it seemed impossible to find a replacement. In the event, Plácido Domingo sang the part flawlessly after only a day in which to learn the role, thereby underscoring what, even then, was the exceptional position that he has maintained in the operatic world ever since.
