Weber: Der Freischütz
RecommendedLise Davidsen (Agathe), Andreas Schager (Max), Sofia Fomina (Ännchen), Alan Held (Kaspar), Markus Eiche (Ottokar), Franz-Josef Selig (Eremit)
Frankfurt Radio Symphony, MDR Leipzig Radio Choir, Marek Janowski
It is carefully done, and due attention is paid to Weber’s inventive score, but the result is frankly pedestrian…There’s good singing here, led by Lise Davidsen’s sweet-toned Agathe, who sings... — More…

Richard Strauss: Orchestral Songs
RecommendedSoile Isokoski (soprano)
Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin, Marek Janowski
Strauss singing doesn't come much better than this. No doubt the composer himself, with his love of the soprano voice, would have been enthralled by Isokoski's glorious singing. He might also... — More…

it’s the orchestra which catches attention, with Janowski coaxing heartfelt playing from the strings and above all the horns, who somehow come to signify all that is most hopeful in this great... — More…

Wagner: Der fliegende Holländer
RecommendedAlbert Dohmen (Der Holländer), Ricarda Merbeth (Senta), Matti Salminen (Daland), Robert Dean Smith (Erik), Silvia Hablowetz (Mary), Steve Davislim (Steuermann)
Rundfunkchor Berlin & Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin, Marek Janowski
Janowski's conducting is crisp and fleet-footed, shaping the music naturally and fluently...[Dohmen] is a warm anti-hero, but too soft-grained to sound demonically desperate. Matti Salminen's... — More…

Janowski draws on all his operatic experience to make the melodic lines live and sing. Everything has shape and colour, but these frequent dark undertows are never allowed to wallow in sentimentality.... — More…

Rundfunkchor Berlin & Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin, Marek Janowski
It has spontaneity of something which has sunk so deeply into the performers' minds and souls that they can throw caution to the wind and still be accurate...Elsner is a wonderfully sensitive... — More…

those who don't know the least often heard of the symphonic poems should be amazed by Marek Janowski's sympathetic, detailed interpretation; but even Straussians don't often get to hear Die Tageszeiten…I... — More…
