Richard Wagner
Lohengrin
Karl Ridderbusch, James King, Gundula Janowitz, Thomas Stewart, Gwyneth Jones, Gerd Nienstedt, Friedrich Lenz, Willi Brokmeier, Raimund Grumbach, Richard Kogel
Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra and Chorus
Rafael Kubelik
This is a beautifully sung and recorded version of 'Lohengrin'. The top quality cast of singers has all of them in excellent voice and even Ms Jones as Ortrud is captured before her swooping up to notes became a gimmick. Kubelik's conducting is always well paced and he never lets a bit of the drama get away from him. DG, generally have managed to balance the recording so that the singers are not too near and the orchestra and chorus being miles away - but, every now and then, the old habit returns. The general feeling of space is surprising though one may think that the opera performance takes place in a giant barn!
