Richard Wagner
Der fliegende Holländer
Leonie Rysanek, George London, Giorgio Tozzi, Karl Liebl, Rosalind Elias, Richard Lewis
Chorus and Orchestra of the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden
Antal Dorati
Although this is a very well sung performance, Dorati's slow tempi are not really to our taste. Also, the engineers have reduced the bass a little and the resulting sound is somewhat top heavy and 'squashed'. Having said that, there is much to recommend this set and the critics now appear to consider this a valued interpretation. The arrival of the Dutch ship in Act 1 is worth a listen as it is a blast.
Recorded: 1962
Booklet contains a commentary in English and a libretto in German/English
Decca 2BB 109
Stereo 3 LP's
Records manufactured in the UK in 1962
Condition:
Vinyl - Good, clean and unmarked.
Sleeves - Clean and unmarked but with some discolouration.
Book - Clean, unmarked and intact - some discolouration.
Box - Intact. Clean and unmarked - some discolouration, scuffing and wear on edges.
Please remember
- owing to their weight, the postal charge for LP's is expensive.
- our records have always been handled with care and stored correctly. However as we are disposing of our entire record collection, time precludes us playing every single item to check whether there are any faults that are not apparent from a purely visual check. To avoid any dispute buyers should be aware that they buy our vinyl with the above proviso in mind.
