Another rare and fascinating document of Max Lorenz's art during the later years of his career. Again I don't know how this excellent broadcast recording suddenly turned up and who to give credit to for sharing his tape with the world. I only had to make very minor pitch corrections. Act 3 was basically perfect from start ot finish, as I received it. Sadly 15 minutes in act 3 are missing.

Grob-Prandl sounds fantastic. Her Isolde,her Brünnhilde,her Turandot are outstanding.I my opinion the best dramatic soprano after the war.

Grob-Prandl is about 36 here. The voice is perfectly equalized from top top to bottom - so healthy. She has a way of approaching the top notes somewhat 'from the side', initially with a narrow , slightly squeezed placement which quickly opens up. Melchior used to sing that way also. She is most impressive and apparently the voice was absolutely huge in the theater. She's an almost exact contemporary of Nilsson and no doubt would have been far more well known without that competition. Lorenz is 52 or thereabouts and the years of singing the heaviest repertoire are showing here, though I prefer him to Svanholm's nasal placement and scooping. Sebastian paces the work thrillingly. Some of the tempi would choke a horse, but the two principals manage with extra breaths. A wonderful document.

Many thanks for this rarity. Grob-Prandl is really amazing!

Grob-Prandl sounds so girlish here, almost like a Verdi soprano. She could have handled Aida, surely.

it was of course official decca-policy to "prefer" and "allow" only their birgit into broadcasts and major opera events. they even blocked dernesch with karajan from salzbzurg for the met walkuere

Dernesch is a 3rd class singer who would sing Amme next to Nilsson during the year of Nilsson;s retirement

Very nice! One of the things that immediately draw my attention is the woodwind section, especially the bassoon - Wagner sounds SO different in French :)
