    Customer Reviews:

    3 out of 5 stars Coates, Austral, Widdop, Melchior, Schorr, Easton.......2007-06-15

    These "bleeding chunks" of Wagner's "Ring," recorded in London and Berlin between 1926 and 1932, are generally exciting and well-sung performances, but a lot of the British and German singers used were really just repiteurs of their time. The really golden voices belong to Florence Austral, young Melchior, Friedrich Schorr and Florence Easton, though Walter Widdop was much better Heldentenor than one usually finds today and certainly deserves honorable mention.

    The most frustrating thing about this set, aside from its episodic nature, was the schizophrenic use of five different conductors, each of whom had an entirely different way of shaping and pacing the work. Of the two used most frequently, Albert Coates and Leo Blech, Coates was decidedly the greater conductor. Every single note of every single phrase he conducts on these records has life, drive, clarity of texture, proper weighty tone and an almost palpable excitement. Indeed, in my view Coates is the most underrated conductor who recorded in history, and deserves to be better known for ALL of his work.

    The price is a little steep, but if you get the set, do yourself a favor, JUST listen to the Coates-conducted excerpts first, then go back and listen to the whole thing. You'll quickly see what I mean. My biggest frustration was that Coates was not chosen to conduct the final scene from "Siegfried" with Melchior and the greatly-underappreciated Florence Easton, who though she was not as good as Austral was certainly an outstanding singer. Mark Obert-Thorn has done a good job of transferring these old records. The original 78s had a LOT of hiss and "sandpaper" sound in them, since they were issued at a time when Victor and HMV were putting EMERY powder in the grooves to minimize needle wear. (Emery powder is the same kind of thing you file your nails with, so you can imagine how abrasive the sound is even on mint-condition discs!) In doing so, he has of necessity scraped a little of the overtones off as well, leaving a slightly "grainy" sound in soft wind and vocal passages, but that is a small price to pay for eliminating what used to be called "bacon frying" on the old records.

    Recommended with the above reservations.

    5 out of 5 stars The greatest Wagner singing - bar none.......2005-08-16

    This is the Ring that John Culshaw had so much fun with in his book, Ring Resounding, about the making of the Solti Ring. And he had a point. Yes, there is barely a third of the tetralogy recorded here (more than `bleeding chunks' but far less than the whole). Yes, we dart between London and Berlin and occasionally Vienna seemingly at will. Yes conductors (who didn't seem to be thought of as very important in those days) can change within scenes. So, on occasion, can singers - Act 2 of Walkure, for instance, has 2 Wotans, 2 Brunnhildes, 2 Sieglindes and Wotan No.2 doubles as Hunding! BUT...

    But here is some of the most glorious singing you will hear on any Ring recording. Ever.

    These days it seems to be the 50's that are lauded as the Golden Age of Wagner Singing - Hotter, Varnay, Nilsson, Flagstad (still), Windgassen, Vickers et al. But Hotter, magisterial and charismatic god that he could be, was prone to being hooty and woolly and even a bit wobbly, especially on an asthmatic day. Nilsson's awe-inspiring steely brilliance could leave her sounding a little cold and impersonal. At the other extreme, Flagstad's richer tones could make her sound a little maternal for my taste (Brunnhilde may be Siegfried's aunt, but she's not his mother!). Varnay was blisteringly committed in everything she did, but the voice as a voice? No cigar. Windgassen's Siegfried lacked the last ounce or two of vocal heft and he was apt to husband his resources a bit too much, especially in his eponymous opera. And so on.

    But go back a generation further and wow! It's in a different class.

    Let's start with Friedrich Schorr since he's the first of these greats to appear on these discs. In Wotan's `Abendlich strahlt' from Rheingold he is simply magnificent. This is a baritone bass-baritone as opposed to Hotter's bass bass-baritone (think Norman Bailey vs. John Tomlinson for modern local equivalents - on second thoughts, don't: it's not fair on two excellent Wotans!). Schorr's voice in 1927 was in prime nick (it got a bit strained at the top a decade or so later); focused, controlled, ample and with what I can only describe as a beat to it rather than any suggestion of wobble that gave it colour and character. Then there is the intelligence he brought to the character and the text. This is fully illustrated by taking practically any part of his role from Walkure - from the father issuing orders to his daughter through the crushed husband, the blind frustration of `heilige Schmach', the towering anger of Act 3 right through to what must be the definitive performance of the Farewell - certainly the one I always hear in my mind's ear. The Wanderer in Siegfried is no less wonderfully sung and the character has grown in maturity and resignation as well as gaining a sense of humour in his scenes with Mime and Alberich.

    Frida Leider's Brunnhilde strikes a perfect balance between the steeliness of a Nilsson and the mumsiness of a Flagstad. John Steane described her voice as "existing at that rarely achieved point where the heroic has not become inhuman and where the human does not undermine tragic dignity". Precisely. This is amply demonstrated in bar after bar of Walkure from the teenage whoops of her war cry through the inwardness and growing confidence of her plea to her father to the crowning heroic glory of her grand idea for a fire-girt rock and a hero to brave it, singing with reckless abandon and thrilling security at the same time. Sadly she is not with us for Siegfried or Gotterdammerung, though we get her earlier set of the last (butchered) scene of Siegfried with Rudolf Laubenthal as a consolation. I wish there had been room for her nonpareil of an Immolation, even though it wasn't part of the original set.

    The last of this triumvirate of unmatchable Wagner singers was, of course, Lauritz Melchior as Siegfried. His voice is simply a phenomenon - tireless, with a distinctive ring throughout its range, towering when loud (forging the sword), capable of real beauty and poetry when soft (the Forest Murmurs) and not as prone to rhythmical sloppiness as he's often made out to be. We have not heard his like before or since and probably never will.

    The rest of the cast are no slouches either. Walter Widdop as Siegmund can hold his head high in this esteemed company; Gota Ljunberg is a wonderful Sieglinde, young, sexy, alive to the rising passion of Act 1, the hysteria of Act 2 and the glorious outburst of maternalism in Act 3 alike. I have to say, I've never quite got it with most people's favourite Sieglinde, Lotte Lehmann (the Fidelio Leonora, yes, that's a different matter), so for me Ljungberg is probably the best of them all. Florence Austral is the Brunnhilde of Gotterdammerung - at her best in a Dawn Duet with Widdop as Siegfried, egged on by urgent conducting from Albert Coates (far and away the most exciting conductor on these discs). Her Immolation is excellent, if not enough to erase memories of Leider. Ivar Andresen is the blackest of Hagens (enough to make Frick sound cuddly!), Emmi Leisner an implacable Fricka and Maartje Offers a Waltraute who really draws you in to her narrative.

    It was122 sides on its original issue and in sound that is really staggeringly good (as it comes up on these Pearl discs produced by the ever reliable Mark Obert-Thorn), considering it was recorded just a few years after the introduction of electric recording.

    If you love Wagner singing of the absolutely highest standards and already have your favourite modern-sound version sorted, don't hesitate: treat yourself to the many, many unmatched performances on these discs, all for less than the price of a pretty dodgy seat at the opera house.

    5 out of 5 stars An abolute must.......2005-03-08

    This magnificent compilation of the greatest Wagner singers and conductors of the 20s and early 30s is an absolute MUST for everyone who is remotely interrested in how Wagner was done in the past.
    The greatest attractions are the magnificent interpretations of Friedrich Schorr, Frida Leider and the young Lauritz Melchior. Schorr sings Wotan in the excerpts from Die Walkure and Leider sings Brunnhilde. Melchior sings the young Siegfried. There is so much to treasure in this set. The English tenor Walter Widdop sings Siegmund and Swedish soprano Gota Ljungberg sings Sieglinde. The Walkure and Siegfried excerpts are quite consistant in the casting. Mime is sung by different tenors in Siegfried and although Wanderer is sung by Schorr in acts 1 and 2, the role is sung by two others Emil Schippers and Rudolf Bockelmann in act 3. None of them are as noble or as magnifient sounding as Schorr. Florence Easton sings Brunnhilde with Melchior in the duet at the end of the opera.
    Gotterdammerung, though, is much less consistantly cast, the only consistant casting being Florence Austral as Brunnhilde. The excerpts are much more spread and more brief than on Siegfried, which had almost all of Siegfried's scenes intact. Siegfried is sung by Walter Widdop in the prologue and acts 1 and 2 and Horst Laubenthal in act 3. These two are not as great as Melchior (who is?), but is still quite excellent. Hagen is done by Arthur Fear, Ivar Andresen, Emanuel List. Andresen sings Hagen's watch (Hier sitz ich zur Wacht) and the calling of the Vassals (Hoiho! Hoihohoho!). He is the most chilling and exciting Hagen I have ever heard. His rendition, especially the calling of the vassals, is really dominating and every time I hear it gives me shivers. No other Hagen is quite as compelling is evil sounding without overdoing it. He is, for me, the main attraction of the Gotterdammerung part of the set.
    The set also includes small excerpts of Rheingold with Schorr's rendition of the entry of the Gods to Vallhalla as the main attraction. And in addition to this there is an extra recording of parts of the Siegfried with Laubenthal and Leider. This scene is a little differently done than with Melchior and Easton, but both are great.
    I have not said anything about the magnificent conductors here. Main parts of act 1 of Walkure is done by the great Albert Coates and somewhat less successfully by Lawrence Collingwood. Coates and Leo Blech dominates the rest of the Ring excerpts with scenes done by John Barbirolli, Robert Heger and Carl Alwin. But the most exciting conducting of all is done by the magnificent Karl Muck in Siegfried's Rhine Journey and Funeral March. The Rhine Journey is done with so much youngfullness and describes the young hero's journey magnificently. The Funeral March is done very solemnly and very much as a tribute to the great fallen hero.

    So I would highly recommend this to all who is remotely interested in historical recordings or would want to know how Wagner was done is the past. The sound is really exceptional for its time and it is as good as any release from Pearl who is highly regarded as one of the best labels who releases historical recordings.

    5 out of 5 stars The Best Second "Ring".......2003-02-27

    After coming to know, love and perhaps becoming obsessed with the Ring through one of the modern stereo versions (e.g., Solti), you may want to hear another version. In my view, this classic version is the single best second Ring to get. It represents the fruit of a tremendous pre-War undertaking featuring many of the finest Wagnerian singers and musicians of the era giving performances that are astounding. Seventy-plus years later, the voice of Lauritz Melchior (for example) does not cease to amaze.

    The sound is just fine for its era. Pearl has done an excellent job remastering and joining the sides (remember, these were 78s). I can't recommend this set highly enough.

      4 out of 5 stars Wagner for the connoisseur.......2004-02-11

      For years opera lovers--and Wagner addicts in particular--had mainly the famous HMV recordings of Wagner's Die Walkuere from 1936-38, plus a "live" Covent Garden Act III under Wilhelm Furtwangler, and various short snippets, to document how singers approached perhaps what is Wagner's most popular Ring opera during the 1930-1945 period. Some collectors had access to MET off-air transcriptions, with wonderful performances of Walkuere directed by Bodanzky and Leinsdorf in the late '30s and early '40s. Then, there were the "potted" Ring excerpts from the late '20s.
      The unearthing of the treasures of German Reichsrundfunk Archiv (and the return of other items, seized by Soviet troops in 1945), has added considerably to our knowledge of performance during that period.
      This 1938 Die Walkuere, in really quite fine sound, does not include Act I, and Act II is cut, but the listener hears enough of this performance, which was most likely done for radio re-broadcast, to know that it is generally very good.
      The two stars are undoubtedly Rudolf Bockelmann (as Wotan) and Erna Schluter (as Brunnhilde). Bockelmann, known widely for his outstanding Kurwenal in the earlier Bayreuth Tristan under Karl Elmendorff and for his admired Hans Sachs, is magnificent throughout, and most of his music (with some unfortunate cuts in the second act monologue, notwithstanding) is given. Here is a supreme artist, who, but for the politics of World War II, might be better appreciated.
      Schluter, unlike Bockelmann, gave performances after World War II. Indeed, her Isolde (from 1948) is largely preserved and has been issued on CD. Here she is a very fine Brunnhilde, perhaps paling in comparison with her contemporaries, Flagstad and Leider, but who, after all, could compare to them? Still, she is very good.
      The Siegmund is Fritz Krauss, here well past his prime, but still an accomplished artist; one hear's age in his voice, but he still manages well enough. Maria Reining, fresher and younger than in the more familiar Rosenkavaliers from the late 1940s and early '50s, is quite good as Sieglinde. And Josef von Manowarda, one of Germany's finest bassos, takes the small role of Hunding.
      The Stuttgart Radio Orchestra plays well enough, if without the intensity of a Furtwangler. The sound, as I said, is quite good throughout.
      In short, to better understand Wagnerian performance of the period, to enjoy Bockelmann's fine etched Wotan and Schluter's Brunnhilde, this is a set you may wish to investigate.

              5 out of 5 stars Great Singing- Melchior Magnificent- BUY IT.......2006-07-28

              Lauritz Melchior defies the laws of singing nature in every performance in which I have heard him. His voice is beautiful, huge, expressive and he can vary the volume and tone exceptionally well.

              Florence Easton although in her upper 40's is an impressive Brunnhilde. She has a large silvery voice and phrases expressively. All the other singers are excellent and this is good early electrical sound.

              Fortunately this is an abridged version and features most of Siegfried's music without having to hear the excruciatingly boring, pretentious, silly and pompous spoken-music of dwarfs, giants, smurfs, gods and godesses. Wagner wrote some of the most beautiful and exciting music ever but his dialogues with symphonies which infest all of his operas put me to sleep. (Parsifal is musical Ambien). He needed a good editor and real sense of theater but he was too proud and pretentious to acknowledge that. Even Wagner worshipers sometimes talk more about the metaphysical experiences and meanings of the musical forms rather than the music and performance itself. To me the emphaisis is on the wrong thing. To me "THE MUSIC IS THE THING."

              Verdi could edit Otello, a masterpiece of Shakespeare, to leave the core meaning of the characters without exraneous scenes and music.

              My favorite work of philosophy is Plato's Republic. Fortunately Wagner did not try to set it to music.

              5 out of 5 stars THE FORGING!.......2003-06-14

              I'm not the biggest Wagner fan in the world, but the Forging of the sword in Siegfried has to be one of my favorite moments in Wagner, the music is so exciting, the music essentially forges the sword right before your eyes, while Mime is forging. And Melchior is beyond compare. Part of the fun of listening to forging is just the sort of jaw dropping "How can he keep that up? He's got 3 more acts to go!" which Melchior, more than any other tenor, supplies amply. He's just unbelieveable. Never a strain, and just a tremendous voice that soars out over the orchestra. One little thing is that they don't tell you who's playing Fafner, which is a little annoying, but he's the weakest link anywho. And of course Florence Easton is just great. Their "duet" at the end is fabulous. But if you get this for anything......it's the FORGING! And for 10 bucks when most Wagner sets cost anything from 60-70 bucks...........what are you waiting for? The only pity is that it's not a full recording. Alas. It's still worth it for the cheapness.

              5 out of 5 stars an overwhelming performance.......2001-06-13

              I purchased this title after reading that Siegfried was the most "inaccessible" of the Ring operas. I wanted to save money, so I bought the least expensive version I could find. From the first time I played it, however, I was riveted: the opening sequence bristles with foreboding, and an aura of incontrovertable fate haunts the entire performance. Melchior is at his peak (if you have never heard him before, his 1930's and 40's heldentenor has never been equaled elsewhere for warmth, depth, and power). The sound quality is surprisingly good -- in fact, any imperfections of sound only serve to enhance the brooding atmosphere. I now have the Solti and Barenboim versions -- they are both fine, but this is the one I return to. I truly believe it is sung and played as Wagner would have wished. The price is right; this set is a treasure.
