5 out of 5 stars Not since Wunderlich!!.......2004-03-29

I know it's heresy to say this, but this music hasn't been sung so beautifully by a tenor since the great Fritz Wunderlich.

What is it about Jerry Hadley that no matter what he sings, he seems to be just right for the music.

Oh, yeah - I forgot. It's because he is a fabulous musician and probably the most underrated singer in the world today.

I also have a feeling that no small measure of the success of this effort is the incandescent conducting of Richard Bonynge.

5 out of 5 stars Well re-mastered collection of historical recordings.......2007-05-14

This 2 CD set gives a rather complete overview of Richard Tauber's recordings for voice and orchestra made between 1919 and 1946. I assume that most listeners will be attracted to only one of the two CDs, as the musical material contained in the discs aims at different audiences. Fans of opera, like myself, who value Tauber as one of the greatest lyrical tenors of the last century, will enjoy his legendary renditions of Mozart arias like "Il mio tesoro" (Don Giovanni) or "Dies Bildnis ist bezaubernd schön" (Die Zauberflöte) on CD 1. As a lyrical tenor Tauber to this day has been rivalled in the German-speaking world only by Fritz Wunderlich. Those listeners, on the other hand, who like Tauber for his interpretations of Lehár operetta and popular evergreens like "Dein ist mein ganzes Herz" or "Ich küsse Ihre Hand, Madame" will be more than happy with CD 2.

Without intending to offend anybody's musical preferences, I still feel that waltzing along in Viennese dialect was not what Tauber's musical talent and mastery of voice were actually asking for. I, therefore, regret that in his later years he increasingly moved away from singing "grand opera" towards performances of lighter music.

Keeping in mind that the latest recordings of the present set were made in 1946 (two years before Tauber's premature death from lung cancer), nobody should expect high-fidelity stereo sound. However, all songs were carefully re-mastered, making the most of the original material, e.g. reducing background noise to a minimum and lifting Tauber's voice to the centre (sometimes making the orchestra barely audible). For all fans of the great Austrian tenor - whatever their musical orientations may be - this 2 CD set is a must.

4 out of 5 stars How to present a simple folk song........2002-07-26

Richard Tauber's recordings continue to be reissued. This CD includes a series of German folksongs he recorded with Mischa Spoliansky at the piano in 1926. Highly-prized by serious music lovers, who regretted the fact that Tauber was wasting his talents on the down market, popular repertoire of his time, they show how this extraordinary singer could find exactly the right manner to present a simple folk song.

Tauber finds exactly the right manner for the other items collected here also, although some of them do in truth fall into the down market category, and the orchestral accompaniments are sometimes unworthy. All are sung in German, some in dialect, and the famous Tauber "mezza voce" is freely used.

Collectors will find many ratities here and the transfers are as good as can be expected given the age of the originals, dating from 1926 to 1935. 74 minutes, however, gets to sound perhaps like too much of a good thing, especially as there is only a very slight pause between each track.

    3 out of 5 stars Oh, no, not Dein ist mein ganzes herz plus English version .......2005-01-06

    Why must record companies endlessly churn out the same familiar stuff, when Tauber recorded many hundreds of songs and operatic items?

    And, as another reviewer has justly indicated, at least make the CD contents audible. It's just too irritating to have to keep altering the volume because some engineer didn't bother to get the level right in the first place.

    Isn't it possible for recording companies to set a common standard of volume level, particularly when the originals were recorded in a constricted dynamic?

    Okay, apart from the rant, Tauber still sounds fine, but some less stale material would be nice. How about next time including some of his radio and stage recordings, such as excerpts from his final Covent Garden performance as Don Ottavio?

    4 out of 5 stars High in charm but low in volume........2003-03-21

    Reissues of recordings by the Austrian tenor Richard Tauber are beginning to feature in the Naxos catalogue. This CD presents 18 of them and runs for 60 minutes. Of the eight Lehar items, four are sung in English, and Lehar himself is the conductor in another of them. The recordings date from 1927 to 1939. Rarities include two little songs in which Tauber provides his own piano accompaniment.

    Everything Tauber attempted gets my attention. I don’t wish to hear again, however the adaptation of the Strauss waltz “G’shichten aus dem Wiener Wald” that is included here. I eagerly await a reissue of something called “Love Lost Forever More” which featured in “Blossom Time”, one of Tauber’s films.

    David Lennick’s transfers are satisfactory, but the volume level is very low.

      4 out of 5 stars Tauber for the first buyer.......1999-01-02

      Richard Tauber was, in my opinion, the most seductive and complex singer of this century. His voice was excellent, but not in itself, just as a vehicle for an infinity of shadings, in a plethora of styles. He was arguably the greatest ever operetta singer but his gifts were perfectly expressing themselves in lied, in popular song and in a great part of the opera repertoire ("heldentenor" excepted). Like Kreisler in violin playing, Tauber represented the essence of the Viennese spirit. His vocal specialties included the sweteest mezzavoce or headvoice one could hope for. He was accessible and highly refined in the same time. For the very low price of this Gala CD, you can taste the complex artistry of Richard Tauber, both in his German (better) period and in the "English" one. The reason I'm giving 4, not 5 stars to this CD is that I believe his all-German CD concotions to be more valuable. But for this price...

        If the concept of an operatic tenor plying the pop charts with a broad range of songs d'amour is hardly a new one (see also Mario Lanza and Luciano Pavarotti), it's one that has enduring appeal, especially when entrusted to the talents of an established master like Placido Domingo. Culled from his albums De mi alma Latina ("From My Latin Soul") (volumes 1 and 2) and Be My Love, this collection ably finds the common ground between Hollywood and La Scala, and wends its way through a Latin-inflected romantic songbook that stretches from Rome to Rio. Whether mining the sentiments of filmdom's Francis Lai ("Love Story") and Maurice Jarre ("Somewhere My Love") or pop standards like Bert Kaempfert's "Spanish Eyes" and "Somewhere over the Rainbow," Domingo infuses them all with a grace and drama that belie the sometimes overly precious arrangements that back his efforts. The singer has aimed for timelessness here, and largely hit the mark. --Jerry McCulley

        Placido Domingo is a legend and this CD only prooves that he is not only a legend in the field of Opera but as well as popular music (Crosover). Excellent interpretation. I love it.

        1 out of 5 stars Domingo's "continuing tradition" is one worth ending!.......2001-06-28

        Classical artists' attempts to cross over to the many varied popular music genres, and vice versa, are rarely pleasant experiences especially for informed and knowing devotees on either side. Domingo's is by far is not only one of the worst but one of the saddest. Domingo's own liner notes attests to the "huge influence" and "lasting inspiration" that the sources of these popular songs had on him. Domingo must have devoted a remarkably great degree of effort overcoming these to become one of this generation's great classical vocalists. But despite this Herculean effort, they tragically resurfaced as evidenced by the universally poor quality of virtually every element of this album. The recordings of Florence Foster Jenkins illustrate well what happens when someone doesn't know any better. Domingo does know better and still couldn't help himself proving bad habits never die. That is what makes Jenkins' effort so funny and, regrettably, what makes Domingo's so sad. The great Domingo "tradition" is more than well documneted in so many previous wonderful recordings and this CD clearly demonstrates he has little left to do in the studio except discredit himself. But he's is only following the same path so many before have traveled in their declining years. And as usual, those in the know are amazed but never surprised.

The lasting Domingo tradition was documented on recordings many years ago and "Songs of Love" represents all that's left for him to do in the studio. Like so many before him, he's simply following an all too familiar path in his declining artistic years. Those in the know are always amazed but never surprised.
