Digital Booklet
|
"It is something of a miracle that a recording of Tristan and Isolde as accomplished as this one can emerge from a single concert performance. It is highly dramatic, tremendously well sustained and very well recorded."
- Gramophone
"... superb playing of the Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra, from which Janowski demands heroic efforts in speed and intensity ... soprano Nina Stemme is the ranking Isolde of our time; she has a beautiful voice and paces herself perfectly ..."
- BBC Music Magazine
"... run out and buy this Tristan ... the most 'alive,' dramatic, excitingly sung and conducted performance of the opera (since Karl Böhm's in 1973) ... it’s nearly that good in performance quality and the sonics are immeasurably better ... grabs one’s attention with its dramatic impetus ... listen to the third act. I’ve personally never heard anyone’s performance of Tristan sung this dramatically; it completely rivets you to the speakers and doesn’t let go ... a tremendous listening experience. Thus again I exhort you to acquire it ... this may become the Tristan you end up playing most often."
- Fanfare
Recorded live in concert in March 2012, this stunningly presented version of Wagner's Tristan und Isolde serves as a showpiece for conductor Marek Janowski, the Rundfunkchor Berlin and the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin. They are joined by several acclaimed vocalists, notably soprano Nina Stemme singing the role of Isolde.
