WOW.......2007-03-27

This may be the best music value per dollar in the Amazon Catalog!

Beethoven's Grosse Fuge is the most intense and cathartic music ever written. Klemperer's version, with string orchestra, is perfect for this piece.

The Adagio and Fugue is Mozart at his most Beethoven-ish.

I've owned a vinyl recording of these two pieces (the same version, by Klemperer) for some 45 years!

In addition, EMI has thrown in Eine Kleine Nachtmusik & more.

What are you waiting for??!!

A great EROICA and a great GROSSE FUGE.......2005-11-12

Otto Klemperer turned in a great recording of Beethoven's EROICA Symphony (No. 3 in E flat Major) and of the GROSSE FUGE, an orchestration of a movement from a late string quartet with the Philharmonia Orchestra about 45 years ago. The EROICA is big and brash, with slower than normal tempos (for today) but is warm hearted, and in a genial, humane manner somewhat resembling Furtwangler (without variations in tempi) or Bruno Walter. I, III, and IV are played a little slower than what has become the norm today; there is no exposition repeat in I.
But allegro movements do not drag, and Klemperer gives the impression of a solid, granite like work of art to be admired, like a great sculpture. It suits Beethoven's EROICA well, but would not suit a Haydn Symphony, for example.

The GROSSE FUGE is an intense piece, rather like some of Beethoven's late piano sonatas: the HAMMERKLAVIER, for example. It is not easy to listen to, but grabs you by the shirt and says "GIVE ME YOUR FULL ATTENTION." It is beautiful yet intense; it is not peaceful or restful music. GROSSE FUGE works well in orchestral form, and Klemperer's intensity serves Beethoven's late work just fine.

Recommended for both works. I also like Karl Bohm/Vienna Philharmonic(DG) and Szell/Cleveland (Sony) for the EROICA.

You get what you pay for.......2004-12-04

In the Brandenburg Concerti, the tempo varies, trumpet volleys sound like French Horns, and the flute is off tune half the time. The harpsichordist was good but in one of the concerti, decided to enter at a different tempo than had been set by the rest of the orchestra. Since he had to play some very fast runs later, it is no surprise that he wanted to slow down the orchestra, but maybe they should have worked it out earlier. The orchestra sounds leaderless and out of sync at times. Can't find the groove. Violins are competent but playing with an orchestra that needs to practise what they are going to play a little more.

That covers the first 2 of 40 CDs. Don't know if I can bring myself to listen to the rest. Somebody who didn't know Bach would wonder what the attraction is after listening to this.

Disappointing.......2003-07-29

I bought this disc based on my love of Wunderlich's Dichterliebe, which is one of my favorite CDs of all time. Well, I could hardly have been more disappointed. This is a collection of sappy old tunes, sung in a very sentimental and overdramatic way. If you're a fan of Bocelli and his ilk, go for it. Otherwise, stay clear!

A Must Have Wunderlich CD.......2000-12-19

This is a "must have" for any Wunderlich fan. I have a large Wunderlich collection full of many duplicate songs. I have heard none of these recordings before, however. A very positve plus is that many of the selections were recorded during the last year of his life - and in stereo! The collection opens with a stereo recording of "La donna mobile" in Italian! This is the first I have heard Wunderlich sing this in the original language. It then includes the same Tosca aria that is included in the 5 CD Deutsch Grammophone collection sung in German - however this recording is in stereo. Actually, I hesitated to buy this CD since it was called a "Historical Recording." I was sure that it would all be mono recordings. I was pleasantly surprised to hear the many stereo renditions. Many of the songs are different interpretations of pieces released by a major label. Some are songs that he recorded for a label, but have not been released yet - like "Tiritombe." Also, "Ich kusse ihre hand..." has only been released on casette. The CD ends with "Granada." This is the same arrangement as the DG release - but a different, and still very thrilling, interpretation!

The CD also has many previously unreleased recordings of his earlier singing years. It is fascinating to chronical the vocal maturity of such a wonderful artist. The singing fare is decidedly light - but like everything else he sang, Wunderlich does it right. This is singing at its highest!

More Wunderlich - Gott sei dankt!.......2000-10-17

I was thrilled to get this cd with some Wunderlich arias I had never heard before. I have loved his voice since I first heard it (on LP) in 1966. The fascinating thing about this cd is that there are selections recorded as early as 1954 (when he was only 23) back-to back with arias recorded in 1965 and 1966, just before he died at the age of 35. The voice was beautiful at 23 but what a tremendous amount of growth in sound and interpretation just 11 years later. The booklet also provides some biographical information I had not seen before; e.g. in his early days, Wunderlich had a heavy Pfalz accent (the region in which he was born). He had to overcome this -- which obviously he did. His diction and enunciation are among the purest ever recorded. I visited his hometown in Kusel, Germany as few years ago. You can see where he was born; there is a library with costumes, pictures and recordings and a concert hall named after him. (Even the local furniture company is called "Moebil Fritz"! Buy this album -- it's a treasure!
