Works By Wagner/ R. Strauss/ Haydn/ Berlioz/ Britten |
 | Description: | The many speculations, articles, blogs and fan groups referencing the unpublished recordings of Jessye Norman can, in part, be laid to rest with this very special collection of previously unreleased Philips recordings of works by Britten, Haydn, Berlioz, R. Strauss & Wagner now released on Decca with the support of her family and estate. Ms Norman, the great singer in French repertoire and in German opera and song, made these six unreleased recordings over a ten-year period between 1988â??1998, when signed exclusively to Philips.
The first disc in this set, recorded in 1998, represents an invaluable studio recording of highlights from Wagnerâ??s Tristan und Isolde with Kurt Masur and the Leipzig Gewandhausorchester, with mezzosoprano Hanna Schwarz (BrangĂ€ne) and tenors Thomas Moser (Tristan) and a young Ian Bostridge (The Young Seaman). No other studio recording of her singing Isolde exists (with the exception of the â??Liebestodâ? with Colin Davis, Herbert von Karajan and Klaus Tennstedt).
Disc Two, couples music synonymous with Ms Norman, Straussâ?? Four Last Songs, recorded in May 1989 (her second recording of this repertoire), with Wagnerâ??s Wesendonck-Lieder, recorded in November 1992. Both were recorded â??liveâ? with the Berliner Philharmoniker and James Levine.
The final disc presents a sensational programme, tailor-made for the great diva. Recorded at concerts in February 1994 with the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Seiji Ozawa, the three queens represented in the programme are Brittenâ??s Phaedra, Haydnâ??s Berenice and Berliozâ??s ClĂȘopatre. A decade or so after the recording, approval was given for the release of the Haydn and the Britten, but Norman felt that the audio mix for the Berlioz was less than ideal. This has now been satisfactorily remixed and remastered for release.
* The release includes a 68-page booklet with new essays (En/Fr/De) by Cyrus Meher-Homji, Costa Pilavachi, and George Hall, sung-texts in original language with English translations, and many beautiful photographs
* Mastered from original tapes by Jonathan Stokes
