¡Wagner: Siegfried
¡Joseph Keilberth (conductor), Bayreuth Festival Orchestra & Chrous
Description
[Machine Translation] The biggest shock in the world of classical recordings this year! The first ever stereo recording of "The Ring" was not a Scholte recording! The live recording from Bayreuth in 1955 is now available in stereo! And now "Siegfried"! The Testament label, which has been providing us with one historical recording after another, has unearthed another surprise. The conductor is Josef Kaibert. The producer is Peter Andrew, a talented producer in the early days of Decca. The team of up-and-coming engineers from Decca and Teldec, the German branch of Decca at the time, attempted to record the entire "Ring" at a time when stereo recordings themselves were extremely rare. Not only can we enjoy the singing of the great singers of the past, such as Wintgassen and Hotter, who were still in their 40s at the time, and Varnai, who was in his 30s, but the tight conducting style of Kilebert, who dominated the world as a Wagner conductor, is also a major attraction. The most amazing thing about this recording is that it is so clear and dynamic that it gives the illusion that it is the latest recording. 4 CD set. Recorded July 26, 1955 at Bayreuth
