Wagner: Siegfried
Hopf, Uhde, Nilsson, H. Kraus, O. Kraus, Höffgen; Kempe
Bayreuth, 1960
$18.95
Description:
Hans Hopf, captured here at the height of his powers, is a commanding Siegfried, moving effortlessly between heroic outbursts and the opera’s more tender, introspective passages. Birgit Nilsson's arrival in Act III is nothing short of electrifying, her voice gleaming with brilliance and strength.
In contrast, Hermann Uhde's Wanderer falls short, lacking the gravitas and authority that Jerome Hines brought to Wotan earlier in the cycle.
