Mozart: Così fan tutte - E. Moser, Fassbaender, Holm, Alva, Helm, Wächter; Böhm. Wien, 1976
$8.95
Description:
Even among a cast brimming with star power, it’s Edda Moser who steals the spotlight. As Fiordiligi, she delivers a performance of remarkable fire and finesse, negotiating the coloratura with ease and infusing her interpretation with a dramatic urgency more typical of heavier roles. The result is one of the most compelling portrayals of the character in memory. Brigitte Fassbaender proves an ideal vocal partner, matching Moser in both richness of tone and dramatic presence. Eberhard Wächter, always a model of style, brings a suave elegance to Don Alfonso. And although he was well into his ninth decade, Karl Böhm draws vibrant, youthful playing from the Vienna Philharmonic, keeping the entire performance energized and taut.
