Beethoven: Fidelio - Borkh, Beirer, Greindl, Neidlinger, Tappy; Ansermet. Geneva, 1964

$9.95



Description:

Hans Beirer sings "Gott! Welch dunkel hier!" with unflinching confidence, while Josef Greindl brings unexpected warmth to Rocco, softening the imposing quality of his dark bass. The one real disappointment is Elisabeth Schwarzenberg as Marzelline—her voice is uneven and does not match the level of her colleagues.
