Compilation: Ludmila Dvorakova - Arias from Fidelio, Katerina Ismailova, Lohengrin, Tannhäuser, Tristan and Götterdämmerung
$5.95
Description:
Ludmila Dvořáková’s voice defied easy classification. Her Slavic soprano possessed the warmth and depth of a mezzo, yet she navigated Wagner’s most treacherous soprano writing with remarkable agility and assurance. What made her truly exceptional was the unique blend of vocal richness and lyrical beauty she brought to roles that often demand brute force. Her Brünnhilde was both commanding and deeply feminine—a rare and compelling combination.
It is unfortunate that her career unfolded during the era of Birgit Nilsson, whose dominance in the Wagnerian repertoire often overshadowed other remarkable talents. Still, Dvořáková’s contributions deserve renewed attention, and this compilation offers just that. Included are rare excerpts from Fidelio, Katerina Ismailova, Lohengrin, Tannhäuser, Tristan und Isolde, and Götterdämmerung, showcasing her versatility and vocal artistry across a range of demanding repertoire.
