Schoenberg: Gurre-Lieder
Janowitz, Ludwig, Sergi, Dickie; Krips
Wien, 1969
$9.95
Description:
Coming to Schoenberg through works like Erwartung and Moses und Aron, it's always a shock to revisit Gurre-Lieder and hear just how far removed it is from his later style. This sprawling work blends echoes of Wagner and hints of Strauss with Arnold Schoenberg's own distinct voice, producing a sonic world that feels at once familiar and strikingly original. Gundula Janowitz is divine as Tove, her voice glistening with purity, and Christa Ludwig leaves a lasting impression in her brief but crucial appearance. The sound is excellent, capturing both the intimacy and scale of this epic piece.
