Wagner: Das Rheingold - Adam, G, Hofmann, P. Hoffman, Bode, Kélémen, Ridderbusch; Stein. Wien, 1976
$9.95
Description:
By 1976, Theo Adam had owned the role of Wotan for well over a decade. That experience is manifested in his total commitment to the text. Perhaps the most interesting feature of this performance is Peter Hofmann's Loge. Unburdened by the vocal demands of Wagner's heavier tenor parts, Hofmann has a chance to display the lovely lyrical nature of his tenor. It’s a shame he wasn’t able to carry that youthful sheen into the 1980s when his career began to really take off.
