Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg

Karl Ridderbusch, in the role of Hans Sachs, delivers a performance marked by warmth and tireless elegance. René Kollo's bright and brash tenor proves well-suited to the character of Walther, effectively conveying both vigor and intensity. In the roles of the Pogners, Hannelore Bode is exquisite as Eva, while Hans Sotin embodies elegance in his portrayal of Veit Pogner. Silvio Varviso, conducting, adopts a lighter touch, emphasizing the humor embedded within Wagner's score, thus enhancing the character-driven aspects of the music.

Meistersinger-Varviso-Bayreuth-73

La fecha es -25-Julio, 1ª función de 7, estreno de esta producción de Wofgang Wagner , según archivo del Festival.También lo dice en "Wagnerdisco.net", que no se como sonará esta grabación.Si es un poco molesto, pero casi no se nota, de todas formas, ya aparecerá alguna grabación mejor.No puedo comprobar la de "Wagnerdisco.net", porque vendía por PayPal, y cambió el sistema de venta a no se que de tarjeta Master o algo parecido y ya no pude comprarle mas, al ser mas complicado.

Excellent performance spoiled by cue jumps

Excellent cast led by the warm and wonderful Karl Ridderbush and conducted by Silvio Varviso whose grasp and control of the score is masterful. To have Bernd Weikl as the Nightwatchman is a superb bonus.The performance, which is in very good sound, is unfortunately completely spoiled for me by the constant cue jumps/blips throughout. It is a great pity that whoever uploaded this did not remove the cues - a very simple process. Not really sure what cues are doing in this performance anyway, which is presumably taken from a radio broadcast, as it was not issued commercially unlike the 1974 performances.Finally, the date is wrong. Meistersinger was not performed on 6 August 1973. This is probably a recording of the 4 or 8 August performance - but probably the 4th which was a Saturday. This could easily have been checked against the Bayreuth Festival archive.In conclusion, a fine performance spoiled by irritating cue jumps.
