Ugh. After the high note (literally) that was yesterday’s CD, this is quite a let down. When I told my wife how I felt about this morning’s music, she said she noticed something about my Mozart blog. She said that I either love or hate the vocal performances. For example, yesterday I raved to the […]

Of Gray Tuesdays and Great Tenors (Litanies; Vespers; Oratorios, Box 11)
April 6th, 2010 · No Comments · Box 11: Mozart: Litanies; Vespers; Oratorios; Cantatas; Masonic Music, Gabriele Fuchs, Hanna Schwarz, Ileana Cotrubas, K118 Part II, La Betulia liberata, Margarita Zimmermann, Mozart at 15, Mozarteum-Orchester Salzburg, Panera Bread, Peter Schreier, Salzburg (Summer 1771), Salzburger Kammerchor, Walter Berry

It’s a full-blown Italian opera, complete with characters and drama and lots of rolling Rs, written by Mozart when he was 15. Once again, I was impressed with tenor Peter Schreier. His voice is […]

This is a full-blown Italian opera, complete with characters and drama and lots of rolling Rs, written by Mozart when he was 15. What made it for me is tenor Peter Schreier. His voice is fantastic. Incredible power and range. I was mesmerized by track 3: Parte Prima – No.1 Aria “D’ogni colpa la colpa […]
