Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov: Sadko

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Sadko is a shimmering fairy tale of an opera, featuring Rimsky-Korsakov's gift for tone-painting and orchestral coloring at its most splendidly developed, with many lovely tunes to beguile the ear. This live recording suffers at times from thumpings occasioned by the staging, and from a few rough patches in the choral work, but it gains from the Kirov's legendary ensemble work. The huge and able cast is headed by Vladimir Galusin's heldentenorish Sadko, a troubadour who becomes the richest man in Novgorod; and by soprano Valentina Tsidipova's beguiling Volkhova, the Sea-King's daughter. This is opera as storytelling and escape, and very pleasant storytelling it is. --Sarah Bryan Miller

"One of the most beautiful voices I know." - Rudolf Bing........2001-07-24

Of the many notable German tenors of the C20th, Peter Anders (1908-1954) had arguably the most naturally beautiful voice. Described as "the finest lyric tenor in the German tongue" by one authority, he was also described by Rudolf Bing, general manager of the New York Met, as the owner of "one of the most beautiful voices I know". Listen to his singing of "Im Mohrenland" from Mozart's "Die Entführung". Hear how German can sound even more beautiful in the throat of an exceptional singer than Italian does.

Anders' special timbre and clear enunciation were much admired by the young Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau. The latter singer wrote in his autobiography of the occasion in the early 1950s when he received a congratulatory telephone call from Peter Anders, and instantly recognised the voice that was speaking to him. Sadly, it was soon after this that Peter Anders was killed in a car crash, speeding to meet the requirements of a busy music performing schedule.

This CD represents the best memento of Peter Anders currently on the market. The tracks date from the years when his voice was fluent, fresh, forward and most mellifluous. Some of the troubled, strained singing of his later years often produced aural discomfort, but everything here will delight you.
