What Classical Music Are You Listening To?

[Marzz]

Boulez - Sonatas 1&3 (Charles Rosen)

 

[Chuck Nessa]

This, and I see they have corrected the spelling error on the cover - This Japanese reissue said "SYMPHNY NO.2" where the blank spot is. Fine disc and good to hear some of the "extras" from the original lp box.

Weill, Seven Deadly Sins, Kurt Masur, NY Phil, Angeline Roux (Teldec)

Work needs to be sung (as written) by a soprano (as it is here) and not an octave lower, as it eventually was by Lenya, Gisella May, and others.

I will live with the Lenya.

[Larry Kart]

My mistake. In Lenya's powerful 1956 recording, and those (by Gisella May, Uta Lemper, et al.) that came in its wake , Anna's music was not sung down an octave but a fourth. Lenya was still a soprano in 1933 when the work was premiered, but sadly she did not record it back then. The sound of Lenya the soprano was something else.

[medjuck]

Many years ago I saw the Pina Bausch group perform 7 Deadly Sins.  No idea who was singing or in what range  but it was good.

The Lenya recording grabs me by my shorts! ;-0
