The Korean conductor Eun Sun Kim has taken on operas of various types since coming on the scene in Spain in the early 2010s as a protegee of Jesús López Cobos, showing impressive versatility. It would have been tough to predict that anything in her background would have given her an instinctive way with Der Graf von Luxemburg, Franz Léhar's airy operetta about a couple who fall in love, unaware that they have already entered into a marriage of convenience. Yet, more than any of the individual members of the cast, she is the star of this live performance, recorded at the Frankfurt Opera in 2015 and issued by the Oehms label two years later. The stars are opera singers rather than specialists in operetta, but they hold the level down to the right scope. Tenor Daniel Behle is solid as the titular count, but it is Camilla Nylund as Angèle, the Parisian singer whose life so fascinated the Viennese, who brings down the house. Sample her big delayed entrance, "Heut' noch werd' ich Ehefrau, doch wer wird mein Mann?" But throughout, no matter who is singing, it is Kim who gives the music the liveliness and sparkle that is essential to operetta. It's a fine performance, made better by the clear live sound achieved by the Oehms engineering team. The lack of any libretto, something not readily available online even in German, will be a serious impediment for many listeners.
