On sale -40%We have Marek Janowski to thank for this studio version of Weber's masterpiece, recorded in 1994 in Berlin, and painstakingly remastered by RCA in 2017. Here the German conductor returns to a work which he knows in minute detail. Marking a bridge from the tradition of the "singspiel" in the style of the Magic Flute and the young Wagner of the Flying Dutchman, Freischütz represents the starting point for German romantic opera.
This piece was recorded in the Sendesaal of Radio Hesse in Frankfurt in 2018, a large room built from light wood, with excellent acoustics and completely reconstructed in 1987. This new version, probably produced in the wake of two concert versions, includes short narrations written by Katharina Wagner and Daniel Weber to replace the long original dialogues.
The excellent distribution is dominated by two great Wagnerian singers with powerful voices: Lise Davidsen and Andreas Schager. Janowski blazes at the stand, lending the work a constant and theatrical tension, with energetic tempos and a sense of poetry that will stand the test of time. This is a very accomplished new version which easily ranks alongside the legendary recordings of Wilhelm Furtwängler (1954), Josef Keilberth (1958), Eugen Jochum (1960) and Carlos Kleiber (1973). © François Hudry/Qobuz
