The "Immortal Beloved" title of this album is a pure marketing conceit; the music has nothing to do with Beethoven's classic unsent love letter (the recipient still unknown) of 1812. It's something of a shame, for the work of soprano Chen Reiss here needs no hype. Reiss, who has sung with the Bavarian State Opera and the Vienna State Opera, has a powerful Richard Strauss-type voice with an attractive middle register and a slicing top. She's a bit strong for the early Beethoven arias that make up the first part of the program, and she misses the humor in Soll ein Schuh nicht drücken, an insertion aria on the topic of new shoes for an opera by Ignaz Umlauf, but Reiss gets stronger as she goes along, and her reading of Beethoven's most famous concert aria, Ah! perfido, Op. 65, is commanding. A major attraction throughout is the presence of some really unusual works, from an aria from the 20-year-old Beethoven's Cantata on the Accession of Emperor Leopold II, WoO 88, to some ardently romantic pieces from about the same time, to two striking and almost-never-heard arias from Beethoven's incidental music to Egmont, Op. 84. Reiss will make listeners wonder how these pieces got neglected. The Academy of Ancient Music under Richard Egarr provides unobtrusive support for Reiss and avoids early music mannerisms. There's another factor present: Reiss seems to identify with the female characters depicted in these arias and explains her motivations in an elegant note. Her singing seems to fit much of the material in an indefinable way. This release should find a place on many Beethoven shelves.
