Female on the beach
[…] of us who don’t speak German but are good guessers. Andrea Uhmann provides the mostly monochromatic costumes that make up for in good taste what they lack in creativity. I was pleasantly surprised to see the venerable René Kollo, no stranger to the Island of Naxos himself and dapper in his grey morning coat, as the Major Domo. He knows how to do imperious. He also plays well off of the Music Master of Eike Wilm Schulte who’s exactly the kind of seasoned pro you want in that part. The commedia dell’arte players have some good staging moments but nothing inspiring and the Harlequin of Nikolay Borchev reveals a virile, if unsettled, bantam-weight baritone that perhaps hasn’t found its core sound yet. He handles his little solo in the opera well but didn’t erase any memories I had of more polished interpreters. The rest of the bunch are just Laurel […]

Wagner: "Das Rheingold" & "Die Walküre" - von Dohnányi's unfinished Ring in Cleveland
[…] to Kim Begley's subtle Loge and to Alessandra Marc's creamy soprano as Sieglinde. The role of Fricka is shared by two great wagnerian veterans: Hanna Schwarz's beautiful contralto shines in Das Rheingold, whereas Anja Silja (von Dohnányi's wife) suitably takes on the higher, raging dramatics of the goddess in Die Walküre. Needless to say, the recording is simply superb.
