A rousing, trimmed-down Heldenleben, from an underrated Runnicles
11 Feb 2006
Format:Audio CD
The veteran Scottish conductor Donald Runnicles has hidden hs light in the opera pit for many years, but he can be a superb orchestral conductor, as witness this exciting Ein Heldenleben, now at mid-price. Strauss was himself a no-nonsense conductor of his works, and by trimming about 5 min. from the standard timing of Heldenleben, Runnicles harks back to Strauss's original conception. The fast pace is exhilirating, but Runnicles knows how to be expressive in the slower sections. Five stars, including for the NDR ocrchestra, which plays like a big-league ensemble.
Alessandra Marc has a huge, glorious Strauss voice that is more even in tone than Deborah Voigt's, though it isn't as thrilling on top. She's a bit phlegmatic in temperament a la Caballe, but here in Salome's final scene, with such excellent close-up sonics and Runnicles' knowing accompaniment, the result is a pleasure to hear. Four stars, a star shy of the best versions because Marc misses the depraved eroticism of the character..

Superb Salome
24 July 2004
Format:Audio CD
I bought this CD simply for Ms Marc's Salome Scene. I feel she does a superb job. Her voice is glorious and well-suited to this repertoire. She can lighten it when she needs to, giving a fresh, girlish sound to the Judean Princess, but when needed, she can open up to a full throttle that is absolutely thrilling. I admit I barely listen to the Heldenleben, owning other deffinitive readings already, but I return to this disc - picked up at quite a nice price - for a delisciously indulgent dose of hedonism.

The great alessandra marc dissapoints this time!!!
4 Aug 2003
Format:Audio CD
I purchased this cd thinking that the performance of the closing scene of salome by allessandra marc was going to be a hedonist delight.I was in for a shock.Allessandra let me down.If she was in bad voice why didn't she just wait till another day to record it.Why does she alloe the releas of such a poor performance.Her tone sounded damaged,the breath and support out of place.The interpretation lazy.She needs to get a little more old shcool and better phrase.I think she needs a workout trainer for the boby to,would likey help her singing immensely.As for the conducting,I wish we could bring conductors like fritz reiner back from the grave atleast he gave this kind of music fire and electricity,and a classical rennaisance sense of style and ethereal beauty!!!!I listened to this entire recording and found it mediorce and dull!!!Love you anyway alessandra. blessed be
