Leonard Bernstein, who will celebrate 30 years after his death on October 14, 2020, made the world's first SA-CD recording of the first DG. Starting with recording Met and "Carmen" on the DG label in 1972, he left behind many masterpieces until just before his death. At that time, the New York Philharmonic music director retired, but there were still many contracts with CBS, and he was in the process of increasing recordings on DG as he entered Europe. After "Carmen", he left his own "Divak" suite in 1975, Boston Symphony and Liszt's "Faust Symphony" the following year, and soon a concert live for the Bavarian Philharmonic and Amnesty. It was this Boyt who recorded Stravinsky's "Marriage" and others in London in March, and made the first recordings on the Vienna Philharmonic and DG the following month (the Vienna Philharmonic is two DECCA and CBS). Not the first recording because of the "Knight of the Roses" with. Due to the short recording time of this monumental recording, the LP was released in coupling with the aforementioned "Faust Symphony" (it seems that it was intended to be connected to "Faust"), but it is quite difficult in the CD era. It was not made into a CD, and was treated as a reprint as a bonus board in the domestic version. In the month following Boito's recording, the works of the French National Tube and R. Strauss were taken up in Paris with Boito as a soloist, and this was also recorded for the first time with DG. There are many recordings during this period, and it is characterized by a wide variety of recording labels such as CBS, EMI, and DG.
Bernstein's R. Strauss recordings aren't that many, but it's pretty rare to have recorded the finale of "Salome," which probably hasn't conducted all the songs. According to Mr. Yamazaki's description in this commentary, at this time, the recording was done in parallel with the "charity concert for cancer research", and the concert was only R. Strauss. That thing. Cavalier left a recording of all "Salome" songs on RCA in 1968, and here again he has set up his own larger-scale image of Salome. Bernstein also has a relaxed and unique tempo in "Dance of the Seven Veils", and it is interesting that the performance has an inner enthusiasm.
Boito is also excellent in recording, and is also famous as a recording of the whole body by DG at the time when analog recording was mature. The dynamic range is amazingly wide, and it captures the explosive roar. Although the method of recording only this "monologue" was also in Toscanini in his later years, it is unclear what Bernstein chose for the first DG recording with the Vienna Philharmonic. Bernstein, who was not always active in the field of opera, may have had the purpose of wanting to make a mark in opera, as there are precedents for "Der Rosenkavalier" and "Falstaff" in Vienna.
