A masterpiece recorded in 1960 by a fulfilling cast has been revived. Among Conwitschny's opera recordings, which do not have many stereo recordings, this "Tannhäuser" from the former EMI label, which has been highly evaluated alongside "The Flying Dutchman" of the same period, is simply reminiscent of the good old days of Germany. It is a result that can be said to be an eternal masterpiece that does not stop at. The master tape at that time has maintained a good condition to the present day, and I am surprised at the clear sound quality as if it were the latest recording. This is a great album, both played and recorded.
The recording of Franz Konwitschny (1901-62) will be reprinted in 2020 with many stereo sound sources from the Berlin Classics master, and the rare musicality and qualities that have been buried in the past can be grasped in detail by improving the sound quality. became. The fact that his detailed conducting, which was left on the master tape, has been revived in modern times is largely due to the improvement in sound quality. Since the recording period was until the early days of stereo, there are not many sound sources, but all the remaining boards are gems. Even among the few opera recordings, this "Tannhäuser" is as highly rated as "The Flying Dutchman" of the same period. And I'm surprised by the fresh sound quality that I can't believe it was recorded more than 60 years ago, including the singing in this reprint. If you do a blind test, you may think that it is the latest recording. Previous CDs had a hazy resolution, so the true value was not fully conveyed. Again, this is greatly influenced by the state of the master tape.
