Awards and reviews

January 2010

The glorious voice of the soprano Kristiane Kaiser in the title-role is matched by the powerful tenor of Klaus Florian Vogt as Goethe. The secondary leads are equally convincing. Sylvia Schwartz's bright soprano offers a happy contrast to Kaiser's Friederike with Daniel Behle as Lenz bringing a darker tenor timbre that sets him off against Vogt's Goethe. The Munich Radio Orchestra revels in the pastoral colourings of Lehár's music, inspired by the Alsace-Lorraine setting, with the flute and horns deserving a special mention. It's a strong... idiomatic reading from Schirmer who never fails to convey his love for Lehár's elegant and infectious score.
