Description

|
Klemperer conducted this version of The Abduction From the Seraglio live from the Hungarian State Opera in March, 1950. In good sound, it is sung in Hungarian, with the dialogue omitted. "We get a breakneck 'Martern aller arten', sung by the light coloratura Maria Gyurkovics (she was a Lucia and Queen of the Night as well), who performs Konstanze with great dash and surprising accuracy throughout the performance. Her Belmonte is the reasonably well-known Endre Rosler, a lyric tenor of great security, firm tone, and good coloratura, and they sing wonderfully together…. The Osmin of Mihaly Szekely is a gem, from top to bottom, and he sings with wonderful 'face' and a true comic-villain sense…. The Symphony No. 39, beautifully performed without repeats, is similarly speedy but with a slow movement that is lovely and elegiac."—Classics Today
