Mein Traum
RecommendedSchubert, Weber, Schumann
Stéphane Degout (baritone), Pygmalion, Raphaël Pichon
Degout is convincing throughout, his expressive range spanning both ferocity and vulnerability...The real stars, though, are the period orchestra Pygmalion. The instrumental colours glow and... — More…

Weber: Der Freischütz
RecommendedLise Davidsen (Agathe), Andreas Schager (Max), Sofia Fomina (Ännchen), Alan Held (Kaspar), Markus Eiche (Ottokar), Franz-Josef Selig (Eremit)
Frankfurt Radio Symphony, MDR Leipzig Radio Choir, Marek Janowski

Freiburger Barockorchester, Zürcher Sing-Akademie, René Jacobs
If it all convinces that’s because Jacobs has an absolute instinct for Weber’s score. The horns of the Freiburger Barockorchester are almost a character in their own right in this Romantic opera... — More…

Chor und Extrachor des Stadttheater Giessen & Philharmonisches Orchester Giessen, Michael Hofstetter
Dorothea Maria Marx is an appealing Rezia...her soprano is light and clear, and her fairly tight vibrato adds to the impression of a young innocent girl. Hüon is a demanding role that cries out... — More…
