    Der Wildschütz - Albert Lortzing

    Album Description

    Immerse yourself in the timeless charm of Albert Lortzing's "Der Wildschütz," a beloved opera that has captivated audiences since its premiere in 1842. This 1964 recording, released on Warner Classics, offers a comprehensive and enchanting journey through Lortzing's masterful composition, performed by the esteemed Vienna State Opera Orchestra and Chorus under the skilled direction of conductor Heinz Wallberg.

    "Der Wildschütz" is a delightful comic opera, freely adapted from a comedy by August von Kotzebue, and it showcases Lortzing's genius for blending humor, wit, and memorable melodies. The opera's lively score and engaging characters have made it a staple in German theaters for nearly two centuries.

    This album features a stellar cast, including Georg Völker as Graf, Hilde Rössel-Majdan as Gräfin, Waldemar Kmentt as Baron, and Irmgard Seefried as Baronin, among others. Their performances bring depth and vitality to the characters, making the opera's humor and drama come alive.

    The recording spans over two hours and twenty-three minutes, capturing the full richness of Lortzing's score. From the opening overture to the final ensemble, each track is a testament to the opera's enduring appeal. Highlights include the humorous "A, B, C, D, der Junggesellenstand tut weh" and the stirring "Auf des Lebens raschen Wogen," showcasing the opera's range from lighthearted comedy to poignant reflection.

    "Der Wildschütz" is not just an opera; it's a celebration of Lortzing's unique talent for creating music that is both entertaining and deeply satisfying. Whether you're a seasoned opera enthusiast or new to the genre, this recording offers a delightful introduction to the world of Albert Lortzing and his timeless masterpiece.
