I think Karl Böhm's live performances of Strauss operas represent some of his best work; this is a companion piece to his live Daphne which has yet to be bettered despite being another elderly, live recording, albeit in narrow stereo. It is in comparatively restricted mono but one soon forgets that, given the quality of the performance.
Indeed, the cast is extraordinary, headed by Lisa Della Casa's beautiful Ariadne. She is in the Janowitz mould: delicate, silvery, yet powerful when required. Irmgard Seefried is impassioned and touching as the Composer, Hilde Güden is pert and wonderfully fluid in Zerbinetta's coloratura, and Paul Schöffler suitably avuncular and rich-voiced as the Music Master. Once you have heard Ben Heppner as Bacchus in Sinopoli's modern set you are spoilt for any other tenor, but Rudolf Schock is more flexible and rounded of tone than he was for Karajan in the studio recording of the same year and makes a very acceptable job of a difficult part with a killer tessitura; he is certainly the equal of James King for Kempe.
The trio of nymphs is of exceptional vocal quality; famous names here later graduated to bigger roles, including Rita Streich who sang Zerbinetta for Karajan later the same year. Ensemble is pretty good for a live opera; not too many slips and much lovely playing from the Vienna Philharmonic., despite some flubs in the brass. Böhm has a very attractive way of keeping up pace and tension without bombast or undue haste and he certainly has the measure of this chamber opera.–Ralph Moore
