pinza and walter: what a marriage

René Jacobs and the early music experts benefit from scholarship concerning cadenzas and instrumentation. Virtually ALL of the other recordings have infinitely better sound. Nonetheless, this is the definitive recording of “Le Nozze di Figaro.”

Why? Walter auditioned and hand picked all of his soloists. Can you imagine Pavarotti agreeing to do an audition? Everyone is either Italian or speaks impeccable Italian. The recitatives are at speech rhythm and constitute vital and exciting theater, rather than a dreary attempt by vain singers to show how beautiful their voices are in the wrong context. The overall architecture is brilliant. Walter builds the opera like a perfectly proportioned chateau. Finally, there is the presence of Ezio Pinza, a remarkable singing actor with a gorgeous voice and the required charm for this role.

The sad news is that 70 years after this recording, noone has equaled it. The good news is that recent Mozart performances by Claudio Abbado and Daniel Harding have brought back Walter’s thrilling recits and vibrant tempos.
