Toscanini Meistersinger Quintet Live 1937
Die sielige Morgentraum, Deutweise
One of Toscanini's last performances at Salzburg. Maria Reining, Hans Hermann Nissen, Kirsten Thorborg, Richard Sallaba, Henk Noort.
Rare, legendary performance. Apologies that the visual part isn't very good.
The 1937 Meistersinger is the stuff of legend. It's been told that the dress rehearsal went without a break, and when the curtain was raised afterward everyone on stage was in tears.

l'un des sommets absolus des enregistrements wagnériens: dommage que nous n'avons le Parsifal de Toscanini.

Thank you friend for this wonderful performance. Another gem.
I was looking for more of soprano Maria Reining and found this with Toscanini. She sings like an angel and Toscanini conducts this so poetically. He builds the phrases like a great architect and the balance of the voices for a 1937 Live performance is magnificent.
