  • I think Elisabeth Grummer had one of the most stunning voices ever! There is something very vulnerable in her timbre. It is sweet yet solid. She makes you fall in love with her in any language!

  • Great minds think alike :)) And I see your screen name is dermotafan - and I am a fan of his, too - what an elegant singer!

  • I heard MDM in the opera house sing the role in 1959 in Italy at La Scala and it was the best one I ever heard in house and have heard a few since him like Domingo and Heppner but I wish Shock had sung it in Italian. The Martinelli Performances before 1942 also where outstanding but I was too young to have heard him, it of course is better in the original Italian.

  • Einfach unendlich intim und tief erschütternd.

    Eimalig. Sogar in deutscher Sprache. Danke! :-)

  • @Apfelsino divine is all I can say!

  • If you think Grummer with her squeezed Kopftöne and graded "instrumental" dynamics is not mannered, then I guess you like her toothy tremolo, too.

  • And I might add magnificently.

  • It doesn,t sound wagnerian, it's just sung in German with two German singers.

  • I share your feelings cantorandopera. I just cant'have eniugh of her voice.

  • Grummer fans should give a listen to her complete Elizabeth in Tannhauser with Hopf, Scheck, Fisher-Dieskau, Frick....with Franz Konwitchny conducting masterfully. She projects the meaning of the words in the entreatry to the knights in act II and the prayer in act III better than anyone else.

    The person who thinks it sounds too Wagnerian is not used to hearing Italian opera performed with attention payed to rhythms, dynamics...etc with no scooping or mannered histrionics.

  • The best German tenor in this opera is Hans Hopf...and for me one of the best tenors ever...only Vinay,Merli,Del Monaco can be close to him...but Shock is great too...great artist...Bravo...but please.. remember Hopf...
