Orff: Carmina Burana
Christiane Oelze, David Kuebler, Simon Keenlyside / Chor und Orchester der Deutschen Oper Berlin / Christian Thielemann
[ Deutsche Grammophon Virtuoso / CD ]
Release Date: Thursday 27 October 2011
"The choral singing is superb, warm and dramatic, reflecting the work of singers from the opera house, and the Knabenchor Berlin in the penultimate movement of the 'Court of Love' section adds an aptly earthy tang, well caught by the recording"
(Gramophone)
"The choral singing is superb, warm and dramatic, reflecting the work of singers from the opera house, and the Knabenchor Berlin in the penultimate movement of the 'Court of Love' section adds an aptly earthy tang, well caught by the recording. The soloists too.. are as near ideal as could be. David Kuebler is totally unfazed by the high tessitura of so much of the tenor writing: not just clean and precise and characterizing superbly in the 'roast swan' sequence, but singing most beautifully in his equally taxing solo in the 'Court of Love' section ('Dies, nox et omnia')." (Gramophone)
