MARBECKS COLLECTABLE: The Incomparable Heddle Nash (Incls 'La Boheme' Act 4)
Heddle Nash (tenor), with John Brownlee, Robert Alva, Dora Labbette, and others
[ Dutton / CD ]
Release Date: Monday 25 February 2013
Dutton Laboratories released this CD devoted to the tenor in time to mark his centenary in 1994. Nash and conductor, Thomas Beecham co-operated in this recording of Act 4 of La boheme, made in 1935 with Lisa Perli (alias Dora Labbette) as Mimi, at the time of performances at Covent Garden that year. Nash, then at the height of his powers, sings a spontaneous, quite Italianate Rodolfo and Perli makes a simple, heartfelt Mimi. The rest of the cast falls far short of the principals, but Beecham is at his most alert, and sensitive too. The transfers (including the solo items) are superior to any previous issues, bringing the voices into one's room without let or hindrance. (Gramophone)
