Free Music Review: This bat can fly!
Hit: 5 Stars

This is a collection of highlights, not the entire operetta. The first five reviews I've read had mixed reactions, but all seemed pleased with this performance.

I found Edita Gruberova's Adele superlative. Just to hear her sing "Spiel' ich die Unschuld vom Lande," is worth the price of the CD. In the "Laughing Song" (Mein Herr Marquis), she smoothly, yet precisely, sings each note, unlike so many sopranos who seem to bark the laughs. Only Janet Perry approaches Gruberova in the quality of singing in this role.

For me, Kiri Te Kanawa practically owns the role of Rosalinde. Few can equal her in any of the arias. You'll believe she's really Hungarian.

Overall, I think you'll find this a beautifully-performed, spirited Fledermaus, where all the performers seem to be having a very good time.

J. Strauss - Die Fledermaus / Te Kanawa, Gruberova, Fassbaender, B?r, Wiener Philharmoniker, Previn Poster

There may be more cornily entertaining readings of this perennial favorite on CD, but none that is sung more wonderfully. Star turns abound within fine ensemble performances: Kiri Te Kanawa is as involved as one has ever heard her, singing with beautiful, womanly tone and great wit, while Richard Leech's Alfred is both funny and handsomely sung. Brigitte Fassbaender's Orlovsky is truly ambiguous-aristocratic, Edita Gruberova is a high-spirited Adele, and Wolfgang Brendel's Eisenstein is secure and well-drawn. Andr? Previn leads the Vienna State Opera forces with respect for their tradition, and they respond by playing and singing gloriously. Precisely what made the producers decide that the Act?II party should be filled with extraneous "party" noises (mumblings, laughter, glasses clinking) is baffling, but it's overlookable. This one's tasty--enjoy! --Robert Levine
