4.0 out of 5 stars How to sound under age meeting advanced challenges., Oct 3 2003
By John Austin "austinjr@bigpond.net.au" (Kangaroo Ground, Australia) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Admirers of this German soprano, whose life spanned almost the entire C20, are well served in the CD market. Naxos has added this selection of her recordings to their "Great Singers" series, providing much that is best known of her operatic work as well as several rarities. Although you will not find the best ever version of any of the operatic arias heard here, you will hear accomplished vocalizing from a singer renowned for her accuracy of pitch and control of tone. Track 1 is a justly famous recording, the first, I believe, to present the aria Martern aller Arten in its entirety. Erna Berger presents a Constanze who contrives to repel the threat of torture by showing that she can participate for nine minutes in elaborate coloratura with four solo instruments and full orchestra without betraying any fear. This, and several of the other recordings made in London, benefit greatly from having orchestral accompaniments in charge of conductor Josef Krips.

Ward Marston's remastering seems to have involved more noise reduction processing than any of the other Erna Berger CDs with which I have compared it. The statement "All tracks are sung in German" on the cover is not correct, but it helps explain that these recordings were made at a time when opera was sung in the language of the country where the singer worked.
