Wolfgang Windgassen sings Siegfried. It is his first appearance in the role and he is heard to better advantage in other recordings. The thing that makes him special in this recording is his youthfulness . WAGNER - Siegfried WWV 86C. Siegfried - Wolfgang Windgassen Mime - Paul Kuen Brünnhilde - Astrid Varnay Wanderer - Hans Hotter Alberich - Gustav Neidlinger Fafner - Josef Greindl Erda - Maria von Ilosvay Waldvogel - Rita Streich. Choir and Orchestra of the Bayreuth Festival conductor Clemens Krauss. Live concert recording, Bayreuth Festival, 10th August 1953.

Paul Kuën, Gustav Neidlinger and Rita Streich (gel) are the highlights. Act III features a great Hotter in the role of Wanderer and a superb, incredible Martha Mödl playing Brünnhilde. The waking scene is the eleventh wonder. The best news are the Nibelungs Kuën and Neidlinger and an enrapturing Erda (Maria von Ilosvay). The protagonists are Bernd Aldenhoff and Astrid Varnay. In Act I, Aldenhoff proves to be as worthy as Windgassen and can sing the forging song flawlessly. In Act II he struggles a bit and I have to remember his great rival. And in this recording, Varnay improves all her 2nd Brünnhildes with control on her volume and notes, softer without being bassier. The good sound is also important for this first position but not significantly over many recordings in this top. Reply With Quote.

The casting is mostly terrific with the youthful Wolfgang Windgassen in the title role, the masterful Hans Hotter as Wotan, the cunning Paul Kuen as Mime, the deceitful Gustav Neidlinger as Alberich, the creepy but not especially convincing Maria von Ilosvay as Erde, and the unsurpassed Astrid Varnay as the most passionate Brünnhilde yet recorded. The conducting is mostly acceptable but rarely more than that

After Cosima's retirement in 1906, Siegfried Wagner took over management of the festival, introducing new staging and performance styles. His early death in 1930 left the Festival in the hands of his English-born wife Winifred Wagner, with Heinz Tietjen as artistic director.

Neidlinger and Ilosvay are once again ideal in their roles and Rita Streich makes an attractive Woodbird, trilling neatly and charmingly. Joseph Greindl underpins the whole cycle with his assumption of three bass roles of Fafner, Hunding and Hagen; he is sometimes a little clumsy and even rocky, but what a big, black, menacing noise he makes – ideal for portraying all three brutes. It’s a pity that in his final death-scene he is placed so far back from the microphone.
