Composer Franz Lehár was born on 30 April 1870. Best known for his operettas, Lehár is a complete known to me. I realise that I have not heard the Merry Widow all the way through, though I have heard the overture! So hit me up. What are your favourite Merry Widow recordings?
Conductor Robert Shaw was born on 30 April 1916. Shaw’s reputation rested largely on his superb work as a choral conductor, notably with the Robert Shaw Chorale and the Atlanta Symphony Chorus. He made several excellent recordings on Telarc. Which are your favourites?
#NowSpinning Vaughan Williams’s First String Quartet, with the Britten Quartet. What an utterly wonderful work this is. I haven’t heard it for at least 5 years. Amazing.
#NowSpinning Jansons and the BRSO with Bruckner’s Eighth Symphony. Such a magnificent orchestra, on top form again. But what about the conducting?
Happy Birthday to conductor Zubin Mehta, who was born on 29 April 1936. He is a musician of great warmth and energy and his recorded legacy consistently demonstrates these qualities. What are your favourite Zubin Mehta recordings?
#NowSpinning Gawd, this Adagio never ceases to amaze. Such concentration of emotional power is rare. A breathtaking performance that makes time seem like it’s standing still.
Sibelius’ Kullervo was premiered on 28 April 1892. It is astonishing to think the soundworld Sibelius created with this work effectively came from nowhere. With it Sibelius defined a new idea of what Finnish music might be. What are your favourite recordings of Kullervo?
If you see this post a trio.

@LoveInner Not usually known for his operetta, there’s a good recording by John-Eliot G with Cheryl Studer. Whatever happened to her, incidentally? She was everywhere at one time!
This is a pretty nice Walton @LoveInner @NewLeibniz @RMRoss_ @trickysurname ...
@LoveInner Don't forget Lehar's Giuditta. Great songs, including one used by Rainer Werner Fassbinder at the start of each episode of his epic TV series "Berlin Alexanderplatz".
@AnnSalo @LeeRaymondtom @LoveInner @JoLynnF @Misterquartet @timcwebb That must have been mesmerizing! More details please!

@LoveInner A few elements about "Die lustige Witwe" are here : toutloperaoupresque655890715.com/2020/12/24/la-… 😀🎼🍾
My favourite Merry Widow recordings are Schwarzkopf and especially Cheryl Studer…balm for the soul…🎶🌹🌹
Composer Franz Lehár was born on 30 April 1870. Best known for his operettas, Lehár is a complete known to me. I realise that I have not heard the Merry Widow all the way through, though I have heard the overture! So hit me up. What are your favourite Merry Widow recordings?
@Pupdino @LoveInner Costa is just fabulous. She is a really good actress too. Jeremy Brett can actually sing (not dubbed) and they have great chemistry. The rest of the cast is extremely good too. Highly recommend. I was genuinely laughing too. It is a little gem.
@LoveInner That is one of Karajan's best recordings. But Karajan worships his magnificent string sound so much that he leaves the trumpet too much in the background at the end, compared to many other recordings. It dampens the impression slightly.
@LoveInner I’ve had a tremendous ear worm since seeing this tweet: youtu.be/0aC9qPFhB4Q?si…
@LoveInner Can I switch operettas? Thanks. There was little or no classical music in my home as a child, but my mother had one record of Franz Lehar and played this delightful melody very often. youtube.com/watch?v=OZdDzf…
