'A strange profession' - looking forward to John Bridcut's film, 'Bernard Haitink, the Enigmatic Maestro'
[…] von Nürnberg (Royal Opera House, 1997) where the Prelude to Act 3 is taken unusually slowly, but the angst in it is conveyed in the tension of those long chords. The whole third Act (one of the miracles of all opera) is sheer delight. This is a live recording of the Covent Garden performance in July 1997 which I was lucky enough to attend. John Tomlinson as Hans Sachs, Nancy Gustafson as Eva, and Gosta Winbergh as Walther are a superb cast, and pathos, humour, glory and joy are there in equal measure – with the added advantage of being able to follow the text in detail, rather than rely on the inevitably potted version of surtitles in the theatre.Haitink’s unerring sense of lyrical line, so evident in Wagner, is especially important in Bruckner: Symphony 7 in E major (Chicago Symphony Orchestra, 2007) which I was fortunate to film him […]

What I remember most was Mattila’s Italian: at least I think it was Italian but there were almost no consonants and I need my Elviras to have lots of those. As I wasn’t so impressed I was disappointed when Mattila was announced for the Met’s new Meistersinger in 1993. But, boy, instead I fell and fell hard. For the next twenty years, Mattila performances were […]
