composed by Richard Wagner

This classic performance of Tristan und Isolde from the 1952 Bayreuth Festival has seen a number of incarnations on CD. That's not surprising, given the sound quality, which is unusually clean, full, and well-balanced for a live recording of that era, the high standard of the orchestral playing, and the star turns from the principals. Herbert von ...

composed by Richard Wagner

Is it or isn't it a great Dutchman? It's hard to tell from the reviews. When first released in 1955, this Die fliegende Holländer with Astrid Varnay as Senta, Ludwig Weber as Daland, and Hermann Uhde in the title role plus Joseph Keilberth leading the Bayreuth Festival Orchestra and Chorus was praised for its singing and slighted for its ...

composed by Richard Wagner

A perfectly acceptable performance, Joseph Keilberth's Das Rheingold at the 1955 Bayreuth Festival would no doubt have satisfied most listeners. But although the performance was taped in stereo by Decca, the recording remained unreleased until 2006 when Testament finally issued it, and by that time finer performances, including Decca's own ...

composed by Richard Wagner

Although the big story in Wagner reissues in 2006 was the first commercial release of the 1953 Joseph Keilberth/Bayreuth Ring, the first stereo Ring, the real story is the first great-sounding release of the 1953 Clemens Krauss/Bayreuth Ring, the first and only Ring by one of the greatest of Wagner conductors.
