Description

Following their acclaimed recording of Weber's "Freischütz", the Dresden Philharmonic, under chief conductor Marek Janowski, presents another German opera classic with Beethoven's "Fidelio". For this production, they have collaborated with a first-rate cast with proven experience in German opera: Lise Davidsen (Fidelio/Leonore), Christian Elsner (Florestan), Georg Zeppenfeld (Rocco), Christina Landshamer (Marzelline), Cornel Frey (Jaquino), Johannes Martin Kränzle (Don Pizzarro), and Günther Groissböck (Don Fernando). This was originally intended to be a live concert recording, but the pandemic prevented performances. Fortunately, it proved possible to record Beethoven's masterpiece in two studio sessions.
