Документы по Истории Мюнхенского Сговора. 1937 1939

In 1939 Charlie Barnet made some of the best records of his entire career. Inspired by the example of Duke Ellington, he developed his orchestra into a formidable swing machine that sometimes seemed more closely connected to the Afro-American tradition than most of the other white big bands on the scene at that time.

Carl Leonhardt Conducts Handel: Rodelinde is a recording under the direction of Carl Leonhardt who leads Chor und Orchester Des Reicgssenders Stuggart on this hänsler Classic from 1938-1939. First of all one has to say that the recording is over 70 years old and bearing this in mind the recording is quite marvelous. The booklet is available in English, French, German and Spanish. Reinhard Ermen has written a short but very informative essay on the opera in question. I was very impressed with this recording, the singers, production and the conductor. Highly recommended.
