Music reviews of Orff: Carmina Burana / McNair, Aler, Hagegard; Slatkin
Music Review: Phenomenal and over the top
Rating: 4 Stars
This is the first Carmina Burana I heard, so I'm attached to it, and a little biased. After listening to a number of recordings out there, I'd say that it's still my favorite as far as intensity and passion--some of the tempi are a little far out, but I think that suits the spirit of the piece. McNair and Hagegard are phenomenal, and the tenor Aler acquits himself well with this insanely ranging tenor solo.
I think it's an excellent first recording, but perhaps not *absolute* perfection. The cover is a bit silly, but perhaps the composer would approve--it is, after all, a ribald and orgiastic romp through some very sensual text and music.
Description of Orff: Carmina Burana / McNair, Aler, Hagegard; Slatkin
This most favorite of choral works is infused with life through the fluid singing of the soloists. Hagegard's everyman baritone overflows with sensitive phrasing and a deliciously appealing timbre. McNair's lovely lyric glides across the music, capturing the subtle textual nuances--she has never been more appealing. The chorus is void of feeling in the first half, hypnotically following Slatkin's joyless lead. However, once they enter "The Court of Love" in Part III, they sing blissfully and expansively, capturing all the pleasures that Orff's piece offers. The orchestra, playing at full throttle, is crisp and energetic. --Barbara Eisner BayerOrff, Carl CDs
