The Bergen, BBC and Minneapolis orchestras are class acts, but they seem to be recording All the Works of Everybody and pumping them out as fast as they can.
I listened to samples of the Gurrelieder and Alwyn Mellor seems a little flat on her first ecstatic high note: "Du sendest mir, around .57 seconds.
Am I hearing things?
She also adds a little annoying swell to damned every note, unless the sample is misleading.
Please give us a report ASAP.
