Wer, wenn nicht der Komponist selbst weiß am besten, wie sein Werk klingen muss? Und deshalb ist diese Aufnahme etwas ganz besonderes: Leonard Bernstein leitet bei dieser Produktion das London Symphony Orchestra. Und auch die Besetzung ist ein absoluter Volltreffer: Jerry Hadley und June Anderson brillieren mit ihrer Technik und ihrem komödiantischen Talent. Sängerlegenden Nicolai Gedda und seine Kollegen treten in dieser fulminanten Umsetz der quirrligen Musik Bernstein im Besonderen hervor.
Reviews
G.Persché in FonoForum 01/07: "Dass dieser Mitschnitt einer konzertanten Aufführung (1989, Barbican Centre, London) de 'comic operetta', die Leonard Bernstein & Friends aus Voltaires Vorlage fertigten, eine der besten aller möglichen Wiedergaben darstellt, ist unbestritten. Sie atmet jenes bezaubernde Feuer der Spontaneität, das der zur gleichen Zeit in den Abbey Road Studios ebenfalls unter der Leitung des Komponisten entstandenen CD-Einspielung ein wenig fehlt. Es ist zugleich das kostbare Dokument eines der letzten großen Auftritte Bernsteins."-
