Notes
When the ORFEO label was established in Munich forty years ago, surely no one with the music scene back then would have predicted that the record company would develop into a firmly established player on the classical music market. One of the label’s main priorities in the early years was vocal music, with opera rarities top of the list and since the mid 1980s the re-use of historic tape recordings. Big names featured on the label’s own productions, while ORFEO also developed into a talent factory by discovering and nurturing young artist. This “Legendary Conductors” 10-album set for the anniversary of 40 years of ORFEO label history presents a selection of outstanding recordings with legendary conductors in the true sense of the word.

“To commemorate their 40th Anniversary, the Munich-based ORFEO label has issued a series of multiple-disk sets focusing on leading musicians and singers. Now we have this nine-disk set called Legendary Voices that features the artists listed above in studio recordings made when the singers were in their prime. There are many familiar names and we have a disk of rare recording of duets sung by Carlo Bergonzi and Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, The most recent recording is from tenor Piotr Beczala who’s career like the unfortunate situation with all performers, has been shut down by the Corona19 virus. Audio throughout is excellent…”
