Title: Denoke in a class of her own, indeed...!
Review: ...or how curiosity killed this cat... I should have taken as a sign of things to come the fact that the praises of the Volga sang by Rainer Trost, whom previously I only knew for his intelligent and beautiful singing, are relentlessly shouted between forte and fortissimo: forget that it is the first singing you hear and a beautiful passage in other recordings; as for the heroine, to my dismay, she manages to ruin her pivotal duet with Varvara, distracting me with her tentative singing where others, sure of theirs , can take the opportunity to draw the heroin upon the beautiful music and words that Janacek provided. I found her quite unremarkable, unidiomatic, almost unmusical. I'd be hard pressed to find any reason why I should keep this recording. It is not even cheap. I'd pick Krombholc or Mackerras (his two recordings of the opera) anytime.
