Hunding is not nearly as demanding as Hagen! Hunding only actually sings a few lines--less than ninety seconds of singing total in the whole opera. In contrast, Hagen sings all the time, and he has that air-raid-siren-sounding scene where he summons the Gibichung troops, sustained high notes at the top of his lungs. Completely inappropriate for Kurt Moll's voice. Kurt Moll's best Wagner performance (IMHO) was Gurnemanz. Noble, benevolent, golden-voiced. And while his voice was certainly large, his SOUL was the soul of a lieder-singer. Listen to his recording of Schubert's "Lieder für Bass", it's unbelievable, every syllable is beautiful and he's SO SMART, he makes Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau seem like a clown by comparison.

Only Kurt Moll. Even Josef Greindl loses his vibrato on that note. Herbert Alsen, Gottlob Frick, Ludwig Weber, Matti Salminen, Robert Lloyd, Kurt Bohme, Martti Talvela, Gyorgy Littasy, Cornelius Hauptman, all of them, lose their vibrato on that note too.

Theodore Shulman There are plenty of choir singers who can sing notes much lower. Glenn Miller recently won a Grammy for a song in which he sings a G1. Vladimir Miller (no relation) can sing to at least an F1. A few other Russians can go that low and lower, but their names are long and I don't feel like typing them.

Vous dites n'importe quoi. Vous mélangez des chanteurs qui chantent dans de grandes salles des rôles parfois immense avec des chanteurs servis par des acoustiques avantageuses, des enregistrements qui mettent en valeur leur voix, des répertoires faciles aux tempis lents et qui demande un registre vocal plus restreint. Glenn Miller chante mal, sans puissance. les russes dont vous parlez chantent comme des casseroles, le timbre est horrible, ils ont souvent des problèmes de justesse. Kurt Moll, quant à lui, est doué d'un organe superbe et peu commun mis au service de l'art, de l'intelligence, de la culture. C'est toute la différence et je doute que vous puissiez la comprendre.

Vous dites n'importe quoi. Vous mélangez des chanteurs qui chantent dans de grandes salles des rôles parfois immense avec des chanteurs servis par des acoustiques avantageuses, des enregistrements qui mettent en valeur leur voix, des répertoires faciles aux tempis lents et qui demande un registre vocal plus restreint. Glenn Miller chante mal, sans puissance. les russes dont vous parlez chantent comme des casseroles, le timbre est horrible, ils ont souvent des problèmes de justesse. Kurt Moll, quant à lui, est doué d'un organe superbe et peu commun mis au service de l'art, de l'intelligence, de la culture. C'est toute la différence et je doute que vous puissiez la comprendre.

Jake 3752 Well, Moll never sang under Bb1 but it doesn't mean he couldn't. I've heard that Vladimir Miller said once that Moll was able to do a full, loud and resonant F1.
This can not be 1993! Karajan was dead by 1989...
Karajan's conducting is painfully slow here.

This recording was made in the 80s when Karajan was suffering from back problems. That was the cause for his slow conducting.

@@orion2116 D2 actually . It's just that Moll's timbre makes it sound lower.
it's a great rendition, though sometimes it seems to be singing Gurnemanz instead of Ochs

Yes, that's Kurt Moll's weakness: he cannot make himself sound stupid or crude. He always sounds like a deep-souled genius, even when he sings grunting cave-man types like Osmin and Hunding.

Aage Haugland's acting as Ochs is better. Haugland gets the character's BABYISHNESS right.

And yet in 1990, the NYT called him elephantine, boorish and brutish in the role. I wish I had seen it, though.
