Wonderful Selection of Famous Treasured Overtures,🎶🎶⭐️🎺🥰✨💥🌹🌹

Fantastic!! And I had the pleasure of playing extra horn in the CSO when he was conductor.

Remembering that Suppé is also the composer of a magnificent Requiem. A genius !

Suppe's overtures never sounded so good before. Solti was a real genius!

Considero que von Suppé fué el precursor de lo que hoy calificamos como MÚSICA ESPECTÁCULO . Genial. Solti insuperable en la dirección.

These great overtures remind me of cartoons time when I was a kid !

I feel exactly the same way about how Toscanini conducted Verdi overtures, too. "The Sicilian Vespers" under his baton, sounds like a Walt Disney Silly Symphony---and that's high praise as far as I'm concerned.

....and the best Cello Solos I ever have heard! It is divine!

Uma música para toda a eternidade, magnifica e grandiosa.

MAGNIFICENT, Cavalry advancement that...! As was the rest indeed..!!!

what a pleasure to hear this kind of music! music that "does not take the head" (French expression). Beautifully interpreted by Solti.

Ahora recuerdo dónde escuché estas oberturas: Los días Jueves y Domingos, la banda de mi pueblo las interpretaba, entre otros repertorios, en el kiosko de la plaza cuando ya había caído la tarde. Gracias, mil gracias por este gran regalo.

Wow amazing 👍💘👌LG from Austria 🇦🇹💘🇦🇹😚😙😗

Solti is excellent in this "opérettes" repertoire. One must say that Suppe was an excellent orchestrator so these overtures are very well written for the large orchestra.

WOW!!! SO good to hear this again, after about 30 years. Thank you "VinylRecordSound" so much for posting! I found a copy of this (late 1970s or early '80s "London" label, as with all Decca recordings released in the U.S. at that time) at our public library. I was already a huge Solti fan(atic) because we lived near Chicago and the Chicago Symphony, of which he was music directory at the time, was our "home" orchestra. I was used to hearing Solti on the CSO radio broadcasts every Sunday afternoon in his trademark (by that time) repertoire of Mahler, Bruckner, Beethoven, etc. We didn't hear much of his "lighter" side, so this record was a revelation. Very few conductors generated as much pure energy in their interpretations as Solti. He was just an overwhelming force. Solti did nothing half-heartedly; always 150% (and talking a mile a minute in interviews with an accent that was a combination of Hungarian, German, French, Italian, British English, and probably a few things he invented himself!). If you responded to his approach, he was a god (or at least a minor deity); if you didn't, he drove you nuts. I was, and still am, in the former category. Hard to believe he's been gone nearly 20 years! This particular record benefited from John Culshaw's crack Decca recording team in Vienna, the superb sonics of the Sofiensaal (alas, no longer used as a recording venue), and the quality of the "Decca sound" of the time. As a practical matter, I think the LP had such killer sound because of the short playing time. Plenty of room to spread out the grooves to give breathing space for the loud, strenuous, full orchestra sound. Oh yeah, the orchestra being the Vienna Philharmonic in top its very best form helps a lot, too. Really too bad that Solti never got to lead a Vienna Phil New Year concert. If these four performances are any indication, it would've been the New Year concert of the century!

Gracias es una musica fantastica llena de colorido muy entretenida, linda interpretación gracias mil gracias

My intro to classics.Still works.

This record had an interesting history. Solti was recording the first of his Wagner cycle in the Sofiensaal in Vienna (Das Rheingold) and it turned out that there was time remaining in the recording session. The producer, John Culshaw, decided to use the time to record these overtures. The recording was released on Decca in Europe and on the "London" label in the US. (London CS 6146) in 1959.

A nice story, but it's highly doubtful that it was a spur of the moment decision to record these as part of "left-over time" in a session. Having played (and recorded) in many musical ensembles, I know they absolutely would rehearse them at least once before recording them, the orchestra would need to know in advance so they are prepared to perform these overtures, the correct instrumentation needs to be present, the parts on the music stands, etc. etc. Lots of details people don't think about or understand unless you play in an orchestra. None of this happens spontaneously, without lots of prep by many people. Just getting the music ready and to the orchestra is a logistic that takes effort and prep time. And it would take HOURS to record these overtures to make an entire album, not something done quickly at the end of the day on a lark because you had some "time remaining" in the session.

Immer wieder ein Genuss 🙏🤩

Great audio quality, which EXACTLY what I wanted. :) Bravo!

!Qué rico volver a regocijarse con esta maravillosa música de Franz Von Suppé¡

Um espetáculo de música. Por vezes lembra as músicas circenses.

Some classical musicians turn their noses up at the GREAT music of Von Suppe. WHY?, because they love to have their little precious discussions about Mahler's oh so great (NOT !!!!) music. People LOVE Von Suppe's music. Much more than some of Mahler's self indulgent stuff. WHY does music HAVE to be so intellectual, and not JUST sound GREAT, like Von Suppe's music?

I think this is possibly the best recording of "Pique Dame" I've ever heard. Solti conducts that piece as fast as it needs to be conducted, especially at the finale.

grandiose!

Good recording.

Solti, the "fierce Hingarian" aces it again.

Cette musique évoque plutôt le temps de la marine à voile (où celà va se nicher tout de même !) ensuite la cavalerie de Bonaparte mais avant qu'il ne devienne Napoléon !!!! En un mot comme en 100....superbe musique et génial Georges Solti...Oh,pardon SIR GEORGES SOLTI !

N Boehm and you had this discussion with Suppé, when?

There's a later recording of these same overtures on the LONDON label which is absolutely definitive. It's the one with the cake and a Grammophone, and Period Cake decorations. Same jacket notes. It just might be nostalgic memory enhancement, but i swear it was a re-recording super -tweeked by Solti in the late 60's or maybe mid 70's. Somebody please post this version.

Solti only recorded the Suppé before this version in 1949 with the London Philharmonic Orchestra. It was also on DECCA. As a matter of fact the LONDON label is the American affiliate of DECCA.

I just assumed that my LONDON recording was of a later date. I'll have to dig it out of storage and look at it. It could be this same DECCA recording with a flashier updated label for American re-release. Solti's Suppe recordings(among many other definitive decca releases) are the best EVER ! Dynamics, intonation, sonority, virtuosity, timbre, mellifluity --- all are utterly impeccable!

Dennis, I just bought a NM copy of London CS6146 (FFRR), the same four overtures: cover has a photo of a Capucchino Coffee, a King of Spades playing card, and a red feather in a ceramic holder...Is this the one you are talking about? The Discogs website doesn't even list a date of release (re-release) for this. Please advise, thanks!

From 1:01 Suppe is playing a little bit with Wagner's tone.

Seriously?! Wow!! You're lucky.........

0:07 to 0:23 --- WOWWWW!! WHO WAS THAT TRUMPETER???

Poet and Peasant (not Paesant)...

Sorry, I have to agree with the comments that this Poet and Peasant interpretation is a bit hyper-caffeinated. I love Solti most of the time but the music needs to breathe in the opening of P and P. Mutti just did this with the WPO New Year (2021) and it was sublime. Both he and the musicians played it like it was the greatest music ever written, enhancing everyone's reputation.

Suppe es unico

Gut. Ed

How pitiful that none of these comments are in english. As a boy, I fell in love with Tchaikovsky, and then in love with such wonderful music. I sat in my darkened room, with the speakers pressed to my ears; my only sensation was the beautiful music. Even now, it is a solace from this terrible world we have created

Almost any text posted on KZread can be translated, if not precisely, at least close enough for gist. Just copy and paste a portion of text into Google search or use Google translate. That can help identify the language and then you can go from there. Also, it is interesting that so many people see darkness in the midst of light. This may be a function of growing older. (I am 67.) For a discussion of large scale improvements despite the horrors of war in the Middle East especially, the plight of refugees, and drug-induced chaos and death, look up Steven Pinker's work. (I only regret I won't be around to see people land on Mars.)

carlulrich2 Solti, in all of his egoism, scored this to his liking. He was great, but play the music as it was composed.

Listen to that brass! That was back in the day when they had clean articulation and clean entries. And Solti's entries are clean and well-defined! Not like many of the present ilk who flatter themselves that they're conducting ahead of the beat while ignoring all the horrible, sloppy entries. I could link pages of examples!
