Friedrich Kuhlau’s Lulu is the Danish “Magic Flute”. Long unavailable on record, this foundational work in the repertoire of Danish comic opera can be enjoyed once again in a historic broadcast performance from 1956. Remastered from original radio tapes and never previously issued, this performance represents the Danish sing-spiel tradition at its most delightful. Five bonus tracks pay testament to Launy Grøndahl’s sympathetic partnerships with the finest Danish singers of his day.
Volume 7 will have concerto by Beethoven and symphony by Schubert, scheduled for late 2021 Summer release.
