The post scheduled for today, Friday, May 19, has been rescheduled for Monday, May 22. It concerns the art of two great Wagnerians, soprano Frida Leider (particularly her Isolde, as revealed by Immortal Performances’ reconstruction of her singing of that role from broadcast and studio sources, 1928-1936) and baritone Herbert Janssen, who is the subject of a six-CD release from Marston, also from a variety of live and studio performances,1927-1947. My apologies for the delay.
