I can think of no more appropriate way to end this difficult year than with another episode lauding my late friend, the sublime American lyric tenor Jerry Hadley. I am of the firm belief that Jerry was one of the finest singers this country has ever produced. Everyone has their favorite among his performances, which display an eclecticism rare among opera singers, but I believe that his artistry found its fullest and truest expression in his performances of Viennese operetta. His bright, sunny vocal timbre, his capacity for vocal shading and dynamics, his sense of both humor and pathos, his ringing high notes, as well as of precision and acuity of his German diction make him an ideal interpreter of this music. The majority of the music heard on this episode comes from two albums of operetta arias that Jerry recorded in 1995 under the baton of Richard Bonynge. This is supplemented by two duets with Australian soprano Deborah Riedel from a series of English-language versions of Lehár operettas also conducted by Bonynge, as well as various live performances of Jerry in the music of Johann Strauss II and Erich Korngold. While Lehár is the most prominently featured composer, we also heard excerpts from work by Emmerich Kálmán, Carl Millöcker, Ralph Benatzky, Leo Fall, and that king of operetta tenors himself, Richard Tauber, who was also quite a capable composer. The episode concludes with reminiscences of my close friendship with Jerry, crowned by a magisterial live performance of “Dein ist mein ganzes Herz.” Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Gstaad Menuhin Festival Podcast – L'histoire intime des chefs-d'œuvre du classique
Comment rendre hommage à Vienne sans faire résonner la musique de l'un des plus emblématiques de ses maîtres, Johann Strauss II? Portées par Alfred Eschwé et son Wiener Johann Strauss Orchester, ses valses et polkas seront bien présentes sous la Tente du Festival de Gstaad lors de ce grand gala final… mais elles seront loin d'être seules! Car la Vienne qui danse et qui s'amuse du 19e et du début du 20e siècle, c'était aussi les opérettes aux accents volontiers tziganes de Franz Lehár et Emmerich Kálmán, de même que les spectacles rose bonbon de Carl Zeller. Sans oublier Rudolf Sieczyński, Viennois d'origine polonaise – c'étaient les derniers feux de la mosaïque culturelle de l'immense empire des Habsbourg… – auteur de l'emblématique et inoxydable «Wien, du Stadt meiner Träume» [Vienne, ville de mes rêves], une chanson devenue iconique de la nostalgie de ces temps révolus. On peut compter sur Polina Pasztircsák et Dovlet Nurgeldiyev pour rendre ces pages de velours délicieusement… sucrées!
Gstaad Menuhin Festival Podcast - Die Geschichten hinter den Meisterwerken der klassischen Musik
Wie kann man Wien seine Reverenz erweisen ohne Werke des «musikalischen Schädels in Europa», wie Richard Wagner Johann Strauss (Sohn) nannte, erklingen zu lassen? Alfred Eschwé und das Wiener Johann Strauss Orchester präsentieren seine Walzer und Polkas bei der grossen Abschlussgala im Festival-Zelt Gstaad. Doch damit nicht genug! Denn im tanz- und amüsierfreudigen Wien des 19. und frühen 20. Jahrhunderts begeisterten auch die Operetten von Franz Lehár und Emmerich Kálmán mit ihren Zigeunerklängen, oder die melodieseligen Stücke von Carl Zeller. Nicht zu vergessen Rudolf Sieczyński, ein Wiener mit polnischen Vorfahren, der Autor des unverwüstlichen Lieds «Wien, du Stadt meiner Träume» ist. Dieser Nachklang der kulturellen Vielfalt des riesigen Habsburger Imperiums bringt wie kaum ein anderes Programm die Sehnsucht nach einer längst vergangenen Zeit zum Ausdruck. Polina Pasztircsák und Dovlet Nurgeldiyev werden fraglos den rechten Ton für diese unvergänglichen Zeugnisse der leichten Muse finden.

Am 11. Februar 2017 fand die Premiere von Emmerich Kálmáns "Zirkusprinzessin" an der Oper Graz in der Inszenierung von Peter Lund statt. Eine überzeugende Produktion der gleichnishaften Operette, allerdings mangelt es an glaubwürdigen Darstellern, meint Kritiker Peter Jungblut.
