"As a music critic, he should at least be able to realize what the problem might be, even if he hasn't listened to the extreme choices that can be heard on some recordings of the score to accommodate Goldes who can't sing Golde's music in those original keys."
For example, on the recording with Robert Merrill and Molly Picon, where Picon sings some of Golde's solo stuff in the same octave as Karnilova but most of it down the octave, and the switching back and forth -- sometimes from one line to the next -- is disconcerting. |
