Conducted by Robert Bass
Performed by Collegiate Orchestra & Chorus
Recorded Live at Carnegie Hall, Nov. 19, 1989

Bürgermeister: Richard Cassily, Der Holsteiner: Terry Cook, Frau: Karen Williams, Frontoffizier: Stephen Lusmann, Hornist: Paul Schmidt, Kommandant: Roger Roloff, Konstable: Max Wittges, Marie: Alessandra Marc, Musketier: Peter van Derick, Offizier: Stephen Lusmann, Piemonteser: Ruben Broitman, Prälat: James Wood, Schütze: George Shirley, Wachtmeister: William Wilderman

This little known and not oft-performed Strauss gem -- in a live performance from Carnegia Hall -- is simply glorious. Ms. Marc is in wonderful voice, as she was when she sung this at Santa Fe a number of years ago. A must for Strauss fans. --Amazon customer
