Opera D BSIN05052480 (2 CD-Set)

Danon, Oscar / Rothenberger / Kmentt / Wächter / Little / H. Konetzni - The Rake's Progress (GA in German, Wien 1965) (2 CD-Set)

Composer: Igor Stravinsky

A spectacular presentation of The Rake's Progress courtesy of the Wiener Staatsoper. Waldemar Kmentt's lyric exuberance coupled with his stentorian reserves make him an ideal Tom. Anneliese Rothenberger is ravishing as Anne. Though not a true bass, Eberhard Wächter brings dashing malevolance to the role of Nick Shadow. Additional kudos go to Vera Little as Baba the Turk, and Hilde Konetzni as Mother Goose.
