My first stay Gurrelieder occurred not lengthy after I moved to New York when Zubin Mehta carried out it for his farewell to the New York Philharmonic in Could 1991 with Susan Dunn, Florence Quivar, and Gary Lakes. It felt extra-special as the nice Hans Hotter was the narrator of the penultimate motion.
Ten years later when the Met Orchestra was nonetheless doing large choral works at Carnegie Corridor, James Levine carried out one in every of his favourite works that includes Deborah Voigt, Violeta Urmana, and Ben Heppner with one other celebrated singer of the previous because the Narrator: Ernst Haefliger, who paradoxically by no means carried out with the Met as a tenor.
