I have been studying Die Zauberflöte in all its facets for over forty years, and have heard every Queen of Night of whom I could find recordings. There is evidence that Josepha Hofer, the singer who created the role in 1791, was more what we would think of as a canary than a true dramatic coloratura, but there is no doubt in my mind that, contrary to his usual practice, Mozart composed this role for an ideal voice he heard in his mind's ear, rather than the special talents of any particular performer. Mme Hofer's voice may have resembled Erika Köth's or Erna Berger's rather than Edda Moser's, but I think if Mozart could have heard Moser, he'd have thought 'At last! The true Astrafiammante!' Everything is here: the hysterical rage, the imperious, demanding tone, the homicidal fury. And of course the vocalism is perfect: top Fs strong and on pitch, triplets in tempo and well articulated, and over all the strong rhythmic pulse of the true artist. No other singer has come close to matching Moser's achievement in this role. She is the Queen of a lifetime.

@Topher Niarhos Yes, I remember when the first Solti Zauberflöte came out, in 1969. I remember being quite impressed at the time, but now am less so. I am not a fan of her strange glottal approach to fioritura, but even less am I a fan of her lack of drama. Everything is loud and overwhelming, but no clear character or emotion ever comes through, and it is here that Moser really scores. Still, what one wouldn't give to hear a voice of Deutekom's amplitude and resonance nowadays!
@jasonhurd43794 жыл бұрын
@Topher Niarhos What we are referring to is the weird 'guh-guh-guh' sound she sometimes uses to articulate each note of the fioriture. It is certainly not legato, but neither is it the more usually heard 'ha-ha-ha' singers use to aspirate their runs. I have never heard any other singer use it, and frankly, I find it disturbing.

@@WongAndrew_ Moser's fioriture are sometimes legato, sometimes aspirated. In her recording of the concert aria Ma che vi fece o stelle...Sperai vicino il lido, there is a distressing amount of aspiration, and she audibly tires about halfway through. Still, I applaud her for even attempting such intricate filigree with her large, somewhat ungainly voice.

Warum diese Aufnahme so unnachahmlich großartig gelungen ist, hat Edda Moser mal selbst erzählt: " Mich hatte man als Königin der Nacht für diese Aufnahme engagiert. Ich kam dann nach München, da sagte mir der Produzent Helmut Storjohann: ‚Es gibt da ein kleines Problem: Frau Sawallisch möchte Sie nicht als Königin haben.‘ Worauf ich fragte, was Frau Sawallisch mit der Aufnahme zu tun hätte? Daraufhin hat der von mir verehrte Helmut Storjohann gesagt: ‚Wenn die Edda die Königin der Nacht nicht singt, fällt die ganze Produktion aus!‘ Sawallisch hat dann in den sauren Apfel gebissen und fragte mich bei der ersten Sitzung etwas kühl, ob ich mit der ersten oder zweiten Arie anfangen möchte. Ich sagte, ich nehme gerne die zweite. Und in dieser Wut, die ich hatte, weil man mich nicht wollte, habe ich den ganzen Zorn in die Arie gelegt und in einem Take durchgesungen. Und diese Aufnahme ist jetzt auf der Platte und schwebt irgendwo über den Sternen."

I'm nearly 74 and have heard this 100 times by 30+ artists, and I have to agree with Krowa Paulinka, SakumaRyuichiNG, and suzabella68, among other fine comments. One needs to project an evil, emotional power that is difficult to convey when focussed on the very difficult runs and demands that Wolfie wanted. But, while he was no harder on peformers than he was on himself, not every performer is a Mozart in their expertise, nor safe at any speed! Perhaps this comment sums it all: Dragan Milunovic5 months agoThanks God, at last a performance close to Mozart’s intended tempo. Edda Moser has the resolution, strength, the drama. She is in a real killer mood, threatening like a thunder, but in a rage more potent than the heaven itself. Her mighty voice is merciless but clear and transparent as a piece of ice. So much energy so crisp, so much emotions so genuine.

I suspect Diana Damrau, whomI adore, must have taken her cues from Ms. Moser's splendid interpretain of this bizarre, enigmatic role. Too many who are able to sing it at all make of it a delicate, girlishly "pretty" coloratura xtravaganza, which is completely at odd's with the ferocious hostility of Mozart's Queen of the Night.
