Thomas Allen is gaining notable recognition as a recitalist. Dichterliebe has always been one of his favourite offerings, and he brings to it all the qualities of manly ardour, crisp, no-nonsense articulation and unmannered interpretation that have marked his readings in the recital room. You sense that this is a strong character who has been wronged in love, not perhaps quite the pining poet inferred by Heine's poems and Schumann's settings... Vignoles plays finely and responsively... Allen rises splendidly to the challenge of both the lyrical and dramatic songs: of the latter, ''Warte, warte wilde Schiffmann'' and ''Berg' und Burgen'' with their many vivid images, go particularly well and the ''valedictory dedication'' (JOC's description in her excellent notes) of the final song is suitably expansive. Vignoles here provides many invaluable moments of character and finesse. The three additional Heine settings, each a masterpiece, are fully comprehended and expounded by both artists.
-- Alan Blyth, Gramophone [9/1989] |
