 Notes & Reviews Back to Top 
Anyone who has anything to do with historical voice recordings comes to realize quickly that recordings do their job of historical documentation only to a very limited extent. Arbitrariness on the part of the record companies in their choice of singers plays too great a part; some artists are given preferential treatment, while others are engaged far too rarely. Favoritism and neglect often have little or nothing to do with the artistic powers of the singers in question. Maria Muller is a case in point, a soprano who during her time was at the absolute peak of the young dramatic category, who had an international career - and sadly of whose voice only relatively few recordings exist. This two CD set contains the very best of them.
