BIGGS IN IBERIA

BIGGS IN IBERIA
Z. Power Biggs win probably
soon turn up as Q lecturer for
the National Geographic So
ciety. Having played Mozart
in Salzburg and covered most
Of the rest Of Europe playing
Bach's D minor toccata and
fugue. he has now made the
rounds Of the pipe organs Of
the Iberian peninsula.
Creatively speaking. Spain
and Portugal have not counted
for much in musical history.
at least until comparatively
lately. But Mr.. Biggs managed
to find enough organ music to
give q Columbia disc an in
teresting nationalistic flavor
as to basic content as well as
to the instruments played. The
flavor. Of course. Is not 80
pronounced as It has become
in recent times, for the music
was written between the 18th
and 18th centuries when ma
tionalism was just taking
shape. Thus. the musical Ian
guage has q good deal In
common with, even. Bach's.
The composers are practi-
cally unknown. They include
Carlos Seixas. Antonio Car
reira. Fret Jacinto. Antonio
Valente, Joao de Sousa Car
valho. Agostinho da Cruz.
Juan Cabanilles. Narcis Cas-
anovas, Tomas de Santa Ma
ria and Antonio de Ca5ezon,
an organist and clavichordist
for Charles v. ana Philip II,
who was apparently blind
from BIRTH tFor some reason
the flrst composer on the disc
is an Italian, Bernardo Pas
quini.)
Columbia, unfortunately,
gives US no information what
ever about these forgotten
musicians, so that the Biggs
enterprise can hardly do much
to restore them to individual
fame.
Their handiwork is listen
able. however. and the disc is
rather interesting.

TURNTABLE TALK
BY JAMES G. DEANE

There are not very many
recorded song recitals-not.
that is. when you consider the
potential. Take Schubert's sos
songs. for example. Only q
relative handful are yet avail
able on discs. And there must
b. hundreds Of songs by other
composers that could create
repeated pleasure II they could
be heard.
London has turned UP Q new
recitalist. She Ia Lisa della
Casa. q soprano who already
has made q stable. and favor
able. imprint as an opera
singer. She Is the Donna FL
vira, Fiordiligi and Countess in
London's Mozart opera record
ings.
Miss Della Casa's first song
record is a potpourri. There
are four lieder by Schubert.
and an equal number. respec-
lively, by Brahms. Wolf and
Richard Strauss. Gretchen
am Spinnrade." ''Du Dist die
Ruiz" "Auf dem Wasser zu
singer" and the irresistible
I'm Fruehling" are the Schu-
bert items.
Miss Della Casa has q lovely.
soaring voice. and the collec-
ton especially the Schubert
lis q pleasure to listen to.
One may hope that London
will persuade-or permit-her
to make some more lieder rec
ords. If some unfamiliar
Schubert could be unearthed,
such an enterprise would be
especially valuable.
Hide Gueden. who has been
heard here in opera, has sung
q full record Of Richard
Strauss songs for London, in
GLIDING all four OF those on
the Della Casa disc. Her
voice Is brighter than Della
Casa's. and her approach is
more animated. both of which
qualities serve Strauss well.
Renata Tebaldi has contrib
uted a song collection, also on
London, which parallels her
recent concert here, in that
the sole non-Italians repre-
sented are Handel, by an air
with Italian Words from
Julius Caesar" and Turina,
by his "Cantares." The other
composers include Alessandro

SIM, Bellini. Verdi "a strange

BACK TO BACH

The d minor toccata and
fugue has taken its inevitable
place In the new series Of
Bach's complete organ works
which Carl Weinrich, the Or
ganist at Princeton. is record
ing for Westminster. Along
with 1t. on Vol. 4 Of West
minister's series. are the similar
work in F. the familiar c
minor passacaglia and fugue
and the toccata. adagio and
fugue In c major.
Mr.. Weinrich. who is per-
forming on q distinctive.
bright sounding organ in
Skaenninge. Sweden. plays
with admiral proportion and
forward motion. and the re-
corded sound is very realistic.
Robert Owen, organist OF
Christ Church In Bronxville.
N. Y, performs a whole disc
ful OF toccatas on another
Westminster issue. In this case
the music is by more modern
composers, including Widor,
Vierne, Mulet, Boellman. Roget
and Busser. For enthusiasts,
the disc may have interest. but
for one listener. II eventually
became too much OF one thing.

In it he proves he's a real

Lending sympathetic support
is the orchestra Of viii Lorin

this disc is the most moving
