Anny Felbermayer, On Vanguard 481, sings the sixteen songs of Mozart that Schwarzkopf recorded on Angel 35270, and eight more, including the charming Die Verschwei gung; but she gives only a couple of stanzas of the superb ironically humorous song "Die Alte." Her soprano voice no longer has the exquisite crystalline quality it had, but it is still beautiful; and she uses it in these songs with admirable musical taste and expressive effect. Felbermayer achieves nothing comparable with the pointing up of the humor by Schwarzkopf's dramatized performance.
