"Ich lade gern mir Gaste ein... Chacun a son gout"
Christa Ludwig's earliest recording - already at age 22 her voice is immensely impressive, and she has an enormously confident interpretive style. A fascinating historical document.

Oceanic mezzo voice... one can see the Sea wave in and out in her divine Voice...
Lohengrin O you always say only Schwarzkopf loved Callas : www.limelightmagazine.com.au/christa-ludwig-suggests-anna-netrebko-overhyped
ye I think Christa too... so strange both of them German...
I heard her as Octavian at SPAC in the mid 60s. When she opened that voice in louder passages, the voice was a warm, large, gorgeous sound that enveloped the entire center.
She was incredible. Thanks for your recollection! What is SPAC?
Saratoga Performing Arts Center...It would have been their 1st or second season (1966 or 1967)...Rosenkavalier with Kuchta, Gueden, Berry, Ludwig - Ormandy
Rest in Peace !
Ludwig's voice sounds so mature and well-developed at such a young age. She was a phenomenon no doubt.
jmiller05 it’s sort of ridiculous. Would she have sounded different a decade later?
Great moments of opera Just a testament to an indelible technique. I listened to one of her concerts from the early 90's the other day and the voice was still rock solid, no wobble, legato all intact. Obviously her timbre was more womanly, but relatively unchanged. Just incredible.
Thank you for this upload. Fascinating. Inexplicably, Ludwig recently came under vicious attack (from phony to much worse) in Parterre Box by one of their own self professed (and esteemed/respected, also inexplicably) "experts".
doGreatartistsgrowontrees? How strange. If the greatest post war dramatic mezzo comes in for criticism then who is left. What would they make of Janet Baker?
Great moments of opera Yes, very.
Onigbajamo Useless garbage. Falsehood. Not worth repeating.
which post was it under?
Great moments of opera Wish I remembered. But if I run into it I'll let you know.
That chest voice in the "UN of Chacun" -- it's so FUNNY.The whole things is outrageous, but that's what it's supposed to be. What a huge range she had.
In which language is this aria? German? French? Russian?
