Zednik rules! The best Loge and Mime of his generation, and Herod (Salome) and Hauptman (Wozzeck) by the way. Chereau does take the best out of him as and actor. How poorer the action in the Met version (as Mime) :( Well, at least the voice remains. Has anyone here (besides me) read his autobiography?

He IS Riff Raff! (by the way: its a jump to the left) I realy can't take this seriously now. And the whole veil dance is really, REALLY odd. Seattle Opera totally tops this!

HE REALLY DOES LOOK LIKE RIFF RAFF... Just "one step to the left"??!!

Freia thinks: I thought the Giants touching me was bad enough, but Riff Raff is creeping me out.

I think that they are two kinds of Loge: Charaktertenor Loge (like Zednik, Clark etc.) and Heldentenor Loge (Windgassen, Jerusalem). Charaktertenors are more, well, characteristic and eccentric, but Heldentenors are in my opinion also nice in this role. Windgassen is especially elegant and eloquent one, he creates an unusual impression of charming and handsome Loge :)

How do you rate Gerhard Stolze in either role?To me he is the quintessential Loge/Mime.

Heinz Zednik, Peter Schreier, and Graham Clark are the most excellent choices for the role of Loge. Siegfried Jerusalem and Wolfgang Windgassen aren't as good, but that's just a matter of opinion.

Or Mime. Words can't describe the nuance of his performances in either role -- he's simply perfect. |
