Karl Bohm and the Staatskapelle of DresdenHistorical Recordings 1937, 1939, 1942"I headed the Sachsische Staatskapelle Dresden for nine years - the most wonderfuland meaningful time of my life", wrote Karl Bohm in 1973 for the 425th anniversaryof the orchestra. He was forty years of age in 1934, when he moved up the Elbe fromHamburg to assume direction of the Dresden State Orchestra and Opera. There, his sensitive yet dramatic style of conducting, his vigour and intellectual resilience, his feel for classical form and unerring sense of tempo (not to mention his strict disciplineand utterly infallible hearing) very soon won the respect and trust of themusicians and singers in his charge; they did after all represent one of the best orchestrasand most capable opera ensembles in Europe.Every season, Bohm conducted nearly all the Staatskapelle concerts and about 70opera performances, setting new standards above all in the Mozart, Wagner and Straussrepertoire (including the world premieres of Die Schweigsame Frau and Daphne, the latter work being dedicated to him). In this extraordinarily extensive activity, he set his stamp on the ensemble, whose guest performances confirmed it's internationalranking. Even in his first year in Dresden, he made recordings in the Semperoper, which always had to be especially prepared for the purpose. They includednumerous individual symphonic works and items from opera, as well as lavish projectsthat were technically difficult to record at the time.
