Karl Goldmark (1830-1915)
People in my native village spent their whole lives scratching the barest living, There were neither books, nor music for its own sake. At weddings, a quartet of labourers would play dances on horribly out-of-tune wind instruments.
Today's music includes excerpts from Goldmark's most successful opera, The Queen of Sheba, performed by great singers of his time; an orchestral scherzo; and his Rustic Wedding Symphony. LOS ANGELES PHILHARMONIC
