Schubert: Fierrabras, D796, Act 1 - Marsch und Chor (N. dacapo):"Zu hohen Ruhmespforten". by Arnold Schoenberg Chor & Erwin Ortner & Chamber Orchestra Of Europe & Claudio Abbado.

Fortunately, however, the late Claudio Abbado decided to revive the opera in performances at the Theatre an der Wien in Vienna in the late 1980s with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe; and the end result is a truly satisfying recording that puts this oft-forgotten opera in at least a better place than the neglect it had been in for over . In the Abbado recording this is sung by Cheryl Studer with such rapt, breathlessness that its urgency jumps out of the speakers, taking one by surprise. As remarkable as the melodic line is, Schubert’s orchestrations here and everywhere throughout the opera could serve as a textbook of operatic orchestral writing with spectacular integration of vocal underscoring/voice doubling as well as independent movement and almost visual imagery created through his instrumentation.
