Amazon REVIEW:
There are more exciting, more strongly characterized recordings of this strange masterpiece. Kertesz (Decca), Dorati (Mercury) and Boulez (Sony or DGG) all present performances that absolutely brim with theatrical atmosphere; you can almost visualize how each performance would appear on stage. Inbal (like Fischer on Sony) takes a different tack. Inbal plays "Bluebeard" as interiorized mind-drama and, in a way, this is perfectly suited to the kind of theatre piece Bartok and his collaborator Bela Balasz created over 70 years ago. Like Debussy in "Pelleas and Melisande," Bartok in "Bluebeard's Castle" presents a drama that really occurs in someone's mind - Bluebeard's - or the author's - or the listener's. Sort of like theatrical chamber music ala Strindberg. Inbal's singers are not in the same league as Dorati's et al., but this is a recording that should be heard nevertheless. Wonderfully rich yet transparent sound from Denon.
