In Reply to: Seriously can anyone be better than Flagstad? Even beyond her prime? posted by jdaniel@jps.net on July 18, 2016 at 22:08:01:
I'm perfectly willing to admit that some listeners might prefer Flagstad, but if they haven't heard any Tristans since, say, 1985 (?) how would they know? It's as if they're stuck in a time warp. Surely, there's an element of sour grapes here?
