Wagner/ Modl - Martha Modl 1955 Fulfilled By FYE remembering what the sun feelsThe recordings here by Martha Mdl from 1955 document not only her impeccable rendering of the German, but also her singular singing status. She started out as a mezzo soprano, but in 1949, with her first Kundry, she switched to the vocal range midway between mezzo and dramatic soprano, and in March 1952 she sang her first Brnnhilde. She was there from the very start in Neubayreuth: From 1951 to 1955, Mdl sang Kundry in all of the Parsifal performances
