Franz Schreker - Die Gezeichneten “The Stigmatized” <BR> BRIDGE 9400A/C"Our times are full of strange things." With these words the beautiful Carlotta Nardi begins her seduction of the hunchback Alviano Salvago in the second act of Franz Schrekers 1915 opera, Die Gezeichneten (The Stigmatized). It is a scene of tender intimacies and unsettling revelations, of veiled allusions and naked truths and all couched in music of a supple lyric beauty that has few equals in operatic literature. This complete performance is from
