Solisten Ferdinand und Ernst Jankowitsch/ Die Wiener Symphoniker/Leitung Friedrich Brenn/1956 ! Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart/Motette "Sub tuum praesidium" F-dur K.V. 198 Lyrics at http://www.boysoloist.com ! ===================================== Information (Informationen) about the album and the Jankowitsch twins see my video Wiener Sängerknaben Pergolesi (tag Jankowitsch). Information (Informationen)from the album specially about the duet, new translated by maestrovoci: " The second work by Mozart ....according to Köchel´s information, composed in 1773 in Milano.... This is one of the most-sung piece by the soprano twin-singer. As in almost all duets, the form is based on imitation, by which these clear sound differences of the voices are doubly well distinguished".

Sep 7, 2008 - ... from the golden age of the WSK ... purists would take note that an orchestra is employed where Mozart intended only a string quartet, and the Romantic treatment - slow tempo and use of vibrato in the strings - compare with the other WSK choice for style. The twins sound almost English in their tone production, almost certainly a result of Friedrich Brenn's training, compared with his contemporary Kapschi Froschauer, whose boys sang with more "body tone". Thank you!

Sep 7, 2008 - Thank You for this again substantiated comment, which is very interesting for all fans. I invited You as a friend, because I again and again could read Your comments to videos which were posted by other editors. Sorry for the sound faults (= richtiges Englisch ?) which emerge sometimes. In 1956 and later I did not handle the recording so as it would have been necessary...

Sep 9, 2008 - Thank you for sharing. Very graceful duet! You can see the twins singins as duet after 20 years from this duet in a vid posted as "(ORF) Sanctus from Stravinsky's Mass"(I do not know actual title of the music, filmed around 1972) on Utube. This time, of course, twins are tenor and bass, and soprano soloist is Peter Jelosits.
