- Q77205 abstract "Ferdinand Frantz (born February 8, 1906, Kassel - May 26, 1959, Munich), was a German operatic bass-baritone. He was well known in his time for his performances in the operas of Richard Wagner.Fond of music as a boy, he joined a choral society in Kassel and at 16 was chosen to take a small solo part. Four years followed of training his bass voice. Frantz's first role was in the Kassel Staatstheater in 1927, playing Hermann Ortel in a production of Wagner's Die Meistersinger. He sang at the Halle Opera House from 1930–32, then in Chemnitz from 1932–1937, and then in Hamburg with the Hamburg State Opera from 1937-43. In 1943, he began singing with the Munich State Opera, for whom he would sing until the year of his death.Frantz guested at the Vienna Staatsoper, Semper Oper in Dresden, at La Scala, and Covent Garden. He debuted at the Metropolitan Opera in 1949, playing Wotan in Wagner's Die Walküre. This role caused some consternation among operagoers: Helen Traubel was to play Brünnhilde opposite Frantz's Wotan, and when Traubel could not perform, Frantz's wife, soprano Helena Braun, stepped into the role. The resulting situation of a husband and wife playing the roles of father and daughter was covered on the front page of New York newspapers.He began as a low bass and moved up to bass-baritone. He was best known as Wotan/Wanderer and Hans Sachs; several recordings are available of him doing these roles in the late 1940s and early 1950s. "Opera" called his Sachs "one of the most impressive of our day". He also left records as Amfortas, Gurnemanz, Friedrich von Telramund, Iago (in German translation), Don Pizarro, and Jokanaan, and as bass soloist in Beethoven's 9th Symphony. An anthology of operatic arias is also available.".
