Description
American opera star, Frederica Von Stade, known by her childhood nickname "Flicka," celebrates the holiday season with the music of Christmas. She rediscovers the picture postcard Alpine village of St. Wolfgang, where she visited as a child, for a week of Christmas activities with 2 charming children and the townspeople. Joined by popular recording artist Melba Moore, conductor Julius Rudel, and Broadway's Rex Smith, Von Stade and company perform more than 18 carols, including such favorites as "O Tannenbaum" and "Deck The Halls," highlighted by an original music-video style version of "The Twelve Days Of Christmas." FREDERICA VON STADE is "one of the most admired and successful of young American singers," wrote Newsweek magazine. She made her debut at the Metropolitan Opera House in 1970 and has sung in every major opera house in Europe and the United States; and made over 30 recordings."One of the loveliest of lyric mezzos.(her voice is) pure and shining and filled with an exquisite poignance." -Newsweek Magazine

WHO WOULDN'T WANT TO BE FLICKA. . . October 13, 2005
Operaman! (Chicago, IL United States)
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
traipsing about the quaint little old world town of St. Wolfgang, Austria, feasting on sweets, dancing with the locals at the tavern, singing and dancing to Christmas songs with two nice kids in tow. This isn't an exciting program, but it's a lot like the Christmas holidays - even a complete Scrooge can't help but love it! I've watched this one ever since it came out. I am looking forward to the DVD!
My only disappointment is they didn't make a CD of just the musical numbers that Frederica recorded for this special (minus foley effects, narration, and Rex Smith - LOL!) That would have been nice.
