Review by Albert Soletsky
This would have been a notable performance if it weren't for the
often disturbing surface noise, the at times extremely distorted
orchestral sound (no doubt a result of less-than-ideal recording
conditions) and the often up-and-down volume level of the singers
(no doubt due to the participants' movements). As it is, one is aware
of an exciting performance with all principals in top form, with
tempos sometimes at breakneck speed but all things kept well in check
by Kleiber. In short, a great performance marred by (sadly) technical
shortcomings. |
