Listen to a Sample:

 

Pros:

  • This performance marks the farewell of one of the greatest Wagnerians the world has ever known, Lauritz Melchior. At age 70, he certainly can't compete with his earlier recordings, but he still does admirably and would give many Heldentenors in their prime a run for their money. What is surprising is how musically unsteady he is considering he had sung this role for decades.
  • The recording is in excellent stereo sound.

Cons:

  • None to mention.
