- Elisabeth Grümmer’s opulent soprano shimmers as Pamina, capturing both the character's youthful innocence and emotional depth.
- As Sarastro, Gottlob Frick lends his luxuriate in his sumptuous legato and resonant low notes, bringing a commanding presence to the role.
- Erika Köth’s Queen of the Night dazzles, not only hitting the high-Fs with precision but executing the florid coloratura with laser-like accuracy
Cons:
