Pros:
- If you don't know Strauss' rarely performed Friedenstag, you are in for a treat. It bears all the hallmarks of Strauss' unique compositional style, and concludes with a triumphant, and inspired ending reminiscent of Fidelio.
- The cast is first-rate, particularly John Mitchinson in the role of the Mayor.
- The sound is excellent.
Cons:
- None to mention.
