Pros:
- The cast assembled for this performance of Fidelio is the very definition of "all-star".
- Ingrid Bjoner's silvery soprano soars with effortless grace.
- James King makes the part of Florestan sound easy.
- Ingvar Wixell manages all of the bluster of Pizzaro, without detracting from the natural elegance of his baritone.
- The excellent stereo sound means that all of Karl Böhm's meticulous details come through brilliantly.
Cons:
- None to mention.
