Pros:

  • In the 1970s the level of Wagner singing that was going on in Germany even outside the major hubs like Berlin and Munich was astonishing.
  • The uniformly youthful cast is lead by Berit Lindholm in the title role.
  • Ursula Schröder-Feinen brings extactic sensuality to the role of Sieglinde.
  • Leir Roar's Wotan is remarkable for its vocal beauty.

Cons:

  • There is some mild skipping at the end of Act I and a few drop-outs throughout the opera mostly during instrumental sections.
