Beethoven: Fidelio, Soloists, the Royal Opera House Chorus & Orchestra / Klemperer
One of the great evenings at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, is captured in this thrilling live recording. The rugged German conductor, Otto Klemperer, made a famous studio recording of Fidelio but this new set has the extra spontaneity of the live occasion, as well as a superior cast, including Sena Jurinac and Jon Vickers. An ‘incandescent view of a great score’ (CRC Awards judges, November 2005). (Visit www.classicrecordcollector.com for the CRC Awards 2005 judges’ comments)
