Customer Reviews
Excellent
Many people will go for Kleiber or Giulini's recordings, but this Karajan one is something special. All the secco recitatives are cut, which works surprisingly well, as you just get this flow of glorious uninterrupted music.
Kunz, London and Schwarzkopf give exceptionally fine performances, and Jurinac also manages well in a mezzo role. In the first couple of acts, Seefried sounds a bit nasal, but it should not bother you, as she gives an exceptionally characterful performance.
The sound is a bit dated, but it is good for a 1950 mono recording, and it comes with a full libretto, synopsis and essay. It is a little hard to get hold of, but once you've given it a listen, it will be your favourite nozze di figaro
