Awards and reviews
October 1997
It is as finely disciplined as any other Solti performance, the orchestral playing is excellent, and the rhythms are crisp, strong and tautly held. There is a sense of spaciousness to the direction that is unusual these days...But there is certainly no want of power to the big ensembles...[Terfel's] is a splendidly sturdy, virile reading, large in scale, and done with enormous vitality.
