July 2010

Abbado's first large-scale Wagner eschews romantically over-emphasised phrasing and relishes the experimental wind writing and chord-balancing...Hartmut Welker and Waltraud Meier sing and inflect their baddies' duet like an intimate encounter

2010

Cheryl Studer is at her sweetest and purest...[Jerusalem] sings commandingly, conveying both beauty and a true Heldentenor quality...Waltraud Meier as Ortrud and Kurt Moll as King Heinrich are both superb, as fine as any predecessor
