- A different point of view
This is not actually a review... it's more of a plea for help! I bought this recording a number of years ago when I lived in Hong Kong. Every now and then I take it out and listen, anticipating a leisurely read of the libretto. To my recurring disappointment, when I open the booklet... it's entirely in Japanese! Does anyone know how to get a copy of the CD booklet? Please? IN English?

As for the recording and the performances, they are first rate. I really have nothing else to add. Get ... Read More

- The bad review is right--sorry
This set is terribly let down by the two leads. Ludwig sounds like an Octavian stretching to become a Marschalin--it's a great stunt but the voice isn't right. Gwyneth Jones is a curse, with hher sqawlly, unfocused singing. So without the two leads, it doesn't matter to me how buoyant Bernstein is on the podium--and in truth he is often too hectic. This must have been a great event live, one of Lenny's Viennese triumphs, but the recording falls apart.

- Magical Rosenkavalier
This recording is hard to find currently, but hunt it down if you can. I found an excellent copy on Ebay recently. Bernstein's is the most expressive account of the score on disc, with Christa Ludwig giving one of her very finest recorded perfomances as the Marschallin. She's at her absolute peak, both vocally and dramatically, and perfectly captures both the humor and sadness of this multi-faceted character. Gwyneth Jones is an ideal Octavian, sounding somehow slightly masculine, yet vulnerable, ... Read More

- Don't buy this one
Bernstein conducts this Rosenkavalier better than anyone else ever did. What a great performance this could have been. But Lenny was rather desperate during the recording: nearly all his singers had problems with their voices or were simply indisposed. Christa Ludwig sounds like the grandmother of the Marschallin and Gwyneth Jones is the worst Octavian ever - a gruesome performance. Only Walter Berry had a good day. This recording cannot compete with Karajans 1956 performance or Soltis Decca recording.

- The Definitive Rosenkavalier
This recording is among the finest of any opera recordings, and stands the test of time as well as any of its era. Bernstein captures the Straussian dream-state better than any other conductor, including Clemens Krauss and even Strauss himself. The performance is plenty muscular yet never far from an intense awareness of the dream's fragility--Bernstein captures so well Strauss' and Hofmannsthal's intuition that the turn-of-the-century Viennese world they adored was already in its death throes. The assembled ... Read More
