Short intro

Album Themes. Other Times & Places Romance. Lorin Maazel, James McCracken, Birgit Nilsson. Beethoven: Fidelio. Beethoven: Fidelio, Op. 72, Act 2 - Er sterbe. Meine Leonore by Tom Krause & Kurt Böhme & James McCracken & Birgit Nilsson & Wiener Philharmoniker & Lorin Maazel. Not Available. Maazel has a firm grip on the score and gets a very tight performance from the Vienna Philharmonic. It is a good reading, but tight is not always as dramatic or sympathetic as it could be. It's not a complete failure mind you. I think that Act 2 Scene 1 is really very good and perhaps the best part of this recording. I do listen to that repeatedly. The remastered sound quality is excellent and the Vienna Philharmonic sound great . 2 CD. US1996. London Records.
