Notes & Reviews:

Another entry in the immortal catalogue of conductor Carlos Kleiber (1930–2004), a colossus among 20th-century musicians. Although Kleiber had one of the most limited repertoires of any conductor, within his sphere he was often unapproachable. Any addition to the Kleiber discography is a major event, and this Rosenkavalier is no exception. Kleiber was especially famous for his opera performances, and Der Rosenkavalier was among those in which he was considered peerless. This is a live performance from Munich, July 13, 1973.
