Notes & Reviews:

Macbeth has been well presented on discs, but this performance...should be held in the greatest esteem and surpasses the others in overall intensity and theatricality...Bohm's orchestra catches the opera's brooding dark tone ideally. Christa Ludwig is in radiant voice, singing with such charisma that she is practically visible...[Sherril Milnes's] warm resonant voice, with its remarkable, secure upper extension is simply glorious, and he truly gets under the skin of this complex character..." -Robert Levine
