Notes & Reviews:
"Other recordings of 'Die Frau ohne Schatten' have been in and out of the catalogue, some even with similar casts. This version... may be the most vital, most stylish, most moving, and the best-balanced... Christa Ludwig brings astonishing ease, amplitude and emotional fervor to the arching passions of the Dyer's Wife... Rysanek... is emphatically at her best here." -Opera News
