performed by Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, Carlos Kleiber (conductor)
composed by Ludwig van Beethoven

If High Art were a democracy, Carlos Kleiber's recordings of Beethoven's Fifth and Seventh symphonies with the Vienna Philharmonic would be voted the greatest recordings of those works ever made. The performances are perfect, the interpretations ideal, and best of all, they make these two overplayed and over-recorded works sound absolutely new. ...

composed by Richard Wagner

Opera d'Oro's live recording of Tristan und Isolde from the 1974 Bayreuth Festival has surprisingly good sound -- warm and relatively clean, with fine balance and little background noise. (Two caveats -- at one point during Isolde's first-act monologue, the sound drops out entirely for a split second, and there is a skip in the third act.) The ...

composed by Franz Schubert, Johannes Brahms, Richard Wagner

There have never been any recordings of Schubert's Symphony in B minor or Brahms' Symphony in E minor or Wagner's Tristan und Isolde better than these recordings by Carlos Kleiber. There have been recordings as great, recordings by Furtwängler, Walter, Klemperer, or by Carlos' father Erich Kleiber, but for absolute intensity of concentration, for ...

composed by Richard Strauss

Although it might seem reasonable to prefer Carlos Kleiber's later 1994 recording of Der Rosenkavalier for Deutsche Grammophon -- after all, it has the Felicity Lott, Anne Sofie von Otter, Barbara Bonney, and Kurt Moll, plus the Weiner Philharmoniker and first-class DG sound -- there are still compelling reasons to hear his earlier 1974 recording. ...

composed by Richard Wagner

Carlos Kleiber's Tristan und Isolde is an intricately nuanced affair, smaller in its overall sound, but more human in its conception than many other recorded performances (and certainly than most stage performances). "Smaller" is actually the wrong word: it never lacks punch, and it rises to the same overwhelming, lyrical crescendos that you'd ...

composed by Richard Wagner

Is this the greatest Tristan ever recorded? No: that would be Furtwängler's 1953 EMI recording. Is this the greatest Tristan by Carlos Kleiber ever recorded? No: that would be his 1982 DG recording. But, after those two, this 1974 Kleiber is arguably the greatest Tristan ever recorded. It has a sometimes terrific, sometimes merely tolerable cast, ...

composed by Giuseppe Verdi

Carlos Kleiber's 1977 La Traviata is a rare gestalt among studio opera recordings, and it is one of the conductor's finer achievements. Kleiber knits the score together with unwavering rhythmic and dramatic intensity, never allowing any single moment to eclipse the larger scene or musical structure. The singers are kept on a tight leash -- given ...
