'The first question to ask of any operatic DVD is when the performance
took place. The more recent, the more nonsensical will be the
production. So it is cause for relief and gratitude that this Hamburg
"Fidelio" is all but forty years on. The sound is mono, the colour
wavers occasionally, and the magnificent cast of singers mimes to the
pre-recorded performance. We are deprived of Rocco's "Gold" aria and
the dialogue is sensibly cut; otherwise Beethoven is free to tell an
unvarnished tale that moved him to the depths.'

Robert Anderson, writing in today's Music & Vision Magazine
