CD Reviews

Best Version Around!!

johnalex | St Paul MN | 09/22/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I looked all over the Internet to find an English version of this opera and this was the only one I could find. It is very good though and you can understand what everyone is singing and the music is great! It's recorded live so you can hear a few steps on the stage when Hansel and Gretel run towards the witch's house but otherwise you can't tell. This has become one of my favorite classical cds! It's worth it to buy this one, the rest are in German."

Fair Performances- Horrible Recording

Phillip B. Tursky | Lucerne, Ca. United States | 05/08/2003

(2 out of 5 stars)

"This recording has no stereo soundstage, It sounds to me that they put up one omni-directional mic, and pressed record.
Unfortunely this is the only English version readily available.
I have a cassette version of Sadler's Wells-EMI recording from 1964 that is better than all versions....I hope some day it will be remastered, and released. Until this is the only English version I've been able to find, except the Met's 1980's video.
ADDENDUM: November 2003 The Sadler's Wells Version HAS been re-released and backs what I said earlier."
