    Excellent performance in beautiful surrounings

    This was bound to be an excellent performance, with the world's finest orchestra, a leading conductor, and two top soloists in Bryn Terfel and Barbara Bonney. Add to this the home of the New Years concert, and you can not go wrong. Recommended.

    Customer Review

    It is really difficult to find anything substantial to criticise about this recording. Abbado handles the wonderful Berlin Phil and the two excellent choirs superbly with only the Barenboim recording in Chicago matching the opening Selig Sind. Terfel is stunning (without score). The only slight niggle is some of the camera work. The director seems to have a penchant for panning along the back of the hall behind the (rather substantial) pillars which is both pointless and distracting. However this can be easily overlooked in a performance of this quality.
