About

Haitink’s conducting is direct and fiery. He relishes the fleshpots of the Venusberg scene, captures the fevered ecstasy of the hero’s hymn to Venus, and directs the contentious doings on the Wartburg with theatrical verve. … Klaus König certainly has the muscle and stamina for the title role and also encompasses its vein of inner torture.’ - Gramophone

This mid-price collection presents some of the most important and admired recordings of the EMI Classics and Virgin Classics catalogue which make EMI 'The Home of Opera'.

Bonus Disc contains sypnopsis and libretto with translation.
