Author: Alan Blyth
This is an excellent sample of the Salzburg/RCA Zauberflote. With the extended dialogue of the original excluded one can fully appreciate the attraction of Levine's poised, sane direction of the piece and the excellent work of his predominantly satisfying cast. But it comes against the similar CD highlights from the Haitink version on EMI (CDC 7 47008 2, 2/84), where the musical side of things is just that much more satisfying. Against that must be set the larger amount of music included on the new RCA, a fuller representation of the score. It's good to have the First Act quintet, also Monostatos's little aria (pointedly sung here). Perhaps as a consequence, there is hardly any space between the items. The recorded sound is spacious but clear.'
