Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The best 'Mastersingers' I have ever heard.
Usually I find the orchestration of this opera a bit over-rich, thick and stodgy, but not so with Goodall. He thins out the texture wonderfully while revealing the counterpoint and the inner parts far clearer than ever before. Here it has such air and space to breath, that instead of being heavy and complacently bourgeois it is light and lyrical.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - 'Meistersinger' in English: Good News, Bad News -- Mostly Good
This is a much-talked-about live recording, long thought lost, of a BBC broadcast in 1968 of an English-language production of Wagner's 'Die Meistersinger' from the Sadler's Wells Opera (now called the English National Opera).

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The holy grail of opera recordings
The previous review sums it all up. The conducting, playing and singing is sublime. The recording/ remastering quality for a radio broadcast is brilliant.

I played all 4 cds in one sitting the day I bought it.

The only slight negative is the singing in an english translation it does take a bit getting use to (the composer probably would turn in his grave)

If you want to have only one recording of this great masterwork it is well worth considering
