"Historic but still handsome-sounding Wagner hails from the opening of Munich's Bavarian State Opera 18 years after the bombing. Joseph Keilberth keeps Die Meistersinger all helpfully on the move, Prelude included, and distinguished casting includes Josef Metternich as a minor master and Hans Hotter as Pogner" BBC Music Magazine, July 2010 ***

"Fredrich Lenz's David is beautiful and there are some vocally recognizable former big shots among the lesser Masters. Karl Ostertag, Max Proebstl. Keilberth is on top of his game, with careful attention to nuance and mood, and a welcome preference for brisk tempi. All in all a terrific experience."
