Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Die Fledermaus/ Vienna Philharmonic, Karl Bohm
This is a good Fledermaus but is 35 years old! Come on, fellows, you ought to be able to come up with something newer (and perhaps better) than that. True, it does have Surround Sound, but the characters were not too convincing. The orchestra and ballet are excellent as were the settings. Not a bad choice but I will continue to look for another production



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Ultimate Viennese Production
I'm a great classical music buff and saw this production of a true Austrian Operetta in Vienna many years ago, this is the real stuff as you would see it in Vienna and the Actors are superb, I been waiting for this to be released on DVD for many years, Renate Holm as Maid, is absolutely the best . It is in the original Viennese dialect, subtitles in English.
